Prices variable. Write for prices in large quantities. 
The United States Department of Agriculture says no one thing will add more to the agricultural wealth of the south 
than the growing of cow peas. They are not only one of the south’s most economical crops for hay and enriching the soil, 
but pound for pound, cow pea hay is nearly as valuable as clover or alfalfa hay, and contains several times as much digest- 
able protein as timothy hay, and horses and mules fed on well cured pea vine hay through the winter can do without grain. 
Cow Peas are usually planted in May, June or early July at the rate of from 1 to 1% bushels per acre. When the vines 
are to be saved for hay they should be cut when the pods are turning yellow, as the hay cures easier and more rapidly at 
that stage than when cut earlier. All of our cow peas are recleaned, and are always high in purity and germination.

CANADA FIELD PEAS 
These are very valuable for stock feeding, and are being more largely used each season. They are planted at the rate 
of two bushels to the acre broadcast, being usually sown with oats, a combination which is extremely satisfactory. A bushel 
and a half of each to the acre is sufficient, the peas, of course, being plowed in to the usual depth and the oats put in after 
wards with a harrow. Sowings may be made as early as February in ordinary years, and it is usually safe to put them in 
at any time up to the middle of March. They make a quick growth and produce an immense amount of the best forage at 
a time when feed is apt to be particularly scarce.* When grown with oats they are very easily cured, and all kinds of stock 
are fond of hay, the nutritive value of which is remarkably high. Bushel 60 lbs. Write for prices. 
AUSTRIAN WINTER PEAS 
Considered by some southern growers equal to Hairy Vetch as a winter hay crop or for improving the soil. In the 
south they mature earlier than Vetch, making it possible to follow the peas with cotton. They should be planted in Sep¬ 
tember or October, and can usually be plowed under in time for spring crop. They may also be planted in February for 
forage crop. Bushel 60. lbs. For an acre, when sown alone, 60 lbs. When sown with 1 bushel of Rye or 2 bushels of Oats, 
30 lbs. Write for prices.
