Do You Know This Secret?

low these simple directions.

varieties all at once this Spring,

ture in the order named—pro¬ 
ducing a steady procession of big 
mouth-watering crops from about 
June 20th till late in August.

planted early —Late planted peas 
are always a disappointment

early and late crop peas insures 
a bountiful succession of this 
toothsome delicacy all season.
