Laredo Soy Beans 
At last the ideal Soy Bean for the entire South seems to 
have been developed. The Laredo matures reasonably early, 
does not shatter out badly and will make a crop under con¬ 
ditions that would spell ruin to Cowpeas or other Soy Beans. 
Yields of four tons of hay have been obtained, quality al¬ 
most equal to Alfalfa; as much as 55 bushels of Beans have 
been harvested per acre. 
One bushel will plant 6 to 8 acres in rows 3 to 3% feet 
apart, depending upon how thick you want them. We know 
of one farmer who got a perfect stand using one bushel to 
12 acres. They should not be covered deeper than 1% inches; 
a half-inch is better. One or two cultivations to keep down 
the grass and weeds is advisable. The Delta Experiment 
Station reports splendid results from sowing Laredo March 
25th to April 10th with a wheat drill on oats planted prev¬ 
ious fall. This drill helped instead of hurting the oats, and 
the beans were not large enough when the oats were harv¬ 
ested to interfere with the binder. Sow seed broadcast at 
rate of one bushel per acre; when sown in drills sow about 
1 gallon or 2 gallons per acre. Qt., 25c, postpaid. Not pre¬ 
paid, qt., 15c.

Mammoth Brown 
A fine big foliage variety, succeeds well in this section; 
won’t shatter. The plant is upright, with heavy branches; a 
big yielder of beans and foliage. Does well on all soils. It is 
a medium early variety; matures its beans in about 110 
days. 
The Mammoth Brown Soy Beans, like other varieties, is 
high in protein content, and the hay is equal to alfalfa. They 
make wonderful ensilage when grown with corn, and are 
also excellent for hog pasture. We recommend this variety 
to be one of the best to plant with corn for silage. It is erect 
in growth, having no runners to wrap up everything in sight. 
It should be planted in rows 3 to 5 feet apart and 8 to 10 
inches in the row; sow 10 to 12 pounds to an acre. Mammoth 
Brown Soys grow 4 to 5 feet high and are covered with a 
dense mass of foliage that does not shed easily. When sown 
broadcast, use 1 to 1*4 bushels of seed to the acre. Qt., 25c, 
postpaid. Not prepaldj qt., 15c.

Biloxi Soy Beans

a dense mass of foliage that does not shed easily. A heavy 
yielder of beans; the oil and protein contents are high; a 
fine bean for hogging down, for planting with corn or 
sorghum and for oil. The beans do not shatter, will stay 
in the pods until February. Late in maturing, requiring a 
long season to mature, but makes an unusually luxuriant 
growth; sow seed broadcast at rate of two bushels to an 
icre. In drills, sow *4 bushel to the acre. Qt., 40c, postpaid.

Mamredo Soy Beans 
Produced from a hybrid of Mammoth Yellow and Laredo 
Soys at Delta Branch Ex. Sta. Shatters comparatively little, 
upright bushy plant, splendid for grazing and hay; its ex¬ 
tra earliness is very valuable. Each of the characteristics is 
desirable; try some of these sure. Qt., 50c, postpaid. Not pre¬ 
paid, qt., 40c.

Otootan Soy Beans 
Few Soy Beans can equal Otootan as a hay maker. Its late 
maturity is more than overcome by the abundant growth— 
5 feet or more in long growing seasons—its fine stems and 
abundant foliage, and the fine texture of its hay. It differs 
from most varieties in having many leafy branches instead 
of a coarse central stem, making it easy to cut. Planted in 
3-foot rows, they will cover the land with a mass of foliage. 
Recommended for any southern sections which have a long 
arrowing season. Qt., 50c, postpaid. Not prepaid, qt., 40c.

Mammoth Yellow Soy Beans 
Late maturing yet extensively grown for both beans and 
forage, both of which it yields in greater abundance. It 
grows more than three feet high, is erect in growth and 
can be cut with a mower. Valuable for both beans and for¬ 
age. Mammoth Yellow is one of the largest growers among 
Soy Beans, and the most widely grown variety and excels 
in yield of bean and hay; sow seed in May broadcast at the 
rate of two bushels to the acre; when planted in drills use 
*4 bushel seed to the acre. Qt., 25c, postpaid. Not prepaid, 
qt., 15c.

Virginia Soy Beans 
On account of its abundant growth and large yield of 
beans the Virginia makes most excellent hay and ensilage. 
As it is about 20 days earlier than Mammoth Yellow, it can 
be grown farther north and throughout the corn belt. The 
vines make a fine growth, are filled with pods, stand about 
3 feet high, are easy to cut and easy to cure. The stems 
being fine and the leafage profuse adapts it particularly 
well for hay making; sow broadcast one and one-half bush¬ 
els to an acre; in drills *4 bushel to an acre. Qt., 25c, post¬ 
paid. Not prepaid, qt., 15o.
