The shrewd farmer is finding more
than one way in which to meet the
crying need for more help. One OF
the most profitable methods is to grow
cowpeas and let the hogs do their own
waiting on table.
Cowpeas may be seeded in the corn
at the last cultivation or they may be
put in the row when the corn is plant
ed.
To be sure Of stand it is best to
lay by the corn a few days earlier
than usual. They may be broadcasted
and plowed in. but this method is not
so sure Of securing stand as Is the
method Of drilling them.
Where planted In the row the best
plan is to use special cowpea plant

market In this case six quarts OF

The difficulty in putting peas In the
row, writes an expert in the Farm and
Home, is that corn is usually planted
about two weeks before 1t Is entirely
safe to SOW peas. This plan Is very
commonly practiced. however. Peas
planted in this way win make more
seed than where they are sown at the
last cultivation and are especially val
liable for hog pasture.
Many men find 1t very profitable to
hog down both corn and peas. The
New Era or Whippoorwill varieties
may be used where they are to be
hogged down. or a vining variety
which will twine about the stalks may
be used and both corn and peas cut
with corn binder.
