EARLY FLOWERIXG SPEXCER MIXTURE. These come into 
bloom three weeks before the standard Spencer varieties, but 
with the same long- stems and large, waved flowers. They 
have replaced the standard Spencers in greenhouse planting, 
and, though they do not grow quite as tall nor branch as 
much, their earliness and long season of bloom make them 
invaluable for outdoor planting, particularly in the short sea¬ 
soned north. Pkt., 10c; oz., iJ5c; % lb., SOc; ^ lb., $1.50; 1 lb.,

this i)lace. T had them last year and planted very late 
and a dry season. Had lovelv large blooms until frost.

A Few Suggestions 
The Sweet Pea plant or vine succeeds best in 
cool, moist, yet well drained soil. To secm-e the 
longest possible season ol bloom the seed must 
be planted early. The best mode of planting is 
the trench method. The trench is dug two feet 
deep and two feel wide, and filled nearly to the 
sui-face of the ground with a mixture of well 
rotted manure and rich soil, with a six-inch 
layer of soil at the top. The seed should be 
sown, two inches deep, at the rate of one ounce 
to twenty feet. During dry weather the ground 
should be thoroughly soaked once or twice each 
week. A light spraying of the vines in the eve¬ 
ning during hot w-eather will be found beneficial, 
and the earth should at all times be kept loose 
about the plants to a depth of two inches. 
Sweet Peas should be cut early in the morning 
and the more closely' the flowers are kept cut off 
the longer will be the period of bloom. Remem¬ 
ber. the vines quickly wither if allowed to pro¬ 
duce any great amount of seed. Spray thoroughly 
and often to prevent infection by aphis.
