SWEET PEAS 



CULTURE 



Sweet Peas should be sown in drills as early as possible 

 in spring- in ricii, friable soil. Prepare tlie bed tliorouglily, 

 working in a quantity of well-rotted manure if it can be 

 done, making a furrow 4 to 6 inclies deep. In tliis sow tlie 

 seed and cover 2 inches deep. As soon as the plants begin 

 to show througli, fill in the furrow. This will secure a 

 deep planting without the bad effect of deep covering of 

 the seed at first, and so enable the plant to bloom continu- 

 ously tlirough the heat of summer. As fast as tlie flowers 

 come into full bloom or fade they should be cut off, for if 

 the pods are allowed to form the plants will stop blooming. 



For 2Sc. we will mail 10 assorted packets of the following 

 varieties.
