Vetch, Sand, Winter or Hairy. (Vicia Villosa). Sow in early fall or spring, usually with rye for sup¬ 
port; grows three to four feet and is ready to cut as soon as bloom appears, and again for seed.

Peas, Canada Field. (See page 28). Price per quart, 25c.; per Bu. (60 lbs.), $4.75.

Used for plowing under, sow 90 lbs. per acre. Price per lb., 13c.; per Bu. (60 lbs.), $3.00. 
Soja Bean, Hollybrook or Midwest. We have found this to be one of the most desirable sorts 
for our northern states for use either as a forage crop or plowing in. The pods develop sufficiently 
if sown in May or June to add greatly to the food value. Price per lb., 11c.; per Bu. (60 lbs.'), $2.50.
