GARDEN PEAS 
From our own experience and from results obtained in the gardens of our customers, we offer 
you these ten kinds of Peas for both the home and the market garden. 
Sow the seed just as early in the spring as possible for the best growing time is in cool weather. 
Plant the seed of early, medium season and late Peas at the same time rather than three suc- 
cessive plantings of one kind. Sow the seed 2 inches apart, 2 inches deep, in rows 2 feet apart 
Treat the seed with Nitragin. It helps make greater yields. A package of seed sows a row about 
30 feet long; 1 pound 300 feet. One pint weighs 1 pound. 
* The star before the variety name indicates that it is a good kind to freeze for food 
locker storage.
