Early varieties 
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 and warm Prepare the seed 
bed in the fall and plant as early in the spring as the soil can 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 the seed will rot before germinating. Plant Early, 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 things you would otherwise buy. 
By the new freezing process, green shelled peas may be had throughout 
a longer season. The shelled peas are blanched and frozen solid, holding 
in cold storage. Asgrow No. 40 is one of the best sorts for this purpose.
