COWPEAS-—Mung and Velvet Beans 
THE WHIPPOORWILL. (90 days.) Also known 
as speckled. The seeds are buff, brown or 
grey depending on type, and are speckled; 
they are spoken of as bush peas, but will 
make vines when planted on rich land; on 
poor soil they produce few vines and many 
peas. The plants grow upright, two to five 
feet tall—half bushy or semi-erect. The 
Whippoorwill is the most popular general 
purpose stock pea for either seed or hay. 
For Hay and Soil Improvement! 
CLAY. (110 days.) The seeds are buff colored, 
medium size, the plant is large, vigorous 
growing and of vining or running habit, 
pods are large and yellowish. The Clay 
pea is used mostly for soil improving or 
green manuring. 
RED RIPPER. (110 days.) Seeds are red, it is 
a vigorous growing vining pea. Like the 
Clay or Black, makes fine yield of long 
vines. Shy seeder, very popular where 
known. Planted mostly for soil improving 
and in mixtures for hay. 
NEW ERA. (80 days.) The seeds have a blue 
cast with many black specks—an early ma- 
turing upright growing variety, very prolific 
producer of peas, small vines cure quickly, 
splendid for hay. Seeds are smaller than 
Whippoorwill and it does not require as 
many to plant an acre. 
BLACK. (120 days.) Seeds jet black, viny or 
running, making a fine growth of vines and 
leaves—shy seeder, splendid land improver; 
most valuable as a forage crop; used also 
as a general purpose pea. If broadcast for 
hay mix some upright-growing pea with 
them to hold vines off the ground for cut- 
coe There is also a bush variety Black 
ea.

MUNG BEANS 
Green Seeded 
There has developed an enormous de- 
mand for Mung Beans for commercial 
sprouting and canning. Heretofore the sup- 
ply came from China and other Asiatic 
countries. The bean sprouts are used par- 
ticularly by Chinese restaurants for mak- 
ing chop suey and other Chinese dishes. 
It is a legume used to some extent as a 
forage, pasture and soil building crop. 
Grows well on any type of soil, but best 
suited to warm sandy loams. They are 
very hardy and disease resistant The seed 
are small and it takes 5 to 8 pounds to 
drill an acre in 3-foot rows. Broadcast, 25 
to 35 pounds an acre. Beans mature in 90 
to 100 days, depending on the season.

VELVET BEANS 
90-Day or Early Speckled 
It is very prolific and can be planted 
later than other sorts on account of its 
early maturity. Velvet Beans make a 
greater growth of vines and beans than 
any other known forage plant in the same 
length of time, therefore, one of the best 
soil building legumes. Excellent for graz- 
ing off green and cattle will fatten on them 
even after frost has killed vines.
