bloom. One ounce will plant a single row 25 feet long. 
CULTURE OF SWEET PEAS. Prepare a deep trench, removing top soil and loosen subsoil, 
working into it some well rotted manure, replace top soil, leaving it 4 to 5 inches deep. Sow Sweet 
Pea seed in bottom of trench, 12 to 15 seeds to the foot for each row, then cover seed with 2 or 
3 inches of soil and as vines grow, gradually fill up to the level. 
Sweet Peas must be sown early in the spring to get the best results, just as early as you 
can possibly work your soil.
