FIELD BEANS (inoculate) 
SOY BEANS 
Plant Soy Beans from March until August. 
Most Soys are planted as a companion crop 
with corn and at same time to improve the 
soil. Otootan, Avoyelles, Biloxi, and Laredo 
are most popular for hay and soil improve- 
ment. Mamloxi and White Biloxi are planted 
for crushing beans, hay and soil improvement. 
All are non shatter types, with long growing 
season, enabling them to hang on through 
drought and make when it rains. 
BILOXI SOY BEANS. Has heavy vigorous, 
upright, branching stalk, large stems, large 
leaves, large brown seed that do not shatter 
but little. Very popular for soil improve- 
ment, fall grazing and widely planted in 
corn. Seed twenty to thirty pounds in corn 
or sixty pounds in drills alone. Rates next 
to Otootan in tonnage of hay or green crop 
to acre. It stays green until late. 
WHITE BILOXI (Yellow). Almost identical 
to Brown Biloxi in growth and if anything 
more rank. Just as good for all purposes 
as Brown Biloxi. 
OTOOTAN SOY BEANS. Produces more ton- 
nage of hay or green manure fertility, than 
any variety you can grow. Its long grow- 
ing period, staying green until frost, makes 
it always hit whatever rains occur during 
summer. It has small, viny, branching 
stems and makes the finest of Soy Bean hay, 
superior in some ways to Alfalfa. The seeds 
are small, round black beans, planted 10-15 
pounds to the acre with corn, or 30-60 
pounds alone. 
AVOYELLES SOY BEANS. Originated in 
Avoyelles, Parish, Louisiana, from a field 
of Otootan Soys. It branches like Otootan, 
is semi-viny type, making good hay. Pro- 
ducing seed heavily, it is easy to grow your 
own. It has become the most popular Soy 
Bean in Louisiana and is now spreading to 
adjoining states. Seed are black, similar, 
but larger than Otootan. Plant 20 to 30 
pounds in corn, or 60 pounds alone, 
LAREDO SOYS. The standard hay bean, 
having small upright stalk, growing five 
feet or more on good soil. Plant 30 to 60 
pounds in drills by themselves, or 8 to 12 
pounds in corn. The price per bushel may 
look high but the black seeds are so small 
thet they are useually the cheapest bean to 
plant. 
RED TANNER. A real hay bean, producing 
equal to Otootan. The seed count to the 
pound is slightly less. 
MACOUPIN. An early high-yielding yellow 
penn maturing before Arksoy and Mam- 
OxXl1. 
ARKSOY. Seems the best yellow bean-pro- 
ducer and matures before Mamloxi, but 
later than Macoupin. 
MAMLOXI. Upright branching stalk like 
Biloxi, slightly earlier, non shatter type 
yellow beans, making it a good all purpose 
bean, suitable for hay, soil improvement 
and oil mill beans. It is the most popular 
yellow bean. 
EARLY SPECKLE VELVET BEAN. Is the 
most valuable and popular variety. It is 
very prolific and can be planted later than 
other sorts on account of its early maturity. 
Makes a wonderful growth of vines for pas- 
turing, and is a fine soil improver. As pas- 
ture they fatten horses, hogs, cattle and 
are the greatest milk producers known. 
Plant in corn and forget about what corn 
you cannot find at harvest. Stock will find 
all that is lost. Plant 15 to 80 lbs. per acre. 
BUSH or BUNCH. Very popular as a green- 
manure crop in orchards. A great soil im- 
prover. We buy and offer either Certified 
Bunch Bean Seed or Affidavit Guaranteed, 
yet often there will be a few running beans 
in them. We cannot tell the difference as 
the seeds are exactly alike, hence offer with- 
out warranty and at your risk. 
SEEDERS 
CYCLONE. Easily adjusted. Sows any seed. 
$2.75 each. 
CANE SEED OR SORGHUM 
TREAT SEED WITH CERESAN 

JAPANESE RIBBON CANE (Seed Red). No 
Sorghum compares with it in yield of syrup. 
Usually produces 150 to 200 gallons of 
syrup per acre. Plant when the ground be- 
comes thoroughly warm, in drills 3% to 4 
feet apart. Cultivate same as corn. For 
syrup making, it is best to cut just before 
the seeds ripen, as the plants then contain 
the most saccharine. Sow 8 to 10 pounds 
to an acre for syrup, or 12 to 15 pounds for 
silage. A great tonnage of ensilage or 
green feed can be expected. 
TEXAS SEEDED CROOKNECK CANE (Black 
Seed). Highly prized syrup cane. Its 
rank, vigorous growth of heavy, juicy stalks 
produce a large yield of syrup, frequently 
175 to 200 gallons to the acre. It pro- 
duces syrup of a bright amber color and 
of fine quality and flavor. Stalks have crook 
seed heads. 
EARLY ORANGE. Stalks taller and heavier 
than the amber. Yields good crops for 
green feed. Most kinds sweet, suitable for 
hay or syrup, but strains vary some. 
RED TOP or SUMAC. The great hay cane or 
sweet Sorghum crop for the southwest. 
Its slender stalks and abundant leaves make 
it desirable for hay or green feed. Drought 
resistant as early as Orange or Amber. 
