GARDEN PEAS—FEarly Varieties 
CULTURE—Sow in rows 3 or 4 feet apart and about 1 inch apart in the rows, 3 to 4 
inches deep. Peas grown as a market crop are never staked, but when the taller sorts are 
grown for private use they are generally sown in double rows, 6 to 8 inches apart, and 
staked with brush. For best results all garden peas require good, strong, fertile soil. One 
pound will plant about 50 feet of drill. 
Peas by Parcel Post — Add 23c for 1 lb. — 4c for each additional pound, see page 1.
