 : *YORKSHIRE GEM. We can strongly recommend this as

feet.

TELEGRAPH. 



Those marked thus * are Wrinkled Varieties. 



* CHAMPION OF ENGLAND. This is yet, by general consent, 

 acknowledged to be the best of the late varieties. It is a tall 

 growing sort. The pods and peas are of the largest size and 

 excellent quality. Height, 5 feet. 15 cts.'pfc/j; 25 cts. qt. ; 

 $1.60 peck; $5.50 bush. 



^TELEPHONE. A tall, wrinkled marrow, enormously productive, 

 and of the best quality. Is a strong grower, averaging 18 pods 

 to the stalk. The pods are of the largest size, and contain 

 from 6 to 7 large peas. A desirable sort for the family 

 garden. Height, 4i£ feet. 20 cts. pt. ; 35 cts. qt. ; $2.50 peck ;

*SANDERS MARROW. A tall, .very late and immense cropping 

 variety. The pods are produced in pairs, and are well filled 

 with fine, large wrinkled peas, the largest that we have ever 

 seen ; the quality is sweet and delicious. It has the desirable 

 peculiarity of retaining its deep green color when dished for 

 the table. Sander's Marrow is a great favorite with experts in 

 Great Britain, and should be grown by every one desiring a 

 really first-class Pea. Height, 5 feet. 25 cts. pt. ; 40 cts. qt. ;

* AMERICAN CHAMPION. The number of testimonials we 

 received favorable to the American Champion Pea only confirms 

 the high opinion we had formed of it in our trials before offer- 

 ing it for sale. We consider it one of the very best late Peas 

 sent out in years. It is one of the largest of all Peas, 

 enormously productive, and its flavor and quality closely ap- 

 proach that of the well known Champion of England. The 

 pods are produced in pairs and are well filled, and are much 

 larger than those of the Champion of England. Each pod 

 contains from nine to twelve large, fine peas. It is a tall grow- 

 ing sort, of branching habit ; it should be sown thinly. Height, 

 4i feet. (See cut.) 25c. pt. ; 40c. qt.; $3.00 peck; $10.00 bu.

 land. 15c. pt. ; 25c. qt. ; $1.00 peck ; $5.50 bush.

 sort ; largely grown as a field variety. Height, 5 feet. 15 cts. 

 pt. ; 20 cts. qt. ; $1.00 peck; $3.00 bush. 



BLACK-EYED MARROWFAT. This is extensively grown as 

 a field Pea ; hardy and productive, but not so fine flavored as 

 most other varieties. Height, 5 feet. 15 cts. pt. ; 20 cts. qt. ; 

 $1.00 peck ; $3.00 bush. 



The success I had last year with my Mikado Tomato must have been great. I set out perhaps a dozen plants, and from them we must have picked over two bushels ot 

 ripe tomatoes, while quite as many were caught by our hard frosts. One specimen weighed 4 lbs. — Annie Howells Thichette, Ottawa, Can., February 5th, 1889.
