PEAS for the Garden 



CuLTOTE. The dwarf varieties should be liber- 

 ally manured; the tall sorts will run too much to 

 vine if heavily manured, it being better to depend 

 on the richness of the land that was previously in 

 good condition. Plant the dwarfs in rows 2 feet 

 apart; those varieties attaining a height of from 2 

 to 3 feet in rows 3 feet apart; and the rows of the 

 tallest sorts 4 feet apart. Bushing the tall Itind 

 wiien 6 inches high, on poles set out every 6 to 8 

 feet, with twine fastened to them about 4 inches 

 apart, will answer nicely. Tlie smooth varieties 

 can be planted in February and March; the 

 wrinkled ones in April and May. Plant several 

 sorts at the same time, or the same variety every 

 19 days, for successive crops. Peas do not lil<e hot, 

 dry weather. For late crop, plant in August, 1 pint 

 to 75 feet, 1 }^ to 2 bushels an acre. One pound is 

 about 1 pint; 2 pounds, 1 quart; 15 pounds, 1 

 peck.
