It is also excellent to use for a forage crop and soil 
improver, as it makes a large growth of vines.

Extra Early Blackeye 
These are ten days to two weeks earlier than the 
Large Blackeye, and a most valuable variety. They 
do not run as much as the large Blackeye Pea, but 
grows more in bush shape and hold the peas up 
well off the ground, and the pods are very thickset 
on the vine.

The Most Prolific Cow Pea Known 
It is the most prolific pea known and the greatest 
hay producer. They are of “upright growth,” do 
not commence to crawl until the plant reaches a 
height of IV 2 to 2 feet; pods are long, growing at 
end of vine; pods do not open after ripening. More 
leaves remain on the stalk than on any other va¬ 
riety. On account of their small size, they will seed 
much farther than other varieties. Plant in drills 
or broadcast, the former the most economical. The 
seed is about one-half the size of the Whippoorwill 
variety and is speckled and colored like the former.

TEOSINTE 
A single seed producing from 30 to 60 stalks, each 10 to 12 feet high, gives some idea of what an 
enormous yield may be had from Teosinte. If cut when 4 or 5 feet high, it makes an excellent fodder, 
starts immediately into growth again, and will give several more cuttings as large as the first; we have 
known it to yield five cuttings a season. If sufficient is planted a continuous supply of nutritious green 
feed can be had daily right up to frost. 'Phe leaves are longer and broader than corn, contains 8 to 10 
per cent of sugar, and are greedily eaten by all kinds of stock. It makes splendid ensilage, but is more 
particularly recommended as a continuous cutting green feeding crop. Plant in May or June in drills 
31/^ to 4 feet apart; 2 to 3 lbs. plants an acre. I’o.sfpald, o*. lOe; % lb. 30e; lb. #1.00; 5 lbs. #4..50; 10 lbs.

MUNG BEANS 
A Wonderful Yielder of Beans 
and Hay 
The Mung Bean is an erect, much branched plant, grow¬ 
ing from 3 to 4 feet high. In general appearance it re- 
.sembles the Soja Bean, but branches more, the branches 
spreading out wider. The pods average 2% to 4 inches 
long and are borne out on the ends of the branches. The 
pods grow in clusters of from three to five, each pod con¬ 
taining from 10 to 14 seeds. The beans are small and are 
very rich in protein. The pods range in color from brown 
to black. The foliage is dark green and the leaves and 
foliage do not shatter as badly as do Soja Beans. The 
stem of the plant is much softer than the Soja Bean thus 
making a better forage. The yield of beans is from 8 
to 15 bushels to the acre. Maturing season is about 90 
days. Seed required per acre single rowed and cultivated 
is 12 to 15 pounds and they should be planted the average 
width of a corn planter. The hay is fully equal to Soja 
Beans and Cow Peas in feed value. Postpaid, pkt. 10c; lb.

DWARF ESSEX RAPE 
This crop is highly recommended for pasturage for 
cattle, sheep and hogs, furnishing most rich and nutri¬ 
tious pasturage within 6 to 8 weeks from the time of sow¬ 
ing. The fattening properties of Rape are said to be very 
much better than those of clover. It also makes splendid 
green feed for poultry. For spring sowing, sow as early 
as you can conveniently get it in, the earlier the better. 
If sown broadcast, 6 to 8 lbs. per acre should be used.

JAPANESE BUCKWHEAT 
The best sort for the West. It matures early, resists drought better, and is more vigorous and 
hardy than the old sorts. The grains are almost again as large as the old sorts, and the yield is much 
larger. It should be sown about the first of July, broadcast, at the rate of one-half bushel per acre. 
Excellent as a plant for bees. Postpaid, lb, 15c; 5 lbs. 55c; 10 lbs. OOc; 15 lbs. #1.20. Not prepaid, bii. #1.75.
