CANNELLS’ GOLD MEDAL SWEET PEAS. 
Several acres under cultivation. 
We devote much time and attoation to the cultivation and selection of this indispensable and sweetest of all flowers. 
They are of easy oultivalion and thrive almost anywhere, and if sown early ensures still greater success and certainty. .So as to obtain the largest and 
finest blossoms a trench should be opened about 1 foot deep, and put in 8 inches of well-rotted manure, followed with 4 inches of soil, and well incorporate 
or mix, then proceed to sow the seeds over this, 3 inches apart along the row, and covering with earth to the depth of an inch. This should be done as 
early as the ground can be conveniently prepared in the spring, and as the young plants grow, fill up the trench around them with good soil.
