MISCELLANEOUS FARM SEEDS 
Throughout the South this pea has 
Cow Peas always ‘been valuable for the tm- 
provement of the soil, being to the South what 
clover is to the North. The seed is ground and 
uSed for cattle feed. The stalks and leaves make 
excellent fodder when fed green. It is also highly 
recommended for ensilage when mixed in silo with 
vreen corn Stalks. In the north it is considered 
superior to clover for plowing under as a prepara- 
tion for wheat, as it matures the first year from 
seeding. Poor sandy soil may be made into a fertile 
loam by plowing under a crop of Cow Peas. Plant 
seed in a thoroughly pulverized warm soil. If 
wanted to plow under for manure, sow in drills one 
foot apart. If grown for fodder or for the seed, 
plant three and one-half feet apart and cultivate 
thoroughly.-
