A Good Peavine.

The whippoorwill peas will need no cultivation, except twice before they come up and the yield of both peas and forage will greatly exceed in protein, a crop of bunch soja beans, the stems of which are woody, like that of the white bean and not much richer in feeding values, while the stalks of tlfe whippoorwill peas are both larger, taller and richer in protein than those of the bunch soja beans and are as digestible as those of medium red clover and much more digestible ahjl much richer In. protein than forage from mammoth clover. As a rejuvenator of wornout soils, nothing equals the whippoorwill cow pea.
