PEAS 
The best time to plant peas in our locality is from October 
1st to March 1st. Planted later than this they will produce 
only a small crop, as very hot weather will stunt their 
growth, except along the coast where the weather is cool 
and moist, they can be planted practically the entire year. 
Re extremely careful, do not plant peas when the ground 
is wet or soggy as they will easily rot; however, when they 
are out of the ground they will stand a great deal of frost 
and cold weather, except if a heavy frost catches them just 
after blooming it will kill the pods. They will bloom again 
and form other pods but the crop will not be so heavy. 
Plant 40 pounds of seed per acre either in hills or drills.