IMPROVED EARLY BLACK AMBER. For 
forage, hay and grazing. Not good for 
syrup, but fine for early green feed. If 
planted early it will yield two cuttings a 
season. If grown with Cowpeas or Soy 
Beans the quality of the hay is improved 
and a more balanced ration may be had. 
SAGRAIN Saccharine Grain Sorghum. Pro- 
duces 8 to 15 tons of silage or if left to 
ripen will produce 20 to 50 bushels of 
grain or 8 to 8 tons of cured hay per acre. 
Relished by all livestock. A safer feed 
crop than corn and withstands neglect and 
adverse conditions. Splendid combina- 
tion with Soy Beans. Oan be best harvested 
with a corn binder, shocked like oats until 
cured. Plant 5 to 10 pounds per acre. 
DOUBLE DWARF YELLOW MILO MAIZE. 
Fine grain crop or substitute for corn. 
Grows 4 feet high and has large grain 
heads. The compact stalk makes harvesting 
much easier. Resistant to drought. Plant 
in 4-foot rows at the rate of 5 to 10 pounds 
to the acre. 
HEGARI. Improved dwarf, non Saccharine, 
Grain Sorghum, shattering little. Dwarf 
growth with large heads of white grains. 
Most popular Grain Sorghum. We prefer 
the Arizona strain on account of better uni- 
formity. Plant 5 to 10 pounds per acre in 
4-foot rows. 
FETERITA. Non Saccharine. Grain Sorghum. 
Very drought resistant. Has some un- 
changing friends. Plant like Hegari. 
SHALLU. Called Egyptian Wheat, a non 
Saccharine Grain Sorghum. Also called 
Chicken Corn. It is popular with home 
chicken raisers. 
KAFFIR CORN. Dwarf, black hulled, white. 
Drought resistant grain. Popular in dry 
areas. Also popular for poultry. 
PEANUTS (Inoculate) 
SPANISH. The best variety for forage and 
fattening hogs and stock. Early, heavy 
bearer; upright bushes growing close, so, 
easily cultivated. 
IMPROVED VALENCIA. finest large va- 
riety. Pods contain 3 or 4 pink skinned 
nuts of handsome appearance. The flavor 
is mild and sweet. 
IMPROVED SPANISH. Same as _ Spanish, 
except much larger nuts, still making only 
two to the hull. We see no reason why it 
is not more desirable for most uses. Plants 
grow upright. 
TENN. REDS. Large runner, 3 to 4 in hull. 
Popular for roasting at home. 
NOTE—Increase yields by dusting plants 
with sulphur dust. 
COWPEAS (Inoculate) 
BRABHAM. A highly disease-resistant, early 
variety that retains foliage exceptionally 
well. It is wilt and nematode resistant. 
WHIPPOORWILL. Very early, prolific, bushy 
sort. Produces good growth of upright 
vines. Easy to cut. 
CLAY. Medium large, of running habit; fine 
for soil improvement. The pods ripen very 
uniformly. 
MIXED. A mixture of the best varieties. 
Grows thicker and produces a better crop of 
vines and forage than do sowings of single 
varieties. Popular for hay, for pea produc- 
tion and fertilizer. 
TABLE PEAS (Inoculate) 
BROWN CROWDER. Earliest, and one of the 
most prolific and best flavored table peas. 
CREAM SUGAR CROWDER (White). One 
of the earliest, most prolific and best 
flavored table peas for eating green and as 
dry shelled peas. 
LADY PEAS. Smallest and beyond question 
the sweetest flavored field pea for choice 
table use. Delicious and tender. Also 
called Rice Pea. 
LARGE BLACK EYE. Best large black-eyed 
table pea. Good either as ‘Snaps’ or shelled. 
Ready in 60 days. Native grown seed look 
sorry, but produce well. 
CREAM PEAS. Similar to Lady Pea but 
much larger. Very popular on markets. 
Growing more popular. 
PURPLE HULL. White pea that is second to 
none, green or dry. 
RAPE 
DWARF ESSEX RAPE. For Spring, Fall or 
Winter planting for quick green forage or 
grazing for hogs and poultry, there is noth- 
ing equal to Dwarf Essex Rape. Makes fine 
“greens” for the table as a substitute for 
turnips or Spinach ‘‘greens’’ when young. 
Grows 10 to 24 inches high and makes a 
crop in 6 to 8 weeks. Sow either in drills 
(4 pounds per acre) or broadcast (8 pounds 
for acre). 
MILLETS 
GERMAN. Best for hay, produces heavily and 
should be cut in bloom. Harvested mature 
for chick feed. Used mostly for late quick 
crop. 
PEARL OR CATTAIL. For green feeding it 
is unexcelled. Greatest and best yielder 
of green forage and it continues to grow 
and produce through the entire season if 
sue sre en yy, enough to prevent its going 
o seed. 
CROTALARIA (Inoculate) 
SPECTABILIS. Great crop for turning under, 
especially in the lower South, Liked by 
fruit and truck growers, not being a host 
for stink bugs. Plant in rows like Soy 
Beans, 3 to 4 pounds per acre. Stock will 
not eat it. Best soil builder known. The 
early is most popular.
