No plant is held in higher esteem on our farm than this great bean, as no plant has done more to provide us with stock food of the first quality or aided us more materially in the building up of our soil. The cowpea, with us, usually follows a winter grazing crop that has been sewn on corn stubble, but we are not averse to turning a good sod of clover and timothy, and oft£r do this, plowing the sod in the late winter. Then as soon as the corn crop is planted, we start to harrow ing the pea land. And the deeper the plowing is done and tfce better the seed bed it prepared, the better results we obtain in the pea crop. No crop we have tried will respond better to good treatment than will the pea crop. We usually prepare the land well with the disc, v cme, and spike-tooth harrows; sow the peas broadcast by hand and cultivate them in with the spring-tooth culti vator. Then level the land with the smoothing harrow. THE PEA AS A HAY CROP. On our best land we generally use three-fourths to one bushel per acre of good clean Clay peas and a peck of Amber cane seed- This makes the best combination for cow feed of any thing we have ever used. On the thinner fields, where we sow the peas for soil improvement primarily, we use the pea alone, broadcast, one bushel per acre. Then where we want the crop to be grazed by hogs we put the peas in rows two feet apart. We plant these with our two-row corn planter. is increased in the rext five years jusi so will the fertility of S«*uhern soils be built up and that when a crop of peas has been grown the farmer cannot afford to turn in un der and lose the feeding value of one of the finest of all hays. It is all too common an idea that because j the cowpea will grow on soil that is poorly prepared therefore good preparation is not needed. “No crop will respond better to good treatment,” and no crop will pay bettor for liberal fertilization. The one staple crop of the South which mil return the largest per cent on money invested in judicious fertiliza tion is the pea crop* On red clay soils, acid phosphate alone is gener ally needed; on lighter and sandy lands, both phosphate and potash should be used. Perhaps in this connection a few words as to the writer’s way of han dling the pea crop may be of inter est. » • i It was our general practice to sow! peas with a grain drill, three pecks to one bushel per acre. This made fertilization easy and insured a uni form stand. By using a disc drill with drag chains attached the land was left practically level for the mower—a very important point. Some use a roller or a smoothing harrow after the drill. Unlike Mr French, we preferred mixing a few of the earlier bush peas with the larger, late-maturing varieties, I rather than using sorghum or other ^ crops. These early plants were, of I F\ course, past the best hay stage, hut, W they helped some, we thought, in! S the handling of the crop. Our method of curing was much )nf like Mr French’s. We let the peas lie in the swath only until well wilt ed, than raked into windrows to cure until ready to put into cocks where Owing to a delay in eoniplet- ing our “Concrete Block” Building, which is being spec- - ia|ly constructed for our use, and the interior arranged in the most modern way to suit the requirements of an up-to- date Men’s and Boys’ Cloth ing and Furnishing Goods ' Store, our removal will be delayed until June 15th.
