Extensively used as a fodder crop in the South. Sow after the

2 to 3 inches. One to two bushels are required to plant an acre broad- 
cast, and about half the quantity in drills. 
NEW ERA—An extra early variety.

. Price of either sort, per quart, 20c (by mail, 30c per quart); peck,

FIELD PEAS. 
The Canadian FieJd Peas are very profitable when grown for fod-

bushels peas and 1% bushels oats mixed to the acre, makes a splendid 
soiling crop, relished by all kinds of stock. If sown alone, use 3 bushels 
peas broadcast to the acre.

SAND OR HAIRY 
VETCH 
An exceedingly valuable crop, yielding enor- 
mously on almost any ground. It is biennial, sim- 
ilar in growth to field peas, only that the vines are 
much finer, longer and more thickly covered with 
leaves and side stems. It is not unusual to find 
vines 10 feet long. As a soiling crop it is un- 
equalled, and for spring and fall pasture its value 
cannot be over-estimated. Seed sown in August 
will produce splendid fall pasturage by the middle 
of September, after which a good covering may be 
left on the ground to prevent washing of the soil 
during the winter and early spring months. It 
starts into growth again very early in spring, mak- 
ing a very rapid growth, and will be ready to pas- 
ture again by the middle of May, or if allowed to 
mature will yield a heavy hay crop in June. If 
sown in April or May it may be cut for hay in July. 
It yields enormous crops on rich soil; from 15 
to 20 tons of green fodder to the acre not being 
uncommon, and on sandy, thin land it makes a 
remarkably heavy growth. For planting in young 
orchards and plowing under it possesses great 
value. 
Sow broadcast, either in spring or fall, using 
from 30 to 60 lbs. of seed to, the acre, sowing with 
it about % bushel of oats to support the vines. 
Per Ib., 30c (by mail, 35c per Ib.); 10 Ibs., $2.50; 
100 Ibs., $22.50. 
SOY BEANS. 
A valuable forage crop, and an excellent soil 
renovator. We offer only Northern grown varieties, 
as the larger Southern grown sorts do not mature 
in this section. The seed should not be sown until 
the ground is warm; just after corn planting time. 
Plant in drills 30 inches apart and three or four 
inches apart in the rows, using 8 to 12 quarts to the 
acre for forage, or if for seed use about 2 quarts 
more. 
EARLY BLACK—Of medium height, plants stocky 
and prolific. 
Guelph (Medium Early Green)—A general favorite, 
yielding a good crop of forage. 
ITO SAN (Early Yellow)—A dwarf early variety, 
producing a large quantity of seed. 
Price of the above Soy Beans, per quart, 20c 
(by mail, 30c per quart); peck, $1.25; bushel (60 
Ibs.), $4.00.
