considered superior to cowpeas. The seed should not be planted 
until the ground has become warm. Plant a peck to a half 
bushel per acre, in rows 5 feet apart and 2 y 2 to 3 feet apart in 
the row. Also grown with corn. Plant the corn in 5-foot rows 
and 3 feet apart in the row. The Beans are planted between 
the hills, and at the last working they are planted between

pulled from the stalks before the animals are turned in to 
graze. Inoculate your seed for best results. See page 64.
