How fo Grow Sweet Peas 
Successfully 
Sow seed as soon as the ground can be 
worked in the spring. Dig a trench about a 
foot wide and deep, fill in with 6 inches of 
well-rotted stable manure; tread down firmly 
and replace the good garden soil. Draw a single 
straight line in the middle of the prepared sur¬ 
face, about three-fourths inch deep; sow seed 
at even distances of about 3 inches, and cover. 
When the plants grow about 3 or 4 inches high, 
thin out to 6 inches from each other. As soon 
as the vines reach a height of about 8 inches, 
proper supports should be provided. 
The Sweet Pea is a moisture-loving plant, 
and by the month of May the plants will re¬ 
quire water. Use a mulch of old stable manure 
or r>eat moss and soak well with the hose as 
needed.

EARLY FLOWERING SWEET PEAS 
This new race of Sweet Peas has the large, waved and frilled, long-stemmed flower of the 
Spencer Orchid-Flowering type, but blooms a month early. If you will keep them picked, 
they will flower for three months. Plant them early. They are particularly adapted for growing 
under glass during the winter and for outdoor growing in the southern part of the country, 
where the summer-flowering kinds have not proved satisfactory. Complete cultural directions
