MAESHALL’S VEGETABLE SEEDS. 
PEAS 
One quart will plant about 125 feet of drill. 
Peas mature earliest in a light, rich soil; for 
general crop a rich deep loam is the best. 
When grown in gardens sow in double rows 
6 to 8 inches apart, the rows 2 to 4 feet apart, 
the tall one requiring brush. Commence sow¬ 
ing the extra early varieties as early as the 
ground can be worked in February or March; 
and continue for a succession every two weeks 
until July.
