Peas can be sown very early in the spring, the hardy 
round-seeded varieties even as early as March 1. For 
the first sowings use the smooth or round-seeded sorts, but 
after the first of April change to the wrinkled kinds which, although 
not so hardy, are much superior in quality. Make additional sow¬ 
ings every two weeks up to July 1 for a continuous supply all 
summer, but arrange to put the May and June plantings on deep, 
rich soil where you can conveniently water them during dry 
weather. The seed should be covered about 2 inches deep, or 
somewhat deeper in warm, dry weather. The dwarf varieties 
require no support, but the tall sorts should be provided with 
bush or wire to support the vines. 
A quart of seed will sow 100 feet of single 
row; 1 to 2 V 2 bushels will sow an acre
