Early and Second Early Wrinkled Garden Peas 
sy 494 Prosperity or Gradus 
55 days. An Early and Very Large Podded, Wrinkled Pea 
Prosperity or Gradus is a wrinkled pea, with vine growing about 30 
inches high. It requires no sticks or brush, though sticks may be used 
if preferred. The peas are freely borne, and remain in good condition for 
a number of days. The pods are of a dark green color, and measure 4 
inches or more in length, being as large as Telephone, and equally well 
filled with luscious peas—8 to 10 or more in a pod. The peas themselves 
are of first-class table quality, and retain their color and attractive ap- 
pearance after cooking. The peas are round and plump, maturing in 55 
days. It is entirely adapted to the purposes of the market gardener, and 
does equally as well in the home garden.

se 496 Thomas Laxton 
55 days. One of the Largest Podded Dwarf Vine Sorts 
It grows like Gradus, about 30 inches high. The wrinkled peas are very 
large, of fine deep green color. The pods are large, long, with square 
ends and fine color. Many market gardeners have planted the Thomas 
Laxton in preference to Gradus, to their entire satisfaction. Our opinion 
of Thomas Laxton is that it is as early as Gradus, maturing in 55 days; 
at the same time it is, if anything, more productive; peas are fully as 
large, of a richer green color. Planted side by side, it is frequently a 
hard matter to tell which is the better of the two varieties.

50 days. An Improved Type of Prosperity or Gradus but Earlier 
This new and improved type of Prosperity or Gradus Pea is slightly 
earlier than that famous variety, and is the earliest of all the large 
podded vine sorts. The vines grow about 2 feet in height and are tre- 
mendously productive, requiring no bush or stakes, of a medium green 
color, producing large medium green pods fully 4 to 5 inches long, fairly 
broad, pointed and well filled with 7 to 9 very large dark green peas of 
exceptional quality. Matures in 50 days.

& 509 Laxtonian 
55 days. Known by Some as the Dwarf Gradus or Blue Bantam 
This is the largest podded of all the early dwarf 
varieties and is a grand sort of decided merit. The 
vines are vigorous, growing about 16 inches high, and 
produce a large crop of good sized pods, averaging 
from 9 to 10 peas to the pod. The peas are of exaui- 
site flavor, maturing in 55 days. Many people who 
’ have tried Laxtonian consider it superior to any of 
the so-called tall growing later maturing sorts, and 
claim it to be the best of all early dwarf peas. Tt is 
certainly worth a trial.

% 500 Pioneer 
55 days. Giant Pods, with Large Luscious Peas 
This large dark green podded, early wrinkled pea is 
in great favor with market gardeners in all sections. 
The handsome large pods, which are well filled with 
big peas of delicious flavor, make it°a good seller on 
the market stall. The vines are extremely vigorous, 
growing only fifteen to eighteen inches high, with 
dark green foliage, and produce a wonderful crop of 
pods. Pioneer is an early wrinkled pea, bearing its 
dark green pods in 55 days, as early as the 
Prosperity or Gradus, but a much heavier cropper and 
of quality equally as good.

& 507 Potlatch or Big Dinner 
68 days. Decidedly the Best of All Large Podded 
Semi-Dwarf Peas 
Potlatch or Big Dinner has become one of our most 
popular sorts, the demand for this excellent variety 
among our market gardener friends being enormous; 
it is not only a favorite sort with them but is equally 
popular for the home garden. The vines grow 20 to 
24 inches high with unusually dark green foliage. 
Long pods of a rich dark green color, often measur- 
ing 6 inches or more in length, with 9 to 11 enormous 
peas in a pod are produced in about 68 days. The 
Srowth of vine is sturdy and pods are borne in pairs; 
it is a wonder in producttveness. See Specialty page
