STVEET PEAS should be sown in drills as early as possible 

 in spring, in rich, friable soil. Prepare the bed thor- 

 oughly, working in a quantity of well-rotted manure, 

 if it can be done, making a furrow 4 to 6 inches deep. In 

 this sow the seed and cover 2 inches deep. As soon as the 

 plants begin to show through, fill in the furrow. This will 

 secure a deep planting without the bad effect of deep cover- 

 ing of the seed at first, and so enable the plant to bloom con- 

 tinuously through the heat of summer. As fast as the flow- 

 ers come into full bloom or fade they should be cut off. for 

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