COWPEAS (Continued) 
Early Wilt-Resistant Ramshorn Blackeyes. (68 days.) 
Extremely prolific. It makes a tremendous number of long 
pods on an upright vine. It is uniform in size, growth and 
maturity. They have a very delicious flavor.

Giant Wilt-Resistant Ramshorn Blackeyes. (75 days.) 
A vigorous heavy yielding pea. About 10 days later than the 
Early Wilt-Resistant Ramshorn Blackeyes. The peas are much 
larger than the regular Blackeyes and can be used for both 
green and dried peas.

CHICKEN CORN (Shallu or Egyptian Wheat) 
Sow 8 to 10 pounds per acre. 
This is a sorghum with extra large, loose, bushy heads, cov- 
ered thickly with small grains. If left standing, the grains drop 
off in a scattering manner, and the chickens gather them. If 
grown on a large scale, the large, well filled heads can be cut 
at maturity and fed to the poultry as desired. It is best to sow 
the seed thinly in three to four foot rows, leaving two to three 
plants to every three feet of row. If planted in small batches 
it is best to plant near the chicken houses so chickens can feed 
on the seeds as they fall. Chicken Corn, with ease of growth, 
resistance to most foliage diseases, a sure cropper and heavy 
yielder, will go a long way towards solving the poultry feed 
problem. The cheapest and best chicken feed you can grow. 
Plant from March to August. It is used successfully in some 
sections as a green manure crop. It is not a legume. For a 
green manure crop plant 25 to 30 lbs. per acre.

Crotalaria Spectabilis 
Valuable for Adding Organic Matter and Nitrogen to the Soil 
CROTALARIA 
Sow 10 to 20 pounds per acre. 
Crotalaria is particularly desirable as a cover-crop for groves, 
truck and farm-lands, and does well on all kinds of soil except 
muck. It is a legume, thus adding a large amount of nitrogen 
to the soil. It is especially valuable because it is immune to 
nematodes causing root knot disease. It makes a very profuse 
growth, furnishing an abundance of green material for humus. 
Crotalaria should be sown broadcast from March to June, 
on well-prepared land, at the rate of 10 to 20 pounds of Spec- 
tabilis seed per acre, depending on how thick the coverage is 
desired, and harrowed lightly. 
It is desirable to inoculate Crotalaria seed with Nitragin 
before planting. By so doing you will not only have the assur-

ance of a surer stand, but a better crop, and the succeeding 
crop will have the benefit of a larger amount of nitrogen stored 
in the Crotalaria roots. (See page 49.) 
Crotalaria Spectabilis. This vigorous growing, long-leaved 
variety is not as fibrous as others, the growth is much heay- 
ier, and the stems are hollow. As a result, it can be plowed 
under easier and it rots much quicker. The seed matures early 
and uniformly, making it a sure and heavy seeder. Spectabilis 
does well on high ground, but is best adapted to the better 
grades of sandy soils. Leaves, stems and seed of this Crotalaria 
plant, green or dry, are poisonous to poultry and livestock.

HEGARI (Hy-gear)—See Sorghum, page 46 
Hairy Indigo (Indigofera Hirsuta). 
Sow three to five pounds per acre in 30 inch drills, cr 
sow 6 to 10 lbs. per acre broadcast 
A three purpose legume, used as a summer cover crop, for 
hay and for grazing. It will grow on and improve poor soil. It 
makes an ideal cover crop for citrus groves, harboring no 
troublesome insects, and it reseeds itself year after year. It 
has a deep tap root, making it very resistant to drought. The 
plants grow four to seven feet in height, and produce an 
abundance of hay and grazing. If grazed or harvested for hay 
before the stems become woody a second or third growth may 
be expected. 
Seed may be planted not over an inch deep, from the middle 
of March to the latter part of May, but early seedings are 
preferable. Heavier seedings are desired for green manure or 
forage, lighter seeding for seed. On poor soil 300 to 500 lbs. 
per acre before seeding of a 0-10-10 or 0-14-10 fertilizer mixture 
is desirable. On extremely acid soils apply 1000 lbs. of lime 
per acre. It will grow on a wide range of soils, but sandy loam 
soils are best. It is sensitive to cold, and is killed by the first 
hard frost. It is best suited to the section of Florida from 
Gainesville south. It is highly resisitant to root knot, and in 
general it is reasonably free from disease and insect injury, 
and is resistant to pumpkin bugs.

LUPINES 
Sow 50 to 60 lbs. per acre broadcast, or preferably in 
drills with a grain drill. 
Lupines are adapted to north and central Florida where they 
are rapidly growing in popularity. Lupines are not affected 
by cold and make an ideal winter cover crop. Plant from late 
September to December, preferably in late September or 
October, in well prepared soil, using between 250 and 300 lbs. 
of Superphospate per acre. Be sure to inoculate seed before 
planting. (See page 49.) 
Bitter Blue Lupine. This variety makes an ideal winter 
legume cover crop, and has rapidly grown in popularity as a 
soil builder, especially in large peanut growing areas since 
peanuts deplete soil fertility rapidly. Normal growth is about 
waist high and normal weight of green matter 20-30 tons per 
acre. It produces about three times as much growth as its 
foremost competitors such as Winter. Peas, Hairy Vetch, etc. 
It protects the soil from erosion and restores humus and plant 
food removed by peanuts and other crops. Peanut and corn 
yields following Bitter Blue Lupine have been greatly increased.

Sweet Blue Lupine (new). This new variety is the pasture 
and feed counterpart of Bitter Blue Lupine. Both the plant 
and leaf are definitely sweet to the taste and are relished by and 
palatable to all kinds of livestock. As a result it may replace 
Bitter Blue Lupine within the next few years. Makes about the 
same growth and tonnage as Bitter Blue Lupine. Stock can 
be turned in on Sweet Blue Lupine as soon as it is about a foot 
high.
