GARDEN PEAS '» 



W 



Laxtoman Peas. 



There are two classes of Peas, the smooth- 

 seeded kinds, which are very hardy and may 

 be planted as early in the Spring as the 

 ground can be prepared, and the wrinkled 

 Peas, which are less hardy but much better 

 in quality. Wrinkled Peas should not be 

 sown much before mid-April. 



Sow in drills about 3 feet apart and 3 

 inches deep. Tall-growing kinds may be 

 grown in double rows, allowing 6 inches of 

 space between in which to place brush or 

 trellis to support the vines. All Peas do 

 best on a fairly heavy soil which holds 

 plenty of moisture, although the dwarf 

 kinds will give good results on a light soil, 

 providing it is moderately rich. 



By planting one or two varieties of 

 smooth-seeded Peas as early as possible and 

 then a selection of wrinkled sorts that will 

 mature in succession, a constant supply of 

 tender green Peas may be had. Varieties 

 are listed in the order in which they mature. 

 One Quart of Peas will sow 100 feet of row. 



If wanted by parcel post, add 8c per pt.; 

 lOo per qt.
