SWEET PEAS 
Sweet Peas should be sown as early in Spring 
as the ground can be prepared. Manure well, 
making the drills about five inches deep. Sow 
plentifully, covering about two inches deep, and 
by degrees, as the vines grow up, fill the 
trenches with soil, care being taken not to draw 
the soil on top of the growing vines. The fol¬ 
lowing list embraces all the most desirable new 
and distinct large-flowering varieties of recent 
introduction, which cannot fail to give satisfac¬ 
tion. One ounce will sow about 8 feet of row, 
%. lb. for 35 feet.
