GARDEN PEAS—Early Varieties S.r.f'T”"’*’ 
# August. 
Thomas Laxton Peas 
(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 y 2 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.

well, and almost the entire crop 
can be gathered at a single 
picking. By mail postpaid, pkt.
