® For market, the leaves 
may be tied in small attrac- 
tive bunches. Very desirable 
for garnishing, or if to be 
used for flavoring, the leaves 
may be dried crisp, rubbed 
to a powder and kept in 
bottles. The seed is very slow 
to germinate and the same 
method as used for starting 
parsnip seed should be fol- 
lowed. Plant % oz. to 100 
feet of row or 3 lbs. per acre 
to a depth of not more than 
1%, inch. Rows may be one 
to two feet apart and the 
plants should be thinned 8 
to 12 inches apart in the 
row. Cutting the leaves often 
will improve their quality.

OLE Early Varieties 
® Plant one Ib. to one hundre 
175 lbs. if broadcast. 
For very early peas the soil should be light and warm. Prepare the 
seed bed in the fall and plant as early in the spring as the soil can be 
worked. It is best to double rows about six inches apart and then 
leave a space of thirty inches to the next double row. Do not plant 
in heavy, sticky soil, as the seed will rot before germinating. Plant 
Early, Second Early and~ Late sorts for succession. Many make too 
small plantings of peas. Plant plenty; 20 feet of double row is required 
per consumer, They are very fine food and take the place of many 
things you would otherwise buy.
