FIELD SEED (Continued) 
All prices quoted are subject to change without notice. 
WHITE KAFFIR CORN 
Sow 10 pounds for grain and 1 bushel per acre for forage. 
Kaffir Corn has become more valuable every year because 
of its drought resisting qualities. Grows 4 to 5 feet high, 
very stocky and leafy; valuable alike for forage and grain. 
Plant from March to August, in rows 8 feet apart, drilling 
seed thinly like sorghum. If wanted for grain, principally, let 
heads mature on the stalk and then the whole stalk may be 
cut for fodder after the seed heads have been cut. If wanted 
for fodder, mainly, cut down the stalks when the first seed 
heads begin to appear, leaving 4 to 5 inches of stubble. From 
this stubble will spring a second growth, making an excellent 
crop for forage and a fair crop of grain. Stalks keep green 
and juicy to the last. For poultry feed and small grain it is 
unexcelled.

CHICKEN CORN—WHITE SEEDED (Egyptian Wheat) 
Sow 8 to 10 pounds per acre. 
This is a sorghum with extra large, loose, bushy heads, 
covered thickly with small grains. If left standing, the grains 
drop off in a scattering manner, and the chickens gather 
them. If grown on a large scale, the large, well filled heads 
can be cut at maturity and fed to the poultry as desired. It 
is best to sow the seed thinly in three to four foot rows, leav- 
ing two to three plants to every three feet of row. If planted 
in small batches it is best to plant near the chicken houses 
so chickens can feed on the seeds as they fall. White Seeded 
Chicken Corn, with ease of growth, sure crop and heavy 
yields, will go a long way towards solving the poultry feed 
problem. The cheapest and best chicken feed you can grow.

COWPEAS 
Sow 1 bushel per acre. 
Cowpeas may be sown any time from March to September 
broadcast or in drills 3 to 4 feet apart. From 1 to 2 bushels 
per acre are used in broadcasting and from 2 to 8 pecks for 
seeding in drills. or considerably less of the small-seeded 
varieties. Inoculate with Nitragin. (See page 51.) 
Field Varieties of Cowpeas 
Due to the unstable condition of the market, we were un- 
able to make price quotations on field varieties of Cowpeas 
when this catalog went to press. Write for prices, indicating 
variety and quantity desired. 
Brabham. The Brabham Cowpea is absolutely immune 
from wilt and root-knot which attack some other varieties, 
makes fine, vigorous growth of vines, is early, and, where 
planted in March, April, or May, two good cuttings of hay 
can be made. Also a very good soil builder. 
Whippoorwill. | Very early, prolific, makes good growth of 
vines, and is a good variety for general purposes. 
Mixed. The advantage claimed for sowing Mixed Cowpeas 
is that they produce an exceedingly heavy growth of vines 
for forage or soil improvement. 
TABLE VARIETIES OF COWPEAS 
Two-Crop Conch. Our Two-Crop Conch Pea matures and is 
edible in sixty-eight days from the time it is planted. The 
peas grow in what might be classified as a bunch type, grow- 
ing upright in a bush about twenty-four inches tall. This 
variety will have some runners which is characteristic of most 
table peas, however, this depends largely upon the amount of 
moisture available. This variety, however, does not make long 
spreading vine growth as do other strains. This characteristic 
is very important as its upright growth keeps the pods off the 
ground and prevents weather damage. Because of this bush 
form, this variety is easier to pick and they are classified as 
“Two-Crop” inasmuch as they mature a crop for eating pur- 
poses early, and continue right on bearing, enabling two crops 
to be grown from a planting in one season.

Six Weeks or Two-Crop Clays. Also called Small Cream 
Crowder (Bunch.) Will produce green table peas in six 
weeks. Its earliness makes it desirable to plant for early mar- 
ket. It is equally as good as large cream crowder and 1na- 
tures dried peas in about 65 days. Will make two crops on 
good land in one season.

Brown or Sugar Crowder. An early, edible podded variety, 
used also for green shelled peas and for dried peas. Plant 
dark green, thick stemmed and branching. The large pods 
are round, plump, blunt, medium green, filled with brownish 
peas, crowded tightly together. Seeds smooth, buff-brown 
with darker colored brown eye. Used also as a forage crop 
and for soil improvement. Our special strain of this variety 
has been especially selected for broader, flatter, thicker pods 
which do not fit too tightly around the seeds and shell out 
easier than the regular narrow type pods.

Thin Shelled Purple Hull. Vines make a very vigorous branch- 
ing growth, and do best when planted in three foot rows. If 
planted close, plants go all to vine and do not bear well. Very 
early and productive. Pods ripen to a deep purple color, 
are very large, long, slightly curved, well filled with large 
seeds of high edible quality.

table Pea as well as a splendid soil-improver and stock Pea. 
Pods are long, and the seed is very large and speckled.

California Blackeye. This is one of the best varieties of 
cowpeas for table use. Very early and very prolific. A stand- 
ard heavy-bearing, strong-growing variety for easy growth.

Extra Early Ramshorn Blackeye Peas. This is the earliest 
maturing large Blackeye pea. Matures sweet tender peas 
two months after planting and continues to bear if green 
peas are kept picked. The prolific heavy yield, along with 
attractive appearance of the large mature peas, extreme 
earliness, and good keeping qualities make it a most popular 
Blackeye pea for Florida trucking. The delicious flavor and 
large long pods which are easily shelled make it very popu- 
lar with home gardeners. The vine produces large leaves 
with a very vigorous growth.

Early Wilt-Resistant Ramshorn Blackeyes. Matures green 
peas in about 63 days; dried peas 73 days. Extremely prolific. 
It makes a tremendous number of long pods for its small 
upright vine. It is uniform in size, growth and maturity. 
They have a delicious flavor and are the blackeye peas for 
early market.

Giant Wilt-Resistant Ramshorn Blackeyes. Matures green 
peas in about 70 days; dried peas in 80 days. The most vig- 
orous and heaviest yielding edible pea. The peas are almost 
twice the size of ordinary blackeyes. They can be planted in 
wider rows, require less seed per acre and are best for the 
main or late crop. It is a dual purpose pea, producing a tre- 
mendous yield of green and dry peas, yet makes more vine 
growth and is better for green manure or hay than Iron, 
Brabham and other cowpeas. Home gardeners should plant 
both strains, but for the early market the Early Wilt-Re- 
sistant strain is best.
