One pound will plant 100 feet of drill. 
CULTURE—Peas are a cool-weather crop and must be 
planted as soon as the ground can be worked in spring. A 
rich, light soil is required and plenty of water if a full crop is to 
be produced. It will pay to use a balanced commercial fertilizer 
in the row when the seeds are sown. (See page 76) Sow in 
rows 2 ft. apart and 2 in. apart in the row. Avoid crowding, 
as closer planting will produce no greater crop. Tall varities 
must be supported with light stakes or brush.
