Summer-= flowering Sweet Peas (ouTpDoor cULTURE) 

_Sow as soon as the ground can be worked. Dig a trench about a foot wide and deep, fill with soil and rotted stable manure in equal parts, or 
soil with one-third Humus mixed with it and some General Garden Fertilizer added. Tread firmly. Make a single groove about 34 inch deep; 
sow seeds every 2 inches, and cover. When the plants are 3 to 4 inches, thin to 6 inches apart. Supports 4 feet or more high should be provided. 
The Sweet Pea is a moisture-loving plant, and by May the plants will require water. Dress with Mulch-o-Nure, old stable manure, Sawco- 
nure or peat-moss and soak well as needed.
