Car Load of Field Peas for Crook County Having found that there are a large number of farmers expecting to plant field peas in this section next season the County Agricul turist, A. S. Lovett, is sending the following letter to farmers he has met during the summer. Any one receiving the letter from him may fill out the blank below, and their name will be added to the list. A mistake was made in the article published last week as to the amount of seed to be planted per acre. Dear Sir: There are a large number of farmers in the county who expect to plant field peas next season. Those who buy seed can save money if they club together. If you buy by the 100 pounds, they will cost you at least fa. 75. If you will club with the other farmers of the county in buying and can order by the ton or the carload, they will cost only about 3 cents per pound. I am trying to help the farmers to save money. If you expect to plant field peas in the spring will you order with the others? If so, please fill in space below and return to me. On dry land plant 75 pounds per acre; on irrigated land, 100 to 120 pounds. Where summer fallow has been plowed in the fall, peas may be grown on summer fallow, A. E.
