GARDEN PEAS 
Peas can be sown very early in the spring, the early smooth- 
seeded varieties even as early as March 1. For the first sowings 
use the smooth or round-seeded sorts, but after the first of April 
change to the wrinkled kinds which, although not so hardy, are 
much superior in quality. Make additional sowings every two 
weeks up to June | for a continuous supply, but arrange to put the 
later plantings on deep, rich soil where you can conveniently 
water them during dry weather. Plant dwarf varieties in rows 2 
to 2! feet apart, tall varieties about 3 feet apart. Cover both 
kinds about 2 inches and thin to stand 3 inches apart in the row. 
The tall varieties do best for late planting, and while some people 
prefer to provide supports for them they are really not necessary.
