PEAS 
Culture —Peas require a rich, light, dry and sandy soil and they should be sown as soon as 
the ground is in working condition. Avoid using a coarse, rank manure, however, as it drives 
the plants to vines without pods. They are usually planted in double rows for home garden, 
6 to 8 inches apart for the tall varieties; single rows, 1 foot apart for the dwarf sorts. For market 
crop in rows, drill 1 to 2 inches deep. in 3-foot rows. Successive plantings can be made every 
10 days up to the middle of July. The wrinkled varieties are not so hardy as the smooth sorts 
a should not be planted as early. One pound is sufficient for 100 feet of row, and 2 bushels 
or an acre.
