zu, FIELD SEEDS 
ALFALFA and CLOVERS 
STAFFEL’S ALFALFA does best through fall sow- 
ing but good results can be obtained with early 
spring planting. Care should be taken in prepar- 
ing the land, applying plenty of lime. Inocu- 
late seed before planting with NITRAGIN, es- 
pecially if the land has had no previous alfalfa 
plantings. Dry and rather high ground is prefer- 
able for planting. Avoid sowing in wet soils. 
Plant 20 to 25 Ibs. per acre. 
STAFFEL’‘S BURR CLOVER. California hulled seed 
of exceptionally good quality, thoroughly re- 
cleaned. 
STAFFEL’S HUBAM CLOVER is a rapid growing 
annual Sweet Clover attaining a height of 7 feet. 
Flowers are rich in honey. An excellent cover 
crop when planted in February or March. Sow 12 
to 15 Ibs. per acre. 
STAFFEL’S YELLOW SWEET CLOVER (Melilotus 
Indica.) Sometimes called sour clover. Wonder- 
ful legume, especially adapted to plowing under 
for green manure. Grows all during winter when 
planted in fall. Builds up rundown soil and im- 
proves the yield of crops that will be planted on 
the land next spring. Plant 15 to 20 Ibs. per acre. 
STAFFEL’S CERTIFIED HEGARI 
ARIZONA GROWN. Produces large heads and 
matures earlier. Stands dry weather, the grain 
does not shatter and the crop is certain. Sow 8 to 
10 Ibs. per acre in drills. 
STAFFEL’S COW PEAS 
These peas make one of the largest yielding and 
most nutritious forage crops grown. It’s not neces- 
sary to turn under the crop of vines to improve 
the soil. It’s 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 un- 
der the stubble and roots. From 10,000 to 18,000 
pounds of green fodder per acre have been pro- 
duced. Can be sown broadcast in April, May, 
June or July at the rate of 1 to 114 bushels per 
acre or may be planted in drills, using 8 to 12 
Ibs. per acre. 
WHIPPOORWILL is ideal for fodder and for re- 
claiming old and wornout land. Two crops can 
easily be made in one season. Use ripened, ground 
peas for excellent cattle fattener. 
LARGE BLACK EYED PEAS are an ideal soil im- 
prover, being similar in growth of vine and action 
of roots upon the soil to other cowpeas. Make a 
profitable crop for picking the dry peas for sale 
in our market during the winter. 
CREAM PEAS are undisputed queens of the table. 
None can surpass them for splendid flavor. 
BRABHAM COW PEAS are similar to Whippoorwill. 
Resistant to nematode. Few districts are free from 
this blight and while other crops nurse it and 
spread it to other territories. Brabham will dis- 
ccurage its development cnd may eradicate it 
from fie!d entirely. Sow 40 Ibs. to the acre. 
BROWN CROWDER PEAS are a fine, large variety 
and are popular for table use throughout the 
south and Southwest.
