COWPEAS UNDER CULTIVATION 



This picture shows another form of 

 leguminous plant that has become 

 popular in comparatively recent years. 

 It is of solid and compact growth, and 

 makes a remarkable cover or forage 

 crop. Like the other legumes, its 

 product is rich in nitrogen, a fact long 

 recognized but the explanation of 

 which has been given only in 

 comparatively recent years.
