Champion of England.— A uni- 

 versal favorite, delicious flavor, profuse 

 bearer of large pods, filled well with large 

 green wrinkled peas. Height about four 

 feet. Qt., 25c; peck, 75c; bush., $2.75. 

 \J[>warf Champion. — This is a 

 dwarf-growing strain of the popular 

 Champion of England, which for many 

 years has been the standard large-podded 

 late or main crop variety. While grow- 

 ing only two feet in height, it retains all 

 the excellence of the parent tall variety. 

 In warm soils and locations this dwarf 

 type will give better results than the old 

 strain. The vines are strong, but short- 

 jointed and stocky in growth, setting 

 large pods very freely. The pods are 

 three inches in length, round and well 

 filled to the end. Qt., 25c; peck, $1.25; 

 bush., $4.00. 



uNott's Excelsior.— One of the best early dwarf Peas. It combines the good qualities 

 or the American Wonder and Premium Gem Peas. The vines are larger and more 

 productive than American Wonder and earlier than Premium Gem. The peas in sweet- 

 ness and quality unsurpassed. Qt., 20c; peck, $1.25; bush., $5.00. 

 Vffreminm Gem.— This variety is nearly as early as the American Wonder and the 

 very productive vine is decidedly larger, growing to a height of from fifteen to eighteen 

 inches. The pods are larg e an d crowded with six to eight very large peas of fine quality. 

 Qt., 20c; peck, $1.25; bush., 84.50. 



^Yorkshire Hero. — A most popular and extremely productive second-early variety, 

 smrowing two and a-half feet in height. The vine is close-jointed and thickly hung 

 ■with/round well-filled pods three inches in length. Peas are of good size, tender, and 

 of vfery sweet flavor. From its short stocky growth and great productiveness it is also 

 one/of the most profitable varieties to plant in the field for market. Qt., 20c; peck, 

 J5of; bush., $3.00. 



*mfDai»y, or Dwarf Telephone (New). — This new variety is a second early, of 

 rooust but remarkably even growth. The vines are from sixteen to eighteen inches

 large.-and of a very dark green color, very prolific and highly flavored. Qt.,

VGradus, or Prosperity Peas.— Comparatively new, of English origin, 

 is an extra early wrinkled variety, very prolific with large dark geen pods, of a 

 very fine flavor. Vines grow from 2)4 to 3 feet. The Peas remain tender and 

 sweet for a long time after they are large enough to use, as the vines continue 

 in bearing for some little time after the first pods are ready. We consider it 

 oneisof the most desirable for the familv garden or home use. Qt., 25c; peck, 

 5; bush., $6.50.

 that of the Gradus, but is usually three or four days later for market, while the 

 large peas are a deeper, richer green. The pods are square at the end instead of 

 having a long, sloping point, and is considered by some to be of a better flavor 

 thai Gradus. Qt., 25c; peck, $1.50; bush., $6.00.

 of earliness, growing about ten inches high, and produces a profusion of good
