After trying to grow Peas without any success, 
for quite a number of years, I thought I would 
try once more, so last spring I bought a pound of 
Giant Laxtonian from you and I have just finished 
picking the crop grown from those Peas. I was 
very well pleased—so much so that J weighed 
them, and I found that I had grown 27 pounds of 
fine peas from the pound of seed so I will praise 
them up to everybody that plants peas especially.

NORTHERN GROWN PEAS 
Sow 1 pound for 50 feet of drill; 2 to 3 bushels per acre. 
In order to have luscious, tender peas through¬ 
out the summer, even after hot weather sets in, 
plant all your peas early in spring, at the same 
time, using extra early, main crop, and late sorts. 
Peas require cool, moist weather and early plant¬ 
ing, to develop their roots and set the crop. They 
may be planted as soon as the ground can be 
worked, from April 1 to May 15, in this latitude. 
By planting such varieties as Extra Early Eight 
Weeks, Little Marvel, Thomas Laxton, Laxton’s 
Progress, Potlatch and Quite Content, you can pick 
peas from your garden almost until fall. 
CULTURE—Garden Peas do best in light, rich 
soil, and are quite hardy, requiring fairly cool 
weather. The extra early varieties can be sown 
just as soon as the ground can be worked, early in 
April here. Sow in rows 24 to 26 inches apart, 
covering the seed about 2 inches deep. The tall 
varieties should be supported with brush, or twine 
and light stakes.
