Thomas Laxton 
(Varieties marked with star (*) are wrinkled) 
2 pounds will plant 100 feet of drill; 90 pounds an acre. 
Peas do best in a light, rich, loamy soil that has been liberally manured 
the previous season. Plant the smooth varieties as early as the ground can 
be worked. The wrinkled peas are not as hardy and 
should be planted later, but they are sweeter and 
better flavored. For a continuous crop, plant every 
two weeks—as late as August for a late crop. Plant 
2 to 3 inches deep in double rows 6 to 8 inches apart, 
2 54 to 3 feet between the double rows; stake the tall 
varieties with brush and work the earth toward them two or three times 
during - growth. Gather as fast as they are fit to use, otherwise they will 
stop bearing.
