The Pick of the Peas
lit. ;: to
Peas are alike In the pod but there
is a vast difference in the pods of
dtCforont varieties. . Tbere l a
chance, for experiments with peas
I nnch year, as we almost invariably
find a few new varieties coming in-
;to commerce duo to the indefatig
able labors of English pea breeders,
who. In recent years, have made
son than many other varieties, whirh
is one of. its strong points. The
quality is excellent. Noll's Excel
sior and American Wonder are ear
ly types that find favor in muny
gardens, the former being largely
used as an extra early pea.
"Top o' the Morn" and Loxtonian
are types of the English giant pod-

giant pods for dwarf vinos whore
. formerly the giant podded typo was
v limited exclusively to the tall or

' This Is a good pea season because

of those bold growers who always
chance putting in peas as soon' as
J the soil can be worked. Dwarf peas
, are growing in popularity and are
I the standard for the home gardener
I as they obviate, the necessity of get
ting brush or wire to hold the vines.
Little Marvel is one of the popu-
lar sorts, almost always a fine crop-
I per and bearing over a larger sea-
bearing. "Eight Weeks" is anoth
er newcomer highly n-coniniended,
dwarfer in growth than the two pre
ceding. Loxton, the English pea
wizard .has given a cross between
the hardy early round seeded peas
and the better quality, but more
tender, wrinkled peas inTuporb that
can be planted almost as early as
the round seeded types and is much
superior in quality. 4
Gracilis is a standard of excellence
and one of the finest flavored of the
sturdier growing semi-dwarf sorts.
Thomas Laxton is a selected type of
Gradus of stronger growth, reaching
from 3 to 3 feet in height. Tele
phone and Champion of Eifglnnd are
standard bush peas.

can tell you. They insist that
Americans don't do half a Job of
spading and don't turn the soil
much more than six inches deep.
This is probably true', because we
are accustomed to thrust the spade
into the soil along the line of least
resistance, which is in a slanting di
rection. We get easier leverage
'with the foot and quicker penetra
tion, but sacrifice depth in doing so.
- The correct manner is to drive the
blade of the spade Into, the soil in an
almost wBefpeadicuJar position and

much harder work than the ordinary
method, but it secures much better
depth. Although slower, it is well
worth the extra time and labor in
results, ' for it. adds ' two or three
inches to the' cultivation of the soil
as compared with the ordinary slant
vise method.
Having turned over the spade of
soil, pulverize it with the edge of
the spade, shattering the larger and
carder lumps with the flat of the
blade. ' By taking the task slowly,
thrusting the spade in as perpendicu
