Peas 
A packet of seed will sow about 10, feet of row; 1 pound 100 feet; 120 pounds will sow an acre. 
What is more delicious than young green Peas freshly picked off the vine and cooked immediately. Plant 
Peas to eat fresh and to can. Sow thickly, allowing 12 to 16 plants to grow per foot of row. Seeded in 
early spring, cover with 1 to 2 inches of pulverized soil. Many gardeners increase their yields by using 
seed inoculants. (See page 59.) The sowing of early, medium and late varieties is preferred to successive 
seedings of one variety. Tall growing and late varieties will need support such as chicken wire or brush.
