PEAS 
Peas are cool weather plants and 
sown as soon as the ground can 
be worked. The early, small, 
smooth-seeded varieties should be 
planted first; the large wrinkled- 
seeded sorts, which are sweeter and 
of better quality, are not so hardy 
and should be sown when _ the 
ground is a little warmer. 
Allow 2 to 3 lbs. per 100 feet of 
double row; 2 bushels per acre. 
Plant 2 to 3 inches deep in 88 inch 
double rows, 2 feet apart for dwarf 
sorts, 3 feet for the tall.
