WALTER S. SCHELL'S QUALITY SEEDS FOR THE MARKET- GARDENER 
PEAS 
(Srbsen) 
One quart will plant a row loo feet long; 2 bushels to the acre 
Note — The height to which a Pea grows depends to a large extent on 
the conditions of soil and weather. Rich soil produces more growth. 
The general crop of Peas grown for seed was so affected by the extreme 
hot. dry weather just at the time when they needed rain so badly, that 
the final harvest showed the crop to be the shortest that has been known 
for many years. If you intend to plant Peas this year buy them now for 
many varieties are only 10 to 20 per cent of a crop, and many who wait 
will be disappointed.
