SHELLING PEAS 
If you have an old-fashion 
rubber wringer, you can cut 
the pea vines just above the 
ground, in the morning when 
they are chisp, and run them 
thru the wringer, bottoms first. 
Place a wash tub under the 
wringer to catch the peas. 
i They willpop right out of 
the shells.

requirements, being growers.

Sweet Corn 
CULTURE: Sweet Corn will stand no 
frost, so should be planted late in May; 
little is gained by planting when the soil 
is cold, the seed only rots. Plant in hills 
of 3 seed and rows 30-36 inches apart.It 
will polinate better if planted in patches 
rather than long rows, thus forming per- 
fect ears.

lb. Postpaid.
