Tests of the nutritive value of Soja Beans demonstrate that they are 
decidedly superior to cowpeas for feeding purposes, and we do not won¬ 
der that the demand each year is increasing enormously. It is now 
recognized as one of the most important forage crops for the South, as 
well as a nitrogen gatherer of the greatest value. The plant thrives in 
hot, dry weather, and does equally well on heavy and light soils. Sow 
either broadcast or in drills from May to July. 
Sow broadcast 1 to 1% bushels to the acre of the 
large seeded varieties and % bushel to 3 pecks 
of the small seeded varieties. In drills sow about 
1 peck of the large varieties and about V 2 peck 
of the small varieties. 
Biloxi days. A late variety, and a desirable bean for hogging 
_ down or planting with corn or sorghum. A heavy yielder 
of both forage and seed. Height, 4% feet. Seed brown—medium size. 
Il3.bd.Iondt days. A valuable early all-purpose bean. It pro- 
_;_ duces a splendid quality forage, and heavy yield of 
seed. Height 2^/^ feet. Seed yellow—medium size. 
Mammoth Brown Mammoth Yei- 
-low, but earlier. A good sort to mix with 
Cow Peas, as they mature together. Height 3 feet. Seed brown and 
large. 
Mammoth Yellow days, a popular late variety, extensively 
-;- ^ ” grown for both seed and forage. Very pro¬ 
ductive. Height 3 feet. Seed yellow and large.

Mammoth Yellow Soy Beans 
0-toO-tan days. A desirable late variety, that yields a fine crop of hay, and is well liked in the south. Height 
__ 4% feet. Seed black, small and round. 
Tokio 165 days. Probably the heaviest yielder of both hay and seed, and should be more extensively grown. Height 
— 3 feet. Seed greenish yellow and large. 
Virginia 
125 days. An excellent variety to plant for hay, as it has small stems, and is leafy. Height 3 feet. Seed 
brown and small. 
Early Wilson 
120 days. One of the earliest varieties, and very prolific. A good sort to plant for hay, as it has 
small stems and is leafy. One of the best sorts for the north. Height 3 feet. Seed black, small and fiat. 
BEANS, VELVET (Dolichos Multifiorus.) 
Among the newer forage plants this stands very high, as it is probably the most productive of its class and the best 
adapted to really poor soils. The growth is little less than marvelous, the vines attaining a length of ten or more yards, 
while the pods are borne in enormous clusters. All the experiment stations unite in declaring its nutritive value to be re¬ 
markable. For an acre, three pecks. Write for prices. 
100-Dav Soeckled. A very rapid growing bean; making possibly more growth than any other pea or bean known. 
— ^ ^ * While it seldom matures in 100 days, it is very early, producing purple flowers in clusters. The 
pods are about three inches long, containing speckled beans that are nearly round. Especially recommended for improving 
the soil. Can be sown broadcast, but we think it best to plant in drills and cultivate them once. After they get started 
they soon cover the ground with vines so dense that it is difficult to plow them under. We recommend turning stock on 
them, and let them eat and trample down the vines, which can then be turned under or left until spring. Should be planted 
in May or June, 1 or 2 pecks to the acre in drills, one bushel broadcast. Write for prices. 
BEANS, WHITE or NAVY 
If saved bright, these are usually a most profitable crop, and there is no reason why more should not be grown in the 
South. Being perfectly dwarf and very prolific, an enormous quantity can be produced on an acre, and there is little cost of 
cultivation. As the weevil is likely to attack beans harvested during warm weather, it is best not to plant before the last 
of June. The ground should be well prepared by plowing and harrowing and drills made about two and a half feet apart, 
the beans either drilled or dropped by hand, being covered a little less than two inches. Deep cultivation is undesirable, and 
it is only necessary to keep the surface well loosened. When the majority of the pods have turned yellow the plants should 
be pulled bv the roots and, after being left for a day or two to dry, spread in the barn until thoroughly cured. In Carolina 
they are often very profitably used for replanting missing hills in the cotton fields. For an acre, three pecks. Lb. 20 cts.

BROOM CORN 
Fvpro-rppn This variety grows about eight feet high, has a permanent green color, and is practically free from croo’ J, 
Ycigiccn, irregular brush. It succeeds best on strong, deep soil with good drainage, and as cold is very injurious, 
sowing* must not be made until the ground is warm. To keep the brush in good shape it is necessary to bend the head down 
about the time the seeds mature. Drill in rows three feet apart and cultivate as ordinary corn. For an acre, five pounds.
