sow PEAS.
CultiVutOr

Those who are SO fortunate as to- have
sufficient seed peas should plant every
acre from which small grain has been
removed in this rcnovating crop. If
the land is reasonably fertile SOW broad
cast at the rate of one bushcl per acre
Il thin plant in drills two to two and Il
half feet apart, eight TO ten peas to the
hill every two feet.
The following is an economical way
of planting them. Mark off the rows
with bulltonguc, followed by large
shovel. Drop the peas in this furrow
and cover with two furrows of good
onc-horsc turn plow with the bar side
next to the peas. Enough earth will be
thrown upon the pea seed to ensure ger
mination, while the plow slice will be
thrown into the middlcs, covering the
grass between the rows. After the
peas arc large enough to be plowcd. one
shovel furrow will break the middlcs.
The plow slices thrown over the surface
prevent il from becoming hard and at
the same time kills any grass which is
growing in the stubblc.
