GARDEN PEAS—Early Varieties 
(Varieties marked with star (*) are wrinkled) 
Peas do best in a lig'ht, rich, loamy soil that has been liberally manured the previous season. Plant the smooth 
varieties as early as the grround can be worked. The wrinkled peas are not as hardy and should be planted 
later, but they are sweeter and better flavored. Por a continuous crop, plant every two weeks—as late as 
Aug'ust for a late crop. Plant 2 to 3 Inches deep in double rows 6 to 8 inches apart, 2^ to 3 feet between the 
double rows; stake the tall varieties with brush and work the earth toward them two or three times during* 
growth. G-ather as fast as they are fit to use, otherwise they will stop bearing.
