PERFECTION BRAND SEEDS—Since 1906 
Field or Cow Peas 
THE GREAT SOIL IMPROVER—Makes poor land rich; makes good land more productive; 
also makes a splendid and nutritious green forage or hay crop, enriching the soil even when the 
crop is cut off. Cow Peas make one of the largest yielding and most nutritious crops grown. 
There is also no surer or cheaper means of improving and increasing the productiveness of the 
soil and it is really considered more economical and the best way is to cut off the crop of vines 
and cure them as a forage or hay crop and then turn under the stubble and roots. Even when 
the crop is cut off, the land is left in very much better mechanical condition and the productive¬ 
ness very much increased over what it was before the crop was grown. 
Mung Beans 
Mung Beans 
Mung Beans bid fair to outrival anything 
yet discovered as a hay, forage and soil im¬ 
proving crop. Mung Beans are drouth resistant 
and have made wonderful crops of hay and 
forage where cow peas and soy beans have 
been killed off completely by the blistering and 
withering heat of an extended summer’s 
drouth. 
Mung Beans mature about fifteen days earlier 
than Soy Beans and Cow Peas and invariably 
have produced larger tonnage of hay and 
forage as well as large production of beans. 
Grows 4 to 6 feet tall and is one of the finest 
soil improvers discovered. 2 lbs. of Mung 
B’eans will produce about 2 tons of cured hay. 
Requires about 4 lbs. per acre. Plant in rows 
about 31/^ feet apart and 2 to 4 inches apart 
in the rows. Trial pkt., 10c; lb., 25c; 5 lbs., 
$1.00, postpaid. Larger quantities, write for 
prices. 
Austrian Winter Peas 
An outstanding winter legume cover crop. 
Plant in September or October and plow under 
in the spring before time to plant the spring 
crop. It makes more growth in the spring 
than Vetch, produces more green material per 
acre and the vines decay more rapidly. If 
planted alone sow 60 lbs. per acre. If with 
Rye or Barley, use 30 lbs. of Peas with one 
bushel of grain. Lb., 20c, postpaid; by freight 
or express, Ib., 10c; 50 lbs,, $4.00. 
BLACK-EYED PEAS—A very fine table pea 
much in demand by market gardeners. Pods 
are of good size and the peas are crowded in 
the pod. Lb., 25c, postpaid. 
NEW ERA—Probably the best sort for the 
West and North ; can be sown after the wheat 
is taken off the ground and still produce a 
good crop of forage peas, besides increasing the 
fertility of the soil for the succeeding crop, 
and leaving the ground mellow and free from 
weeds. Ask for prices. 
WHIPPOORWILL PEAS—A favorite in the 
South generally. A vigorous, healthy grower, 
yielding an abundant crop of forage and grain. 
Write for prices. 
CREAM CROWDER PEAS—It is not only 
one of the earliest to mature, but also makes 
a large and vigorous growth, and is one of 
the most prolific and best for edible peas, both 
for home use and market. The size of the pea 
is large and they are of most delicious flavor 
when cooked, and preferable for table use to 
other varieties. This also makes a quantity of 
vine. Price, lb., 30c, postpaid. 
BROWN SUGAR CROWDER PEAS—One of 
the most valuable varieties for table use. Heavy 
bearers of the finest quality. Lb., 25c, postpaid. 
By freight or express, lb., 20c; 10 lbs., $1.50. 
GALLAVANT OR LADY—The peas are 
small in size, of very fine flavor; superior in 
qualities to the Black-Eyed Peas. Very prolific. 
Price per lb., 25c, postpaid. By express or 
freight, lb., 20c; 10 lbs., $1.50. 
A Field of Perfection Brand Cow Peas 
Peanuts Y etches 
Sunflower 
MAMMOTH RUSSIAN—Produces very large 
heads, which are completely filled with the 
striped grains. It succeeds everywhere, and re¬ 
quires very little rain to insure a good crop. 
It makes a good food for stock and cannot be 
equaled as a food for poultry. Plant when the 
ground has become warm at the rate of 22 
pounds to the acre. Lb., 35c, postpaid; by 
freight or express, lb., 30c; 10 lbs., $2.00. 
Peanuts—Mammoth Jumbo 
Culture—Prepare the ground well, laying it 
off in rows, with a shovel-plow; the rows 
should be 3% feet apart, and put two kernels 
to the hill, which are about 1 foot apart. Cul¬ 
tivate thoroughly, and keep the land as level 
as possible. Three-fourths of a bushel of un¬ 
shelled nuts will seed an acre. 
MAMMOTH JUMBO—This variety grows to 
an astonishing size. The plants make compact 
bushes about 18 inches high, with heavy, erect 
stalks and large leaves. The giant nuts have 
thick, heavy-ribbed shells. Lb., 25c, postpaid. 
Write for prices in quantities. 
TENNESSEE RED—The finest variety 
grown. Especially adapted to the black waxy 
land, as well as the sandy soil. The nuts con¬ 
tain three large kernels in each pod, and are 
enormously productive. Lb., 20c, postpaid. 
SPANISH—In addition to their value for 
gi’owing for nuts, these are very largely used 
in the South as a forage and fattening crop 
for hogs and other stock. They are early to 
mature, very pi'oductive, and in the far South, 
where they can be planted during March and 
April, two crops can be made in one year, the 
second crop being planted early in July, the 
tops making a hay crop and the nuts a grain 
crop. They grow more compact than the Vir¬ 
ginia peanuts, making it possible to grow them 
closer, making cultivation easier also. This va¬ 
riety frequently yields 60 bushels of marketable 
peanuts and 2 tons of hay per acre. Lb., 20c, 
postpaid. 
Fall Planting 
During fall months we have large stocks of 
Northern-grown Seed Rye, Southern Abruzzi 
Rye, Certified Wheat, Certified Winter Barley, 
Austrian Winter Peas, Hairy Vetch, all Clovers 
and Grasses. If interested in Seeds for fall 
planting we will appreciate your inquiries. 
SAND VETCH—(Also called Winter and 
Hairy Vetch)—This legume is the fai’mer’s ev- 
er-ready friend. Sand Vetch is a very popular 
forage plant, and is rapidly becoming popular 
as year after year farmers are learning more 
of its value. It is an annual, but re-sows it¬ 
self, and will come up year after year on the 
same ground. Vetch is a legume, belonging to 
the pea family, but the vines are much longer 
and the foliage more abundant. It is noted for 
its extreme hardiness, wintering more certainly 
than wheat. It remains green all winter under 
the snow, and is ready for pasturing earli^^- 
than anything else. Drouth, heat and cold do 
not affect it. It is largely eaten by all kinds 
of stock. We earnestly recommend farmers to 
try it. Lb., 30c, postpaid; by freight or ex¬ 
press, lb., 25c; 10 lbs., $1.85.
