Culture. Sow early in the Spring in rows 18 to 24 inches apart. The Peas will give 
quicker returns if covered only one inch deep, and where earliness is the most important 
ttiey may be treated in that way, but longer pods and more of them will be produced if 
the" seed is planted in trenches three to six inches deep and covered with one or two 
inches of soil. When the plants are five or six inches high, fill the trench level with the 
surface. Sow every two weeks for succession. They may be sown broadcast and plowed 
under. Two pounds for 100 feet of drill; 2 to 3 bushels In drills per acre.

and for that reason this variety may be

ground. The vines grow to a height of 
2 Yz feet. It is a very heavy and even 
cropper—can be cleaned at two pickings. 
This variety is a great favorite with gar¬ 
deners for the early market. M lb., 15c;
