GARDEN PEAS 
CULTURE—Peas may be planted in almost any kind of soil. 
In light soil during the warmer months they should be planted 
about 3 inches deep so as to be near moisture. In heavier soils 
or in fall months plant about 1 in. deep, that warmth may pene- 
trate and help germinate the seed. Rows should be about 2% 
to 3 feet apart. Excess:ve moisture will rot the seed, so do not 
irrigate after seed is planted until the plants are well out of © 
the ground. Cultivate after each irrigation. Usual planting is 
at rate of 60 pounds per acre. One pound will plant a row of 
150 feet. Loan
