SWEET PEAS 
Dultural Directions. The soil for Sweet Peas should 
be rich and deep. The seed should be sown as early 
in the season as the ground can be worked, and in a 
position where the Peas will be fully exposed to sun- 
light and air on both sides of the row. It is best 
to make a trench or furrow about G inches deep, in 
the bottom of which sow the seed. Cover with about 
an inch of soil, pressing it down firmly. As soon as 
they are above ground, thin out to two to four inches 
apart; when planted too close they do not attain their 
full development. They generally are allowed to run 
upon a wire netting four to five feet high. 
During dry weather they should be watered thor- 
oughly and frequently and give an application of 
liquid manure once a week. The flowers should be 
cut as often as possible, to prevent the plants from 
running to seed, which would stop them from con- 
tinuing in bloom.
