CANADA FIELD PEAS 
Canada Field Peas make a fattening and 
milk producing food that will grow on land 
that will not produce a grain crop, and at the 
same time improve the soil by gathering and 
storing nitrogen — in this respect it is almost 
equal to the clovers. They yield heavy crops 
th; t may be either grazed or made into hay 
that stock eat greedily and thrive on. They 
grow 4 to 5 feet high, but can be grazed when 
6 to 10 inches high. If not grazed too closely 
a second growth may be had, and sometimes 
a third growth if conditions are favorable. 
Pasturing the peas makes them stool out bet¬ 
ter and results in a finer growth of vine and 
a better hay. 
Culture — Sow early in March, one bushel 
to acre and plow in 4 inches deep, after which 
drill in one bushel of Rust-Piroof Oats to the 
acre to hold the vines off the ground; if (sown 
alone sow iy 2 bushel to the acre. Market 
price.

three to four feet high and will mature in 
about three months. Takes the place of hay 
and makes a wonderful green feed in dry 
seasons. Market price.

est variety of all; grows from 6 to 8 feet

some early harvested crops. Sow V 2 bushel 
per acre. 
RAPE 
DWARF ESSEX — Grown extensively for 
foliage, especially for sheep. Sown in June 
or July, it yields a bounteous fall pasturage, 
011 which sheep and young stock fatten with 
marvelous rapidity. If sown broadcast, about 
5 lbs. per acre will be required; if drilled, 
considerable less will do. We have the true 
Essex Dwarf, which should not be confounded 
with worthless annual. Per lb. 10c; 100 lbs. 
$ 8 . 00 . 
SOY BEANS 
A valuable plant for bringing nitrogen into 
the soil. It is also excellent for green or 
dried fodder, and the seed is very rich in 
protein, making an excellent dairy feed when 
balanced with other grains. Seed should be 
sown during the months of May or June, us¬ 
ing at least one bushel to the acre, when 
sown broadcast, or when sown in drills, 2V 2 
feet apart, about three pecks to the acre. 
We handle two varieties— Wilson and Man- 
chu. The Wilson is a well-known variety in 
Pennsylvania for an early hay crop. It has 
fine stems, produces abundant foliage, and is 
also suitable for silage. The Manchu is a 
good all-purpose variety. Valuable for forage 
or hogging down. Market price. 
COWPEAS 
One of the best soil-enrichers, taking the 
nitrogen from the air and storing it in the 
soil; valuable also for hay, forage, ensilage or 
turning under. They should be sown in this 
latitude in May or June, using, when sown 
broadcast, one and one-half to two bushels to 
the acre. Many different varieties are grown 
in the United States, but the most suitable 
for sowing in the North are the Whippoorwill. 
Market price. 
SUGAR CANE 
EARLY AMBER — Used largely for fodder; 
rich in saccharine, and the best of dairy foods. 
Lb. 10c; per bu. $3.50.

good shape.
