Tender Garden Peas 
There’s nothing like Peas fresh from the Garden 
Smooth seeded peas can be sown as early in the spring as the ground can be pre- 
pared. Subsequent frost does not hurt them. Sow in single or double row, 24 to 36 
inches apart, covering the seeds about 2 inches deep. All wrinkled varieties are 
sown in the same manner, but the gardener must wait until danger from severe 
frost is passed. All varieties over 2 feet do better with support. 1 Pkt. for 20 
ft.; one pound for 100 feet of drill.
