a and HEADY SALE 
HOW...WHEN...WHERE...TO PLANT 
Soy beans may be planted either broadcast or in drills. Usually a better crop is had when 
planted in drills and cultivated, and few crops leave the land cleaner and in better condition 
for the following crop. They grow equally well on light and heavy soils, but on heavy soils 
they should not be planted more than 1 to 14% inches deep except in dry seasons. On light 
sandy soils plant deeper, but not more than 3 inches deep. When sown broadcast sow 1 to

SOY BEAN 
RALSOY 
The Ralsoy is a pure line developed from 
the Arksoy and has several advantages: (1) 
erect stalk with fruit borne in clusters near the 
main stem; (2) high degree of uniformity in 
growth and maturity; (3) definitely higher in 
yield and percentage of oil than the Arksoy. 
The maturity is about the same and it seems to 
have the same ability as the Arksoy to mature 
a crop before frost even if planted quite late. 
A yellow variety. Postpaid, qt., 35¢; 2 gal., 
60c; gal., $1.00; pk., $1.85. 
; AVOYELLES 
Developed in Louisiana and found to be 
very resistant to cutworms, or destructive pests 
on other varieties there. Seeds are black, 
larger than Otootan. Makes a splendid hay 
variety, earlier than Otootan; a prolific bean 
yielder and splendid soil builder. Postpaid, qt., 
35¢; VY gal., 60c; gal., $1.00; pk., $1.85. 
BROWN BILOXI 
An upright variety growing 4 to 5 feet high, 
covered with a dense mass of foliage that does 
not shed easily. A heavy yielder of beans; 
the oil and protein contents are high; a fine 
bean for hogging down, for planting with corn 
or sorghum and for oil. The beans do not 
shatter, will stay in the pods until February. 
Late in maturing, requiring a long season to 
mature, but makes an unusually luxuriant 
growth. Postpaid, qt., 35c; 1% gal., 60c; gal., 
$1.00; pk., $1.85.

BANSEI. (90 days.) Plants erect and of 
medium height, very prolific, well adapted

1¥% bushels to the acre; in drills about a peck to the acre. Plant in April, May or June. 
MACOUPIN 
This yellow variety seems to be, for the 
South, the earliest soy bean of all, and that 
makes it the most practicable variety for 
crushing for oil—it is ready to harvest before 
bad weather sets in around September Ist. A 
heavy yielder of beans, and a good soil 
builder. A farmer should have some Macoupins 
and a later variety like Arksoys so he can 
handle both to advantage with his combine. 
betes oe qt., 30c; 2 gal., 50c; gal., 90c; pk., 
OGDEN 
Developed by Prof. H. H. Ogden at the Uni- 
versity of Tennessee. A yellow variety of high 
oil content, very prolific yielder of beans, 
which makes it a No. bean for oil mill 
crushing. Drought resistance and soil building 
qualities add to its popularity. Matures seed 
about October Ist to 15th. Postpaid, qt., 35; 1% 
gal., 60c; gal., $1.00.; pk., $1.85. 
ARKSOY 2913 
A yellow variety that matures about three 
weeks later than Macoupin, however is two 
weeks earlier than other yellow varieties used 
in Memphis territory. High in oil content. A 
selection of regular Arksoy. Postpaid, qt., 30c; 
l% gal., 50c; gal., 90c; pk., $1.65. 
VOLSTATE 
A high yielding yellow soybean. This is a 
later development by Prof. H. H. Ogden of the 
University of Tennessee. A little later in ma- 
turity than Ogden, but a week earlier than 
Tokio. Non-shattering qualities and excellent 
for forage. Postpaid, qt., 40c; 1% gal., 70c; gal., 
$1.20; pk., $2.25. 
VIRGINIA 
As it is about 20 days earlier than the 
Laredo, it can be grown farther north and 
throughout the corn belt. The vines make a 
fine growth, are filled with pods, stand about 
3 feet, are easy to cut and easy to cure. The 
stems being fine and the leafage profuse 
adapts it particularily well for hay making. 
Postpaid, qt., 30c; 12 gal., 50c; gal., 90c; pk., 
$1.65.

Soy Beans Make Poor Land Good and Good Land Better 
TANNER 
Seedsmen formerly called this ‘‘Red Tanner”’ 
but U. S. Department of Agriculture says it's 
Tanner only. It is a red seeded variety, seed 
about same size as Virginia or little smaller. 
A fine stemmed leafy variety that is finding 
favor all over the South as a hay variety. Post- 
paid, qt., 35c; 12 gal., 60c; gal., $1.00; pk., $1.85. 
OTOOTAN 
Few Soy Beans can equal Otootan as a hay 
maker. Its late maturity is more than over- 
come by the abundant growth—S5 feet or more 
in long growing seasons—its fine stems and 
abundant foliage, and the fine texture of its 
hay. It differs from most varieties in having 
many leafy branches instead of a coarse cen- 
tral stem. Postpaid, qt., 45c; 2 gal., 80c; gal., 
$1.40; pk., $2.65. 
MAMLOXI 
(MAMMOTH BILOXI HYBRID) 
Developed at Stoneville, Miss., Experiment 
Station. Is erect in growth, upright, very pro- 
lific yielder of beans, and very fine for com- 
bination with corn, and soil building. Good for 
hay if planted thick. Matures about with Mam- 
moth Yellows but shatters very little. Seed yel- 
low with some brown markings. Postpaid, qt., 
30c; 4 gal., 50c; gal., 90c; pk., $1.65. 
LAREDO 
One bushel will plant 6 to 8 acres in rows 
3 to 31% feet apart, depending upon how 
thick you want them. We know of one farmer 
‘ who got a perfect stand using one bushel to 
12 acres. They should not be covered deeper 
than 1% inches; a half-inch is better. One or: 
two cultivations to keep down the grass and 
weeds is advisable. One of the best hay va- 
rieties. Postpaid, qt., 40c; 1 gal., 70c; gal., 
$1.20; pk., $2.25. 
INOCULATE THE SEED BY ALL MEANS 
Field tests have shown that better crops 
are harvested when Legume seeds are inoc- 
ulated even when planted on fields where 
inoculated seeds of the same Legume crops 
had grown the previous year. Use NITRA- 
GIN—the oldest and most widely used inoc- 
ulator in America. Small size (inoculates up 
to 120 lbs. of seed). Each, 35c, postpaid.
