Wilson Soy Bean 
Soy Beans 
The Soy Bean is a crop of interest to all classes of 
farmers, and is bound to establish itself as one of the 
most valuable additions to American agriculture. No 
crop has gained popularity 
as rapidly as Soy Beans. 
On land too poor to grow 
clovers, Soy Beans and cow- 
peas can be made to produce 
great quantities of feed and 
will increase the fertility 
while doing it. They should 
not be planted until the ground is warm—about 10 
days after corn-planting would be safe. Soil should be 
well prepared, just the same as you would for corn. 
Cover seed about 114 inches deep. Can be sown broad- 
cast or drilled in. Sow 114 bushels per acre for soil- 
improvement; 2 bushels per acre for hay or pasturage. 
WILSON. The most popular variety in cultivation. 
This early sort will mature seed in Pennsylvania, 
Ohio, and New Jersey. On account of the abundant 
growth of slender stems and branches, Wilson’s 
makes the best sort to grow for hay. Excellent to 
grow for seed and ensilage. Will do well on poor soils 
and produce a large crop of Beans, but we would 
recommend good soil for hay, forage, soiling, silage, 
or green manure. See Price-List. 
MANCHU. This Bean has been very popular in 
Pennsylvania and Ohio. It is a general all-purpose 
Bean and has few rivals. Can be used for hay and 
is a good variety for hogging down. Does not shell 
out easily. A good yielder for seed purposes. Grows 
tall, erect, and bushy. Matures Beans in about 110 
days in a normal season. See Price-List. 
Buckwheat 
Buckwheat can be planted from June 1 to middle of 
July, and is used much by farmers having vacant land 
upon which they were unable to get planted an earlier 
crop, or upon lJand where another crop has failed. 
Buckwheat does well on poor soil and makes one of 
the best fertilizer crops to turn under. A small patch 
planted near the poultry-yard can be harvested by the 
chickens. Sow 1 bushel per acre. 
JAPANESE. This is the standard and most popular 
variety of Buckwheat, and ripens a week earlier than 
the Silver Hull. It is the most productive and prolific 
variety in cultivation and resists drought and blight 
well. See Price-List.

Dwarf Essex Rape 
A valuable forage plant. One acre will pasture more 
hogs, sheep, and cattle than 4 acres of clover or other 
grasses. As a healthful, fattening pasture-food it has no 
equal. It is an annual, producing large leaves, and can 
be sown any time from early spring until September. 
Ready for pasture 6 to 8 weeks after sowing. It stands 
out without a rival for cheapness and effectiveness. 
Sow 6 to 8 pounds per acre, broadcast. See Price-List,

Sudan Grass 
A tall grass which grows from 4 to 7 feet high. The 
stems are small and leafy. It is like the sorghum or 
millets, and must be started each spring. Easily cured 
for hay, and stock will eat it readily. May be cut from 
two to four times in one year. The crop should be cut 
for hay as soon as the grass is full headed, and early 
cutting Is advised when the crop is to be used for hay. 
See Price-List. 
Canada Field Peas 
The demand for Canada Field Peas increases every 
year. They are used both as a green feed and as a fertil- 
izer, and the amount of feed produced per acre is very 
large. Valuable both for hay or soiling. Readily eaten 
by all kinds of stock, and is as nourishing as can be 
desired. It ranks very high as a fertilizer, etther when 
plowed under or pastured off. We would advise every 
farmer to use Field Peas more liberally than many of 
them have been doing in the past, knowing that they 
will be pleased with the results. Canada Field Peas 
are mostly sown with oats. When growing they furnish 
the nitrogen so much needed by all soils. As a forage 
for dairy cows and hogs, they stand in the front ranks, 
There is no crop that we can so heartily recommend. 
They are perfectly hardy and will do on any soil adapted 
to oats or wheat. Canada Field Peas are most profitable 
when sown with oats. The oats will support the vines, 
and Jessen trouble to harvest. Sow 1144 bushels of 
Peas per acre, and about the same amount of Oats. 
Peas should be drilled first about 314 inches deep and 
the oats sown 2 inches deep. See Price-List. 
It will pay you to inoculate your Peas with Legume- 
Aid. Great quantities of Legume-Aid are used each 
season to inoculate the seed for Canada Field Peas.

Sandy or Hairy Vetch 
Also known as Winter Vetch. A rapid-growing 
winter annual that thrives on little moisture and can 
be sown spring or fall. Stays green all winter, furnishing 
an abundance of pasture until early spring to late in 
fall. A tremendous yielder, producing 15 to 20 tons 
of green forage per acre. As a fertilizer it has few equals, 
as It grows on poor soils exceedingly well, and a crop 
of Vetch plowed under is claimed to be equal to $20 
to $40 worth of commercial fertilizer. Sow about 
40 pounds of Vetch and about 1% bushel of rye or 
Barley. The grain sown with Vetch will act as a sup- 
port for the vines. Vetch should be inoculated with 
Legume-Aid for best results. See Price-List.

Millets 
GOLDEN. Also known as German Millet. The best 
for hay or fodder. When cut in full bloom the quality 
is exceptionally good and all kinds of stock relish it. 
On good soil a yield as high as 5 tons per acre may 
be expected. Sow 35 pounds per acre. See Price-List. 
JAPANESE. Billion Dollar Grass. The best soil on 
which to grow this Millet is that which is in fair 
condition of fertility and inclined to be wet rather 
than dry. Japanese Millet is adapted to all seasons. 
It will grow 6 to 8 feet high. Excellent for silage and 
is fully equal to the best corn-fodder as a food for 
milch cows. The seed may be sown broadcast at 
the rate of 30 to 35 pounds per acre. This variety 
stools remarkably and should not be sown too thick,
