Soy Beans in Corn 
Velvet Beans in Corn 
INOCULATE SOY BEANS WITH NITRAGIN “S” 
You have read a great deal about Soy Beans, and the Southwest is planting 
a larger acreage each year. Soy Beans require the same soil as corn, and in some 
instances this wonderful bean will make a satisfactory growth on poorer land 
than corn, when the seed is inoculated with Nitragin. It is a crop of many uses, 
one of the best legumes and therefore a good soil builder. 
MAMMOTH YELLOW 
A large yellow bean and a dandy yielder and 
one of the most popular varieties for crushing. 
Possibly the best established and most popular 
variety in the South. Plant 30 to 45 pounds 
to the acre for seed ; 1 to 1% bushels for hay. 
Lb., 25c; 2 lbs., 45c, postpaid. Not prepaid, 
20 lbs., $1.40. Ask for prices in larger lots. 
LAREDO SOY BEANS 
One of the first Soy Beans to be planted in 
the South. A small black bean and classed as 
one of the best hay varieties. Makes a fine 
hay and can be planted earlier than other 
varieties. Plant one-third bu.shel to acre for 
seed; three pecks or more to acre broadca.st.

BILOXI SOY BEANS 
A brown bean and holds in pod better than 
any other variety. Excellent for planting in

MUNG BEANS 
INOCULATE SEED WITH NITRAGIN “E” 
An exceptionally good hay crop and a won¬ 
derful soil improver and very drought resist¬ 
ant. About 5 pounds will plant an acre. Best 
results are obtained when planted in 2Vi- to 
3-foot rows, 4 to 5 inches in the drill. For 
hay purposes we advise planting in April.

VELVET BEANS 
INOCULATE SEED WITH NITRAGIN “E” 
Velvet Beans make a greater growth of 
vines than any other known forage plant in 
the same length of time, far surpassing any 
of the cow peas in growth. They should be 
planted in rows 3 to 5 feet apart, at the rate 
of one-half bushel to three pecks per acre. 
They are also fine for planting in corn. These 
Beans make wonderful grazing for all kinds 
of stock, and even after frost has killed the 
vines, stock will eat vines and beans and 
fatten on them. Such vines and roots as are 
left by stock should be plowed under, as they 
are very rich in fertilizing value. 
EARLY SPECKLED OR 100-DAY VINING 
VARIETY. Lb., 25c; 2 lbs., 45c, postpaid. 
Not prepaid, 20 lbs., $1.50. Ask for prices on 
larger quantities. 
It Pays to Grow Cover Crops 
Many farmers fail to realize that every crop taken off their land car¬ 
ries with it plant food from the soil. Unless some method of returning 
this plant food is practiced, the supply gradually diminishes until the 
land can no longer furnish the required food and the crop yield grows 
smaller, finally resulting in complete failure. 
VETCH 
INOCULATE SEED WITH NITRAGIN “C” 
Vetch is another splendid variety of forage plant. It is very hardy, is valuable 
as a winter cover crop to prevent leaching and for forage and fertilizer purposes. 
HAIRY WINTER VETCH (Vicia Villosa). 
May be sown either in spring or fall. When 
sown in spring it is ready to be cut by July: 
the second growth will make excellent pa.sture 
for late summer and fall use. Sow 50 to 60 
pounds of Vetch with the same amount of oats, 
using the o.ats to support the Vetch. Lb., 25c; 
2 lbs., 45c, postpaid. Not prepaid, 20 lbs., 
$2.50. Ask for prices on larger quantities. 
COMMON VETCH (Vicia .Sativa). About the 
same as Hairy Vetch except not quite so hardy. 
Sow in spring as well ns fall. Lb., 25c: 2 lbs., 
40c, postpaid. Not prepaid, 20 lbs., $1.80. Ask 
for prices on larger quantities. 
PURPLE VETCH (Vicia Atropurpurea). Re¬ 
sembles the Hairy Vetch, having a purple 
flower. It is slightly less hardy than the other 
Vetches, but goes through ordinary winters 
very successfully. Sow the same as Hairy 
Vetch. A fine feed for milch cows in the spring 
is to sow a mixture of Vetches, Au.strian Win¬ 
ter Peas and Oats and cut these as needed. 
Lb., 25c; 2 Ihs., 45c, postpaid. Not prepaid, 20 
lbs., $2.40. Ask for prices on larger quantities. 
HUNGARIAN VETCH (Vicia Pannonica). 
Hungarian Vetch is earlier than Hairy Winter 
and is growing in demand. This variety is not 
recommended for poor sandy soils, does excep¬ 
tionally well on better soils. Lb., 25c: 2 lbs., 
45c, postpaid. Not prepaid. 20 lbs., $2.00. 
Please ask for prices in larger lots.
