PARSNIP 
CULTURE—They do best in deep, rich, sandy soil, but will make good roots 
on any soil which is deep and mellow and moderately rich. As the seed is some¬ 
times slow to germinate, it should be sown as early as possible. Cover % inch 
deep, and press the soil firmly over the seed; give frequent cultivation, and thin 
the plants 6 to 8 to the foot. As they are improved by frost, a part of the crop 
should be left in the ground forspring use. One ounce will sow 150 feet of drill. 
Five pounds to one acre. 
SUGAR OR HOLLOW CROWNED 
The best for table use, a vegetable of merit, easily raised, and of great 
productiveness. Pkt. 5c; oz. 15c; % lb. 35c; lb. $1.00. 
PEAS 
CULTURE—Peas do best in sandy soil, not too 
rich or they will run up to vines. The smooth kinds 
can be sown as soon as the ground can be worked, 
but the wrinkled varieties should not be planted till 
it is warmer or they will rot. Sow in single or 
double rows from 1 % to 3 feet apart, dropping a 
pea every inch and covering from 2 to 3 inches 
deep. For a succession, sow every ten days up to 
July. One pound to 50 feet of drill, 90 to 120 pounds 
to the acre. 
In ordering peas, add 8c for first pound and one 
and one-tenth cents for each additional pound for 
postage.
