Thos. Laxton—Finest of all Peas for Canning 
GARDEN PEAS 


2 pounds will plant 
about 100 feet of drill 
Peas do best in a light, rich soil; for private use sow in double rows 6 to 8 inches apart, 
the rows 2 to 4 feet apart, the tall ones requirin 
varieties as soon as the ground can be worked in M 
weeks until June. A good crop can be secured bys 
Fall use. The wrinkled varieties are not as hardy 
g brush. Commence sowing the extra early 
arch; continue for a succession every two 
owing the extra early sorts in August for 
as the small round sorts, and if planted 
early should have a dry soil, or they are liable to rot in the ground; they are, however, the 
sweetest and best flavored.
