Field or Stock Peas 
Field Peas are an important class of Legumes and 
should be more generally planted. Valuable for 
hay crop or fertilizer. Field Peas are usually grown 
with Oats, for hay, a combination equal in feeding 
value to clover hay. They contain more digestible 
crude protein and fat than Alfalfa and Corn. When 
grown with oats, they are threshed together, and 
easily separated with a fanning mill after threshing. 
Drill the Peas in four inches deep, as early as the 
ground can be worked at the rate of 90 to 100 pounds 
per acre. Then, 2 or 3 weeks later, sow the oats, 
drilling it in the other way, 50 pounds per acre. If 
_the oats are sown with the peas, they grow too 
rapidly and check or smother the growth of the peas. 
COLORADO STOCK PEAS (White)—Are extensively 
grown in the mountain districts, are very hardy 
and if mixed with oats or other grains, make very 
nutritious hay. If permitted to mature, make ex- 
cellent feed for fattening sheep or hogs. 
Postpaid (5 Ibs. 75ec) (10 Ibs. $1.25). 
COLORADO STOCK PEAS (Blackeye)—Similar to 
the White Colorado Stock Peas, except each pea 
is marked with a small black eye. They provide 
good forage and hay and are valuable as a soil- 
age crop.

SOUTHERN BLACK-EYE PEAS—tThe dry peas are 
excellent for table use, and find ready sale during 
the winter. They are very hardy and prolific. Vines 
make excellent forage or hay. This pea has proven 
a great success in the dry land or non-irrigated 
districts of the west. Its roots seem to penetrate 
deeper and stand drought and heat better. Espe- 
cially adapted to hot dry non-irrigated districts.

Dwarf Essex Rape. 
An excellent forage crop for Sheep and Hogs, be- 
longs to the cabbage family. It produces a mass of 
broad, smooth leaves which are greatly relished 
by Sheep and Hogs. It can be pastured off and 
when stock is removed, if not eaten too close, it 
will grow up again and give a second crop. It does 
best on rather moist land, but will do well in any 
good soil. The seed is usually sown broadcast, using 
about 5 pounds per acre. Sow from the first to the 
middle of August. If sown broadcast on corn ground 
after the last cultivation it makes good pasture 
after the corn is removed. 
Postpaid (5 Ibs. $1.50) (10 Ibs. $2.75). 
Sunflower 
Quite extensively grown for feeding. Sow in rows 
3 to 3% feet apart and thin to a foot apart in the 
rows. Treat the same as corn. Use 10 to 12 pounds 
of seed per acre. Sunflower are often used to mix 
with corn when filling a silo. It is claimed that 
the mixture makes a better ensilage than pure corn. 
MAMMOTH RUSSIAN—The variety commonly used 
to produce seed and for filling silos. The heads 
are often one foot across and are filled with 
striped seed which makes most excellent feed for 
poultry.

HIGH QUALITY SEEDS 
Soy Beans 
Soy Beans are valuable for hay, seed, or for soil 
improvement, are easy to grow and are valuable for 
soil too poor for other legumes. They withstand both 
drought and heat well, make a good emergency crop, 
as they can be sown late. They deposit large quan- 
tities of nitrogen in the soil, building up poor soils 
on which clover or alfalfa cannot be grown. 
Soy Beans, as a hay crop, are higher in protein 
content than clover, hay, and for dairy cattle, the 
hay is equal to alfalfa hay. They make good ensilage 
grown with Corn and are also used for hog pasture. 
CULTURE— Soy Beans_ require 
about the same treatment as corn, and 
will grow on various types of soil, 
even in ground containing too much 
alkali for corn. Do not plant Soy 
Beans too early. Corn planting time 
is about right. Seed should be inoculated with Nitragin 
for best results. Soy Beans may be drilled like grain or 
broadcasted using 90 to 100 pounds of seed per acre. If 
in rows like Corn and cultivated, use 30 to 40
