MAKE LARGE PLANTINGS OF PEAS IN YOUR GARDEN 
Plant one lb. to one hundred feet of drill. 90 to 150 lbs. per acre, or 175 
lbs. if broadcast. 
For very early peas the soil should be light cmd warm. Prepare the 
seed bed in the loll and plant as early in the spring as the soil con be 
worked. It is best to double rows about six inches apart and then leave 
a space of thirty inches to the next double row. Do not plant in heavy, 
sticky soil, as tne seed will rot before germinating. Plant Ea/ly, Second 
Early and Late sorts for succession. Many make too small plantings of 
peas. Plant plenty; 20 feet of double row is required per consumer. They 
are very fine food and take the place of many tnings you would otherwise 
buy. 
By the new freezing process, green shelled peas may be had through¬ 
out a longer season. The shelled peas are blanched one minute and frozen 
solid, holding in cold storage. Asgrow No. 40 is the best sort for this' 
purpose.
