A SPLENDID crop for early green feed. Plant just as soon 
as the frost is out of the ground. Grows quickly. Popular 
way is to plant Canada Peas with an early oats—1 bushels 
of each per acre. Most folks sow each separately. The Peas 
should be drilled first 3 to 3^ inches deep. Then the oats 
to 2 inches deep. If Peas are planted alone 2^ bushels 
are required. Planting with oats supports the vines, makes 
the crop more palatable, more accessible. 
For use in hog runs, a bushel of Canada Peas, a bushel 
of oats, 3 or 4 pounds of rape seed and 7 to 10 pounds 
of sweet clover or alfalfa will cover an acre. Sow early in 
the Spring and the pigs can start on it when the plants 
are 9 or 10 inches high. 
Canada Peas make an abundant pasture for hogs, sheep 
and cattle. Yet trampling of stock destroys much of the 
crop. Some folks let the growth become tall, then mow 
and feed it green or make into hay. Cutting should take 
place when oats is comparatively green and the peas have 
begun to form pods. After this cutting a new growth will 
appear. 
The Canada Pea part of the hay is rich in protein. There 
is no other method of producing so quickly a growth of 
such valuable green feed in the forepart of the Summer as 
Canada Peas and Oats.

FACTS ABOUT SEED INOCULATION 
Inoculate! We cannot impress upon you too strongly the importance of using inoculant. 
You should use it with every legume. It is not difficult nor expensive to apply. It makes a 
profit for you. 
Inoculate! Experimental results show clearly that even if Clover has been grown suc¬ 
cessfully for fifteen years and inoculated every time it was seeded, there will be an in¬ 
crease in yield to much more than pay for the inoculation. This, of course, holds true for 
Alfalfa, or any other legume. 
INOCULATION supplies new bacteria. It helps invigorate those already in the soil. 
It will help to build up your soil. You will get a crop higher in nitrogen, consequently 
higher in protein. When you feed this crop to stock you require less of the high protein 
feeds. Your feed bills are expensive because of the high protein you must buy. 
Inoculate! Don't hesitate to apply inoculation even when seed is broadcast on the fields 
in the Spring. Choose a cloudy day. Use inoculated seed immediately after seed is actually 
inoculated. Give your crops a better opportunity to make additional profits for you.
