Thomas Laxton Pea 
A Favorite With Many Commercial Gardeners. 
Vegetable Seeds—81 



































This new pea was originated by crossing Gra- 
dus with a very early seedling. It is claimed to 
be earlier, hardier in constitution, of better color, 
and more prolific than Gradus or Prosperity. It 
grows like Gradus, about 3 feet high. The wrink- 
led green peas are very large, and uniformly well 
filled. The pods are large, long, with square ends 
fine color and of unsurpassed quality. Many 
market gardeners have planted the Thomas 
Laxton ip preference to Gradus, to their entire 
Satisfaction. My opinion of Thomas Laxton is 
that it is not as early as Gradus by three or four 
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, hence, both are very popular with 
up-to-date market gardeners. Packet, 10 cts.; 
pint, 35 cts.; quart, 60 cts., postpaid. By 
express or freight, not prepaid, quart, 45 
cts.; 4 qts., $1.50; peck, $2.75; bushel, $10.00. 
DWARF TELEPHONE.—Dwarf Telephone 
is the famous old Telephone without its long 
vines. It is of healthy, stocky growth, and very 
productive. The pods frequently measure 5 inches 
in length and are broad, straight and remarkably 
well filled, often containing nine or ten peas. Pod 
is pale green, and it is thick, plump and well 
adapted to marketing. Pkt., 10c.; pt., 30c.; qt., 
50c.; postpaid. By ex. or freight, not prepaid, 
qt., 35c,; 4 qts., $1.25; pk., $2.25; bu., $8.00.

good quality and flavor. 
Its season is 

late to very late, and it is especially ad- 
apted to Summer and autumn cropping. 
It has a remarkable and valuable branch- 
ing habit. It will do well without sticks or 
brush. Repeated pickings may be made, 
for the vine continues to produce blos- 
soms and successional crops of pods in its 
effort to ripen its seeds. Itis thus a con- 
tinuous bearer through a long season.

Height, 24 inches; no sticks. It is a 
profitable sort for market gardeners, as a 
Single plant has been known to produce

quickly picked. This variety is said to 
have yielded more shelled peas to the acre 
than any other American sort.
