PEAS 
A packet of seed will sow about 10 feet of row, a pound 100 feet. Two to four bushels per acre. 
A pound is about a pint and 15 Ibs. equals a peck. 























Sow Plenty of Peas 
There is no more delicious vegetable than fresh, young green peas picked right off the yines in your garden 
and cooked immediately. If the garden is small, sow all the land you can spare. When you are eating and enjoy- 
ing luscious green peas from your own garden you will not regret the space they take. After the peas are gone, 
the ground can be used for late cabbage, turnips, spinach, lettuce, ete. 
Peas should be planted as early in the spring as the soil can be worked. Make a trench about 2 in. deep and 
scatter the peas just so they are not touching each other. The rows should be 2% to 3 ft. apart. ! 
It is well to sow early, medium and late kinds at the same time so they will mature in succession. This is | 
better than to sow one kind three or four times during the season. See collections on next page. 
At the prices here quoted, we prepay transportation charges on peas to places in the United 
States. For larger quantities write for special prices.

160 GREATER PROGRESS. (18 in.) 62 days. Large Podded Early Type. A 
wonderful variety, introduced by us several years 
ago, and now the leading large early pea, for both home and market growers. As the 
name implies, it is an improved variety of the Progress type, bearing tremendous crops 
of exceptionally even, handsome pods. 
The vines are dwarf—only about 18 inches high, but they are literally loaded with 
large, dark green, well-filled pods 4 to 4% inches long.. The peas are sweet and tender and

170 LITTLE MARVEL. Large Podded Strain. (15 in.) 62 days. This 
pea lives up to its name—it is a real ‘“‘marvel” for home gardens because 
of its tremendous yields and delicious quality. Formerly considered too 
small by some people, this fine pea has now been improved to produce 
broader and slightly longer pods and considerably larger peas. The 
peas are just as sweet and fine flavored as ever and they stand longer 
than most kinds without getting tough. The dwarf vines are wonder- 
fully prolific, producing great quantities of tightly filled, deep green 
pods, averaging a good three inches long, and ripening shortly after 
World’s Record. We highly recommend this strain, particularly for 
home gardens. Well adapted for quick freezing.
