Gradus Peais 
Garden Peas 
One pound will plant 100 feet of row 
As soon as the ground can be worked into a fine, loose 
condition after the frost is out, the extra-early, smooth- 
seeded varieties of Peas should be planted. Plantings for a 
succession can be made at intervals of twelve days up to 
June 1, using either smooth- or wrinkled-seeded varieties. 
Sowings should be discontinued from June 1 until August 1, 
when the fall sowing should be made. Use for this an extra- 
early variety. Best results will be obtained if the seed is sown 
in double rows 6 to 8 inches apart, and 3 to 4 feet between 
the double rows. Cover firmly with 2 inches of fine soil. Those 
varieties which grow over 3 feet high should be supported 
with brush or trellis. Thorough cultivation will keep the weeds 
down. The crop matures in from 8 to 10 weeks after sowing.
