vator may be used TO great advantage,
ii there is a sufficiency of rainsa good
crop may be made without much Gull
tivation. Even when the peas are
sown broadcast, especially if not sown
too thickly, it will be advisable to run
the weeder over them as it destroys
the young weeds and grass and gives
the peas a good start, but ordinari"
if only the hay is planted the grass
which grows in with the vines is dis
irable as it will make good hay and
also enable the vines to cure very cas-
lily.
Any crop can be planted after COW
peas advantageously, including oats,
corn, cotton, wheat or other crops
This season have the Fulghbum oats
after the cow-peas, sown broad cast m
corn at layin-by and they are yielding
80 to so bushels on upland without
any other fertilization, consequently
figure the manurial value to be easily
$40 to $15 per acre when the vines ar
grazed and stubble turned under,
and this alone makes a profitable
crop.

BEST METHOD With COWPEAS AFTER
THE GRAIN CROP IS HARVESTED

81. c, McAuliffe in Southern Farming
Cowpeas following oats with other
small winter grain constitute one OF
the most profitable crops of the cotton
belt For many years l made study
of this feature of farming, both from
the standpoint of profit accruing
from growing the crop for sale and foy
feed, and for the indirect value result
ing from soil renovation and improve
nlent. There are approximately $50
varieties of COW peas, but of these not
more than so can be classed as dis
1nctly individual OF these a score
may be selected as the most desirable
for various purposes, including seed
growing, hay, field crops and table use.

Crowder and Lady varieties are ali
good ones. Among the recent additions

that stand above all others, these be-
ing the Iron and Brabham Cowpeas,
both of which are exceptionally well
suited for growth in all soils in all
sections They make an abundance Of
seed and the finest kind of hay, the
vines and tendTils being of fine tex
ture and the foliage is retained until
after the peas are ripe enough to pick,
thus making the crop of seed and hay
should be cut when the peas begin to
ripen in order to prevent the foliage
from falling and the vines to become

The methods of planting vary, but
where one is equipped to do the WORK
the ground should first be broken and
the peas may be broadcast at the
rate of three sacks to one bushel per
per acre and then thoroughly harrow
ed in with cutaway harrow. However,
if time can be spared to cultivate
later on and especially if the seed is
wanted it will be advisable to plant in
drills 2 10 to feet apart and for
this method the ground should be

There's smell in the air as if mead

But she pours out her heart to the

Who meet after years.

Shame the gray town and it's squalor--
Windows are flaming with jonquils,
Fires of gold!

OF solemnly mischevious children
Going to bed.
And like challenge of trumpets.
