P lant HECKLE'S 

For Hay and Soil Improvement! 
THE WHIPPOORWILL (90 Days). Also known 
as speckled. The seeds are buff, brown or 
grey, depending on type, and are speckled; 
they are spoken of as bush peas, but will 
make vines when planted on rich land; on 
poor soil they produce few vines and many 
peas. The plants grow upright, two to five 
feet tall—half bushy or semi-erect. The Whip- 
poorwill is the most popular general purpose 
stock pea for either seed or hay. Postpaid, pt., 
20c; qt., 35c; 2 gal., 55c; gal., 90c. 
CLAY (110 Days). The seeds are buff colored, 
medium size, the plant is large, vigorous grow- 
ing and of vining or running habit, pods are 
large and yellowish. The Clay pea is used 
mostly for soil improving or green manuring. 
Postpaid, pt., 20c; qt.,.35c; 12 gal., 55¢; gal., 90c. 
RED RIPPER (110 Days). Seeds are red, it is 
a vigorous growing vining pea. Like the Clay 
or Black, makes fine yield of long vines. Shy 
seeder, very popular where known. Planted 
mostly for soil improving and in mixtures for 
hay. Postpaid, pt., 25c; qt., 40c; 2 gal., 60c; 
gal., $1.00. 
NEW ERA (80 Days). The seeds have a blue 
cast with many black specks—an early matur- 
ing upright growing variety, very prolific pro- 
ducer of peas, small vines cure quickly, splen- 
did for hay. Seeds are smaller than Whippoor- 
will and it does not require as many to plant 
an acre. Postpaid, pt., 20c; qt., 35c; Y2 gal., 55ce; 
gal., 90c. 
BLACK (120 Days). Seeds jet black, viny or 
running, making a fine growth of vines and 
leaves—shy seeder, splendid land improver, 
most valuable as a forage crop; used also as 
a general purpose pea. If broadcast for hay 
mix some upright-growing pea with them to 
hold vines off the ground for cutting. There is 
also a bush variety Black Pea. Postpaid, pt., 
25¢e; qt., 40c; 14 gal., 60c; gal., $1.00. 
MIXED PEAS (Hay 90 Days). For hay and 
soil improving, our mixtures consist of upright 
and vining peas—the upright growing peas, 
such as Whippoorwill or New Era (when used) 
hold the vining or running peas such as Black, 
Clay and Red Rippers off the ground, which 
makes it much easier to cut for hay. Postpaid, 
pt., 20c; qt., 35c; 2 qal., 55c; qal., 90c.

10 pounds sudan grass with one bushel cow 
peas to the acre.

VELVET BEANS 
RUSSELL-HECKLE « 
VELVET BEANS 
The most valuable of all varieties and the 
general favorite for all sections. This variety is 
the quickest grower and the most prolific. 
Matures in from 90 to 100 days. Sow in drills 
in May, one peck to 4 bushel to the acre. 
In the South, Velvet Beans are used very 
largely for winter grazing, and for that pur- 
pose is one of the best crops for the light soils 
and the long season of the Gulf Coast and 
Florida. They should be allowed to grow until 
December, or until killed by frost, after which 
they can be grazed through the winter, as the 
vines, leaves and pods decay very slowly and 
remain palatable a long time. Early in the 
year, the crop remaining is plowed under as a 
soil improver, and adds very materially to the 
productiveness of the soil. 
As a soil improver they are considered 
superior to cowpeas, as they make so much 
larger growth and so much heavier amount of 
foliage. The proportion of nitrogen contained 
in the vines is about the same as cowpeas, 
but as the yield is so much greater, the total 
amounts of nitrogen and humus added to the 
soil are correspondingly larger. A crop of 
three tons will add as much nitrogen to the 
soil as will a ton of cottonseed meal, while the 
amount of humus will be three times as great. 
Postpaid, pt., 25c; qt., 40c; 12 gal., 60c; gal., 
$1.00; pk., $1.85.

MUNG BEANS 
GREEN SEEDED @ 
Mung Beans grow in upright bush form, 2 
to 4 feet high according to soil and climatic 
conditions. They have very heavy foliage, fine 
leaves and finer stems than any soy beans; 
a very important feature of Mung Beans is 
that the foliage is perfectly green and still 
growing when the seed is ripe and ready to 
be threshed. The hay cures quickly and may 
be threshed in 2 or 4 days after cutting, and 
it retains all the leaves. Threshed Mung Bean 
hay, properly cured, is equal to alfalfa hay 
and is readily eaten by all kinds of live 
stock. This makes it possible to make from 5 
to 20 bushels seed per acre for a money crop, 
besides obtaining at same time yield of 1 to 2 
tons of very best quality hay high in protein. 
Matures in 80 to 90 days; harvest when ma- 
jority of pods turn black. Best results with a 
mower and windrow attachment, or follow 
mower with side delivery rake. 
Mung Beans are a great soil builder, when 
properly inoculated. Use Nitragin. Sow 10. 
pounds seed per acre in 36-inch rows—culti- 
vate until rows grow together too close to 
permit it. Postpaid, pt., 35c; qt., 60c; 2 gal. 
$1.00; gal., $1.75.
