Leguminous and Sundry Farm Seeds; Sorghums and Millets 
Soybeans 
In Place of Manure 
Grow Soil-improving Plants; plow or 
dig them under 
The added organic material will retain 
plant-food and hold moisture. Do not allow 
even the smallest area to remain idle, but 
harrow or rake under General Garden Fertil- 
izer, 1 ton per acre or 50 pounds to each 1000 
square feet, and sow one or more of the under- 
noted crops, appropriate to the season. It is 
desirable to sow combinations of them; when 
mixed together the stated quantities may be 
reduced in proportion.

Varieties marked * are legumes, and are of 
additional value because of the nitrates which are 
added to the soil by colonies of bacteria in nodules 
on the roots of leguminous plants. Use these, and 
you need not buy nitrogenous fertilizers. Treat 
seeds marked * with Legume-Aid before sowing to 
insure a sufficiency of these bacteria. 
COWPEAS 
For improving soils by plowing under; also 
valuable as hay. Sow 2 bus. per acre.

SOY BEANS 
The Crop of Many Uses 
Mammoth Yellow and Wilson are slow- 
growing, tall and bushy sorts which do not 
mature Beans in northern latitudes, but are 
the best to use for green cattle and hog feed, 
for silage or excellent hay; also for plowing 
under for soil-improvement. 
For these purposes, sow 3 to 4 pecks per 
acre In close rows, or 6 to 8 pecks if drilled 
solid or broadcast. When grown with corn, 
allow 1 peck with 15 pounds of corn to the 
acre. 
Cayuga grows quickly enough to mature its 
Beans in the North. They are excellent for 
mixing with corn and other materials for high 
protein dairy and stock feed. From these 
Beans, the valuable Soy-bean oil is expressed; 
they also supply the foods, plastics, paints, 
varnishes and soaps with which we are becom- 
ing increasingly familiar. For the production 
of Beans, use 2 to 3 pecks per acre, drilled into 
20 to 30-inch rows. The culture of Soybeans 
makes the Iand more productive for a suc- 
ceeding crop.

ground-rot and smut. Non- -poisonous and 
does not retard germination. Large, for 
2 bushel seed corn, $1. Small, for 1 bushel, 
60 cts. 
New Improved Ceresan. Use it on wheat, 
oats, barley and sorghums before sowing. 
Controls bunt, smut and other fungi. An 
ounce treats 2 bushels seed, a pound treats 
32 bushels. 4 ozs. 35 cts., Ib. 90 cts., 4 Ibs.

Legume-Aid inoculates field peas, cowpeas, 
soy beans, vetches, clovers, alfalfa and 
lespedeza with nitrogen-fixing bacteria. 
These crops will yield better, and they will 
leave in the soil a heavy deposit of nitrogen 
which benefits all succeeding crops in the 
rotation. Plants produced from inoculated 
seed will have more nodules on their roots. 
Bushel size 50 cts:, 214-bus. size $1, 100- 
Ib. size 50 cts. Garden pkt. (treats up to 5 
Ibs. of garden peas, sweet peas, lima beans
