GARDEN PEAS 
(IF BY MAIL, ADD POSTAGE) 
CULTURE —The extra early or smooth seeded varieties are 
very hardy and can be planted by January 15th, or as early in 
the Spring as the ground can be worked and until April 15th 
or later, while the wrinkled varieties are not as hardy and 
should not be planted until March 1st or later, as they are 
likely to rot if planted in cold, wet ground. The wrinkled va¬ 
rieties, however, are generally sweeter and of better flavor. 
Peas thrive best when planted in light, loamy soil, which has 
been well fertilized the previous autumn, as fresh, rank manure 
applied when planting induces too heavy a growth of vine. 
Plant in rows about 3 feet apart and cover 2 to 3 inches.

ALASKA--This is an old standard variety and a favorite kind 
with market gardeners for early planting, as it is early, 
hardy, ripens uniformly and retains its rich green color long 
after being picked. Because of these qualities and being 
green seeded, it is also the leading variety for canning pur¬ 
poses. Height 2J4 feet. Lb. 20c; 2 lbs. 35c; 5 lbs. 75c; 10 
lbs. $1.40; 100 lbs. $12.00.
