factor in raising the peas and beans.
when soWn in cold, wet soil, COW
pea seed will either rot or give a
poor stand of unhealthy plants"
The reader Of my article week be-
fore last will remember what was
said to similar effect concerning the
velvet bean.
Although less valuable for grazing
and fertilizing than the velvet bean,
the cowpea is better for hay and is
especially utilizable as fill-in or
catch crop. A writer in The Coun-
try Gentleman says: 1.-The coWpea
is perhaps the most valuable follow
up crop now known to the South.
The facts that this crop may be
planted at practically all times OF
the year, that it will stand a great
deal Of rough treatment and will not
only grow but produce a good crop
on the poorest land, have made it g
general favorite everywhere. The
coWpea is especially desirable after
small grain crops, as it can be plant,
ed after such crops are taken off,
furnishing a considerable amount OF
feed and adding fertility to the soil.
The use of the coWpea in the tri-
ennial rotation is principally because
of it's ability to produce a crop after
oats and thus aid in keeping up the
fertility. Cowpeas may be planted
for seed as late as July 18th, and if
planted in rows and cultivated a
yield Of from ten to twenty bushels
Of seed and from half a ton to a
ton Of hay to the acre may be Sc
cured. The land should be thorough
ly prepared and the crop given sew
eral civilizations for best results.
The seed should be planted in rows
about three feet apart and three or
four inches apart in the drill. When
planted in this way a bushel of seed
will plant between three and four
acres"
Any one at all familiar with prin-

ciples of good farming knows that
crop rotation is now regarded as an
essential one of those principles. 1t
serves to keep the ground occupied
with a crop all the time and also
permits the growth of legumes TO
keep up or increase the fertility OF
the soils. Drainage plays an I'M
portant part in maintaining sue
cessful rotation system, for drain.
age keeps the soil in workable con-
ltion, so that crops may be prompt
ly harvested and other crops imme-
diately sown. The cowpea fits ex-
ceptionally we'll in rotation. "Ro-
tation of crops is one Of the most
important methods employed for
maintaining or increasing yields OF
subsequent crops. The need for sys-
tematic rotations quite apparent on
most types of soil in the coWpea
region. It is a general rule that
some leguminous crop, such as COW
peas, soy beans, alfalfa, Or some OF
the clovers, should be included in
all systems of rotation. The place
OF the cowpea II the rotation will
depend largely on whether the crop
is to be plowed under as green
manure or to be harvested for grain
or hay. in one case it is sown as
catch crop after small grains and in
the other in the spring as a regular
crop. The coWpea succeeds under
so many different conditions that it
is especially valuable as catch crop
and for hay or seed production in a.
most any system OF rotation" A
summer sowing is of course likely to
be affected by drought, but the COW
pea is one of the plants that will
stand considerable drought. 'But
under very dry conditions will pro-
duce only a moderate quantity of hay
and a very small number OF seeds,
if any" However, drainage largely
overcomes the effects OF drought be-
cause drainage cOnserves the soil
moisture and is most important
aid in getting the soil into cond-
ton to absorb and hold a larger
quantity of water during the rainy
season without injury to the crop,
so that when drought comes the soil
is moist. 1t can be readily seen how
great an advantage drainage would
be in making the late coWpea crop
very valuable, and also what a corr
siderable addition to farm profits
would accrue therefrom in view OF
the exceptional value of the cowpea
crop. The following is brief sum-
mary of the fact in point:
"Well-cured cowpea hay is fully
as valuable a feed, pound for pound,
as red-clover hay, and its value
nearly equals that of alfalfa hay or
wheat bran" Anyone who buys al
falfa hay or bran realizes the sig
nificance (at present market quota
lions around $31 per toni. A pref
ty valuable "catch" crop, is it not?
A single crop Of cowpeas assured
and increased by drainage will pay
the cost Of drainage.
although the cowpea can be sat
isfactorily grown alone, it is more
advantageously grown for hay i'll
combination with other crops. When
grown in this manner, not only is a
greater variety and larger yield OF
feed obtained, but the mixed hay is
much more easily cured and hand
ed. The crop most widely used
with cowpeas for hay is sorghum
both sweet sorghums and kafirs, al
though other crops, such as Sudan
grass, johnson grass, soy beans and

millet, are used" "Cowpeas and
soy beans afford very satisfactory
| combination, either for hay or pas
ture, and the yield is nearly always
| greater than that of either crop
| alone"
Indication has been given above
| Of the ability Of the coWpea to grow
on thin or poor soil and to increase
it's fertility. Unlike many crops cow
peas may to advantage be grown
successfully several years on the
same SOIL Missouri authority
says: son very thin soils they tend
to grow stalk and to produce little
vine, although naturally the differ
ent varieties vary greatly in this re-
spect. On soil that is very poor the
first years growth of coWpeas is fro
quently rather insignificant, as they
sometimes do not exceed ten inches
in height and the yield is small.
The second years growth, however,
makes a very great increase in size
and thrift, while the continued pro-
duction Of them for three or four
seasons on such land will bring sur
prising returns" In view Of the
fact that in contrast with Northern
States like Missouri we can grow
crops every month In the year, the
cowpea is of much greater value to
us; so if Missouri can afford to, build
up soils in the way just described,
how much greater is the profit to US
to adopt the system of persistent
planting these legumes until they
have made our Ioor soils rich and
fertile. find it generally incom-
prehensible to the Southern farmer
that he possesses such marked nat
ural advantages in competition with
the Northern farmer. AS matter
Of fact we are generally neglecting
crops which we grow much more
easily and proitably when we grow
them (such as cowpeas and soy beans
the the velvet bean, the best of all
for gra ing and fartilizing, the North
cannot grow at ALL, and although
we are much more in need of soil
improving methods nevertheless the
Northern farmer is usually growing
such of these legumes as he can grow
more probably. Our fault and neg
lect is all in method and enterprise.
We are not really handicapped by
poor soils.
There is really a greater oppor-
tunity for the young farmer in
the South than there is in the North.
That is, given the same education
and knowledge Of farming, it is
easier and more profitable to farm
in the South than in the North. The
South should in many lines Of agri-
culture supplant the North. It can
grow legumes (the main soil i'm
provers) and other forage crops
more cheaply and more probably
than they can be grown in the North.
Consequently the South can raise
livestock more cheaply and more
probably than any other section of
the United States. Why then should
the South lag behind? To 60 ahead,
over the top, requires only an i'm
provement of farming methods. The
first step is drainage. Drainag e with
q rotation of crops, in which the
legumes are always included, and the
application of lime as needed and
some acid phosphate, constitute the
essential factors of successful farm
ing.
