he took some of the seeds along. BY
the time he got around to planting
them, the regular pea season was
long past and hot, dry weather had
arrived. Nevertheless, 60 of the
Egyptian peas were set out in a row
in front of the office of Col. Harlan
w. Holden, commandant of the CEN
ter's School of Applied Tactics.
Nurtured by Corporal Merle lib
belts, student in the Jungle Survival
Course, every one of the seeds germ
mated and flourished. Amazed ma
tives Of the vicinity, who never plant
peas after the middle of April, almost
refused to believe their eyes.
"Oh well, of course" one of them
said, anything given that kind of
careful cultivation ought TO grow, no
matter what season it was"
Corporal Tibbetts pointed to an
other luXuriant growth in the soil
outside Col. Holden's window, where
half dozen seeds had accidentally
been dropped. They seemed to be
getting along just as well as their
hand-manicured neighbours.
Another remarkable circumstance
intrigued the Florida farmers. The
off-season peas were given a wide
berth by the worms, beetles and green
lice which were chewing up all the
other vegetation in the vicinity.
Horticulturists said that the ances-
tors of the sleeping beauties had be.
come accustomed to growing in the
hot, dry climate of Egypt, which is
similar in many respects TO that of

ever seen. Remembering the curse
that was credited with having taken
the lives of 20 or more Of the scier.
tific invaders of the Pharaoh's eternal
privacy, some of the more supersti-
tious residents of Orlando are a little
chary about fooling with the off
spring OF anything that came from
Tutankhamen's tomb.
Recalling also the strange dust
which caused explosions in some Of
the Pharaohs' tombs, wary Floridians
aren't sure that the peas resistance
TO pests and drouth doesn't border
on the supernatural.
But curse or no curse, most of
the neighboring agriculturalists are
anxious TO try some of the ancient
legumes in their gardens. Some may
have the chance. Col. Holden has re.
fused to allow any of the present crop
to be eaten. He wants 10 accumulate
as large seed stock as possible.

THREE withered little peas from
the 3,300-year-old tomb of King
u Tutankhamen, so hardy that they
put our modern pampered peas to
shame and so old that they have out
lived the insect varieties that used
10 prey on them, may give Florida a
new, drouth-proof pest-free crop.
Seven.foot shoots that have sprung
up in an experimental bed at the
Army Air Forces Tactical Air Center

life remained in the desiccated seeds
after they had waited 80 centuries for
a chance to grow.
When Lord Carnarvon and Howard
Carter opened the tomb of young
King Tut in 1922, some simple grain
baskets were found among the S40,-
100000 worth of precious stones,
ieweled daggers, gloves, sandals,
canes, chairs, tables and bric-a.brac.
The baskets were filled with edibles

IA, or spirit. Much of the food had
disintegrated, but there was barley
which, on being analysed recently by
the Cereal Research Laboratories Of
the British Ministry of Foods, was
found to have a third as much ribo-
flavin and niacin, two vital vitamins,
as would be found in freshly har.
vested barley. Another basket con.

In 1886 an English archeologist who
had worked on the Tutankhamen
excavation sent three of the withered
little peas to an American friend,
Major Walter G. Dyer, who planted
them in Portsmouth, r. /.
To his surprise and delight, they
sprouted as though they had come
right out of the seed store. He
harvested his crop carefully and re-
planted it the following spring. That
year he got about a pound and
half of peas. Some Of them he
stored away, but the balance he
cooked and ate. They were tasty.

In fact, Florida was to them the
heaven that King Tut's embalmers
had hoped he would find.
The King Tut peas, which produce
from four to six to pod, are more
elongated and flatter than the average
pea. The seeds are darker, varying
from a rust color to deeper shades
of reddish brown. The blossom is
smaller and is tinted pink on the
white wings. The united petals which
form the keel are a reddish purple
and this shade is on the pod.
Altogether they're the strangest
