Plant one lb. to one hundred feet of drill—55 to 120 lbs. per acre. 
For very early peas the soil should be light and warm. Prepare 
the seed bed in the fall and plant as early in the spring as the soil 
can be worked. It is best to double rows about six inches apart and 
then leave a space of thirty inches to the next double row. Do not 
plant in heavy, sticky soil, as the seed will rot before germinating. 
Plant Early, Second Early and Late sorts for succession. Many 
make too small planting of peas. Plant plenty. They are very fine 
food and take the place of many things you would otherwise buy.
