Alfalfa 
Although fall sowing is preferable, good re- 
sults can be obtained from early spring sow- 
ing. Get it thoroughly established by first pre- 
paring your land, applying plenty of lime, 
and before seeding you should inoculate the 
seed. If your land has never had Alfalfa grow- 
ing on it before, be sure to inoculate the 
seed with nitrogen-gathering bacteria for 
Alfalfa, for without inoculation your success 
is exceedingly doubtful. Do not sow on wet 
ground, high and rather dry being preferable, 
and only cut when coming into bloom. Pound

winter. Just the thing to build up run-down 
soil and improve the yield of crops that would 
be planted on the land the following spring.

SWEET CLOVER—(Melilotus Alba.) Scarified 
seed. A rapid growing Clover with white 
bloom that is excellent for bee food. An ex-

Cow Peas 
Cow Peas make one of the largest yielding 
and most nutritious forage crops grown. Not 
necessary to turn under the crop of vines to 
improve the soil, and it is really considered 
more economical and the best way to cut off 
the vines and cure them as a forage or hay 
crop, and then turn under the stubble and 
roots. From 10,000 to 18,000 pounds of green 
fodder per acre have been produced. Cow 
Peas can be sown broadcast in April, May, 
June or July, at the rate of 1 to 1% bushels 
per acre, or they may be planted in drills, 
using from 8 to 12 pounds per acre. 
WHIPPOORWILL—Valued in the South for 
fodder and reclaiming old and worn out land, 
as it is a leguminous plant of special merit 
as a fertilizer. Two crops can be easily made 
in one season. When ripened the ground peas 
make the best cattle fattener. Pound 25c; 
5 pounds 80c, postpaid. 
LARGE BLACK-EYED—Make a profitable crop 
for picking up the dry peas for sale in our 
market during the winter; an excellent soil 
improver, being similar in growth of vine and 
action of roots upon the soil to the other cow 
peas. Pound 35c; 5 pounds $1.25, postpaid. 
CREAM—Gives the best satisfaction of any 
variety we have ever offered for table use. 
None that can surpass it in splendid flavor. 
Pound 40c; 5 pounds $1.75, postpaid. 
BRABHAM COW PEA—(Sow 40 pounds per 
acre.) Similar to Whippoorwill. Resistant to 
nematode. Few districts are free from nema- 
tode and while other crops nurse it thus 
spreading it over wider territory, the Brabham 
will discourage its development and if repeat- 
edly planted may eradicate it from the field 
in which the Brabham is planted. Pound 25c; 
5 pounds 85c. 
BROWN CROWDER—Fine large variety of Peas 
and is popular as a table Pea throughout 
Texas and the Southwest. Pound 25c; 5 pounds

Oats from first-class, reliable farmers 
from whom we have been buying for a 
number of years, and we pay them a prem- 
ium because we know what we are buying. 
Soy or Soja Beans 
Plant at the same time you would 
plant corn. Prepare the ground as you 
would for cowpeas, sowing the seed 
in drills 3 to 4 feet apart, dropping 
two seeds every 6 inches—or sow 
broadcast. Do not plant the seed over 
1% inches deep. Cut for hay when the 
pods are well formed, or, if wanted for 
seed, let the Beans mature. Inoculate 
the seed with Nitrogen. 
LAREDO—The plant’s many slender, 
leafy branches make it unexcelled as 
a high-quality hay. Matures in about 
120 days and yields 30 to 40 bushels 
of seed per acre. Seed is small, black 
and flat. One bushel will plant 6 to 8 
acres in 315-foot rows. Pound 25c; 
5 pounds $1.00, postpaid. 
Atlas Sorgo 
Looks a great deal like hegari, differ- 
ent in many respects but grown prin- 
cipally for ensilage and will make two 
to three times the tonnage of red top 
or other ensilage crops. It grows eight 
to ten feet in height, with heavy 
foliage, and while the seed may be 
harvested, best results are obtained 
when the crop is used for ensilage and 
cut green. Experience has shown it 
does weil and makes heavy tonnage 
even under droughty conditions. The 
stalk is sweet like cane, and the seed 
have the feeding value of hegari and 
maize. Pound 25c; 5 pounds 85c, 
postpaid. 
Yellow Milo, Disease- 
Resistant, Dwarf

the heads are large and full, uniform 
in growth. Pound 20c; 5 pounds 75c, 
postpaid. 
Sudan 
Best pasture grazing crop and most 
‘ palatable. Sudan can be planted as 
late as July under favorable conditions 
To avoid getting Johnson Grass and 
weed mixtures, plant only certified 
seed. The average yield of seed is 450 
pounds per acre. Three cuttings of hay 
can be expected under normal condi- 
tions. Pound 35c; 5 pounds $1.50, 
postpaid.
