The Pea is one of our most important crops, and to be successfully grown must be liberally 
treated. A deep, rich soil, well pulverized, and incorporated with a fair allowance of well-de¬ 
cayed manure, should be chosen for the principal crops. For early peas the ground does not 
require to be so rich. Sowing of the first early variety should be made in October, and the 
other varieties, for successive crops, planted every two weeks until April 1. 
Peas are sown in single or double rows, from 2 to 6 feet apart, according to the variety or 
the height to which they attain. Have rows of the dwarf varieties 2 feet apart, and those of the 
medium sorts from 3 to 4 feet apart, and the tall varieties from 5 to G feet apart. Tall varieties 
require sticks. Two pounds will sow 100 feet of row.
