Good Garden Peas S**<04 Ter 
Inoculate This Seed With NOD-O-GEN. 
One Ib. will plant about 100 ft.; 70 to 85 Ibs. an acre. 
Peas of the extra early, smooth class are first to be planted in the spring. The wrinkled 
sorts follow later, as they are not quite so hardy. The tall, late varieties need brush, wire 
or some other support. Though light, warm soil is desirable for the extra early varieties, 
peas generally produce a much larger crop on soil which is moderately heavy. 
Plant the early and dwarf varieties in drills 214 feet apart and 3 or 4 inches deep, cover 
with only 1 inch of soil and fill the trench gradually as plants grow. Plant the taller and 
later varietes in rows 8 to 4 feet apart and 5 to 6 inches deep, covering as already sug- 
gested. The tall, late varieties, plant in double rows.
