BOLGITINO'S SUPERIOR TILTiSKTl PEKS. 



THE MOST PRODUCTIVE STOCK SOLD. BEATS THEM ALL. 



Bolgiano's Extra Early Alaska Peas.— We 



have taken extra pains to make our stock of this 

 most valuable Pea exceptionally superior. By 

 careful selection, thoroughly rogueing, we have 

 developed a stock of this smooth, blue Pea, which 

 in evenness of growth of vine and early maturity 

 of pods is unequaled by any other blue-seeded 

 extra early Pea. The vines are about 2% feet high, 

 not branching, but bear 4 to 7 long pods, which are 

 filled with medium-sized, beautiful, bright green, 

 smooth Peas of excellent flavor. The dark green 

 color of the pods makes it exceptionally desirable 

 as a shipper, for it can be carried long distances 

 without losing its color, which quality, combined 

 with its earliness, uniformity of ripening and 

 luscious flavor, makes it one of the highest value 

 to market gardeners, truckers and canners. We 

 annually grow and sell thousands of bushels which 

 give th,e'best satisfaction. PKt. 5c, Pt. 10c, Qt. 15c, 

 2 Qts; 25c, Gal. 40c, PK. 75c, Bus. $2.75. 



y/ Thomas Laxton Extra Early Pea.— This Pea 



<rs claimed by Mr. Laxton, the noted English 

 hybridizer, to be the finest of all the Extra Early 

 Wrinkled Peas. He introduced it into the TJ. S. in 

 iqoo, and already the popular favor which it has 

 drawn around it substantiates all that Mr. Laxton 

 claims for it. PKt. 15c, Qt. 25c, 2 Qts. 50c,

Gradus, or Prosperity Peas.— $90.00 made from 

 6ne peck of Peas planted is remarkable, but that 

 is what one market gardener netted. Planted the 

 same day side by side with the earliest of the 

 Extra Early Peas this delicious, large, wrinkled 

 Pea will mature at exactly the same time. The 

 extra large, dark green pods quickly fill a bushel 

 box or basket, and readily retail around £2.50 per 

 bushel when the Extra Early varieties bring $1.50 

 per bushel. It withstands an extraordinary 

 amount of cold and wet weather, so plant it early 

 and your returns will surprise you. It matures 

 and is marketed before the Pea louse gets a chance 

 at it. Besides being so attractive, the sweet de- 

 licious flavor and excellent quality bring back a 

 customer who has once bought them. For several 

 years Prosperity Peas has been on the market, the 

 demand, however, has always been so great we 

 have been unable to reserve many for growing 

 purposes; the short crops have still further cut 

 down the supplv, so buy early before they are all 

 gone. Pt. 15c, Qt. 25c, 2 Qts. 50c, Gal. $1.00,
