GARDEN PEAS 
Our Peas are all Idaho grown, from 
select seed stock of excellent quality. 
The earliest sorts can be planted just as soon 
as the ground is in condition to work. They 
are not injured by light frosts. Wrinkled 
varieties should be planted a little later, for 
they are tender. For fall crop sow in August. 
Culture. Peas succeed best in light, rich loamy 
soil. The early dwarf varieties can be planted in 
rows 2 feet apart, the tall varieties in rows 3 feet 
apart. Seeds should be planted at a depth of 114 to 
2 inches. All varieties growing more than 1/4 feet 
high do better if staked up or otherwise supported 
when 4 to 6 inches tall. 
A packet sows 20 feet of row, a pound 100 
feet, 120 to 180 pounds an acre.
