Little Gem, 
Olds’ Fancy Garden Peas 
CULTURE: Early peas are grown 
with best results on light warm soils; 
main crop varieties on fairly heavy 
soils but, of course, peas will do well 
on most any good garden soil. Do not 
use much nitrogen fertilizer as that 
will cause a heavy leaf growth with 
fewer pods. Sow the extra early va- 
rieties in rows 2 to 3 inches deep and 
24% to 3 feet apart as soon as the 
ground can be worked and for suc- 
cession, plant every two weeks until 
the middle of June. Early varieties 
can be again planted in August and 
a good crop secured in the fall. One 
pound of seed will sow about 50 feet, 
120 to 160 pounds should be used 
for an acre. Use Nitragin on the 
seed. See next page. 
The varieties marked * are the 
wrinkled varieties. For large amounts 
see our Market Gardeners’ List oppo- 
site page 1. 
Varieties marked with « are excellent 
for freezing.
