Our Seed Peas are of the best 

 quality obtainable, being all grown 

 far North, thoroughly cleaned and 

 carefully hand-picked. They are 

 raised from the finest selected strains, 

 and the growing crops are rogued to 

 remove all runners and improper 

 types of growth. The Extra Early 

 varieties are very hardy, and will 

 endure a great amount of cold ; 

 should be planted as soon as the 

 ground can be got ready — the sooner 

 the better. Of late years some 

 gardeners make a sowing of Extra 

 Earlies late in the fall, seed lying 

 dormant in the soil all winter and 

 germinating very early in the 

 spring, The larger wrinkled varieties 

 are not nearly as hardy, and the seed 

 is apt to rot instead of germinating 

 if planted before the soil becomes 

 slightly warmer on the advance of 

 spring. 

 For private use sow in double rows. 18 inches apart, and three inches apart in the rows. For 



market, in single rows 1 inch apart and 3 inches deep, and the rows from 2 to 3 feet apart.

 pods come rather late or about the same 

 time as the Telephone and Stratagem Peas.

 pods and continue bearing for a long time.

 and one and a-half inches broad, thick and 

 flesh}'. Broken and boiled like string beans 

 and served with butter sauce, they have a 

 luscious flavor. Qt., 30c 

 Pedigree Extra Early. 22 



Extra Early Alaska. 



Extra Early Alaska. — The earliest Pea known, very uni- 

 form in growth and ripening; 90 per cent, of the pods can 

 be gathered at the first picking. The dark green color of 

 the pods make it extremely desirable, as it can be carried 

 long distances without losing color, grows two feet high, of 

 the very finest quality. Qt., 15c; peck, 85c; bush., $3.25. 



(New) Prolific Early Market. — This if the largest podded 

 of all Extra Earlies. longer podded and more prolific than 

 Pedigree Extra Early, for which it is a fit companion and 

 close second, as it comes in only four to five days later. 

 The vines average twenty-four to thirty inches high and 

 produce pods singly. One picking will take about three- 

 fourths of the crop, and a second picking, which is to be 

 made about three days later, will take the balance. It is 

 remarkably uniform and very free from spots of any kind. 

 The peas are of the finest quality. Qt., 20c; peck, $1.25; 

 bush., $4.50.
