Cow Peas Throughout the South this Pea has al- 

 ways been valuable for the improvement 

 of the soil, being to the South what clover is to the 

 North. The seed is ground and used for cattle fodder. 

 The stalks and leaves make excellent fodder when fed 

 green. It is also highly recommended for ensilage when 

 mixed in silo with green com stalks. In the North it 

 is considered superior to clover for plowing under as a- 

 preparation for wheat, as it matures the first year from 

 seeding. Poor, sandj- 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. Price sent on
