COWPE 


AS 
COWPEAS 
A highly nutritious forage crop that 
makes excellent feed for horses and cattle, 
as well as cheap enrichment for the soil. 
For the latter purpose, cut the vines and 
use them as hay; then plant whatever crop 
is to follow in the stubble and roots. 
Since Cowpeas have a tendency to loosen 
the soil, seed can usually be harrowed in, 
making plowing unnecessary. Sow 60 to 
90 lbs. per acre between May 20 and July 
15. Be sure to inoculate the seed with 
Nitragin before planting. 
Mixed Cowpeas. A mixture of good 
varieties is usually more satisfactory, 
especially for soil improvement, for the 
combination is better able to withstand 
extremes of weather. Bus. $3.25; 
10 bus. lots, $3.20 per bus.
