Sweet Peas are more than flowers—they are a necessity for every garden. They lend themselves readily and easily to 
beautifying schemes of the city and country farmer. 
LOCATION—Any location will be suitable that is well drained and that will get free circulation of air. Early plant¬ 
ing is essential with sweet peas in order to give the roots a chance to develop more rapidly than the tops during the cool 
weather. Early plantings produce blossoms before the intense heat of the summer comes which is likely to wilt the plants if 
they do not have well developed roots. Sowings should be made in furrows 12 inches deep and the seed covered with an inch 
of soil and the trench filled in as the plants grow. It is a help to soak the seeds in lukewarm water overnight before sow¬ 
ing. Use one ounce to twelve feet of row. 
SPENCER SWEET PEAS— Because of such unusual size, waved or fluted appearance and charming blendings of har¬ 
monious colors, the new Spencer type may be appropriately described as Gigantic Orchid Flowered. The flowers are not

waved.
