SWEET PEAS. 



TEN 5c. PAPERS OR FOUR lOc. PAPERS 

 MAILED FOR 25c. 



CLLTLRE. 



SWEET PEAS should be sown In drills as early as possible in 

 spring:, in rich, friable soi! Prepare the bed thoroughly, 

 ■workingr 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 covering of the .seed at first, and 

 so enable the plant to bloom continuously through the heat of 

 summer. As fast as the 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.
