70 of the best varieties in existence be¬ 
comes more popular. These 70 va¬ 
rieties is our selection of some 500 
named sorts and contains no dull col¬ 
ors, such as are usually found in mix¬ 
tures. Sweet Peas can be sown up to 
April 1st in rows, where they can be 
‘ brushed” or run on wires. If a long, flowering period 
is desired dig trenches about 12 inches deep, fill in 0 
inches with well-rotted manure and top soil well mixed; 
plant seed on this and cover 2 to 3 inches. After seed 
comes up keep drawing in earth until the trench is full.

SPENCER TYPE SWEET PEAS 
A new race or type, with extra large flowers, fully double the size 
of the older forms, under good cultivation. Many of the Spencers 
have wavy and fluted-edged petals, which, with their rich coloring, 
give an almost orchid-like appearance. The Spencer type will not 
stand careless cultivation. We have these wonderful sweet peas, which 
attracted so much attention at the Panama-Pacific Exposition at San 
Francisco, in separate colors and also a splendid mixture of these and 
many other colors. Our grower took the Grand l’rix for his collection 
of Growing Spencer Sweet Peas in the Exhibition Garden and the 
Medal of Honor for his collection of Cut Spencer Sweet Peas (display¬ 
ed at American Sweet Pea Society’s Show) at the Panama-Pacific Ex¬ 
position last year. In all he was awarded 9 Grand Prizes, 5 Medals 
of Honor, 10 Gold Medals and 2 Silver Medals, perhaps the largest 
number of awards given to any business. It is just such growers as 
this, growing seeds for Hastings, that makes Hastings’ Seeds the best 
seeds you can buy—the only kind you can afford to plant. SPENCER
