Luscious PEAS from Your Own Garden 
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

yielding and of excellent quality. 
CROP ROTATION IS IMPORTANT 
Crops of the same type, planted in 
the same place, year after year, deplete 
the sotl and cannot make the most and 
best growth. Although long-time crop 
rotation is often impracticable in the 
small home garden, changing the 
planting site each year, or shifting in- 
dividual crops from place to place is 
the only way to overcome serious soil 
infestation and soil depletion.

(See page 76.) Sow in rows 2 feet apart and 2 inches apart in the row. 
Avoid 
crowding, as closer planting will produce no greater crop. Tall varieties must be supported 
with light stakes or brush.

the roots of the peas. These nodules gather 
nitrogen from the air and convert it into 
plant food, storing it in the soil,
