PEAS 
Green peas are a vegetable that, once 
grown, easily convince the grower that 
there are no vegetables like those pro- 
duced in the home garden and served 
really fresh. It is important to plant 
taller varieties only where brush or wire 
can be supplied as support. 
Peas are one of the earliest crops to be put in the 
ground, as hot weather is usually disastrous to 
satisfactory production. Plant smooth-seeded 
varieties as soon as the soil is workable, and the 
superior-flavored wrinkled varieties (marrowfats) 
two weeks later. Several varieties will insure a 
long, productive season. Seeds should be placed 
2 inches deep and an inch apart in single or double 
rows 2% feet apart. Thin to 3 inches. On land 
where peas have not been grown before, treatment 
with Legume-Aid is often helpful. A half pound of 
seed should be used for a 50-foot row.
