GRADUS 



\ 



* 494 Prosperity or Gradus 



52 days. The Karllest, I>argest Podded, AVrliifcled Pea 



Prosperity or Gradus is a wrinkled pea, with vine growing about 30 inches high. Fl 

 requires no sticks or brush, though sticks may be used if preferred. The peas in 

 freely borne, and remain In good condition for a number of days. The pods an <>I 

 a dark green color, and measure 4 Inches or more in length, being as large as Ti li - 

 phone, and equally well filled with luscious peas — 8 to 10 or more In a pod. The pi i^ 

 themselves are of flrst-olass table quality, and retain their color and attract im 

 appearance after cooking. The peas are round and plump, maturing in 52 days. It 

 is entirely adapted to the purposes of the market gardener, and does equally as wlII 

 in the home garden.

 5 pounds, $1.85, postpaid. 



Not prepaid, 5 pounds or over at 27 cents per pound; 100 pounds, $22.0U. 



* ^'^^ Thomas Laxton 



52 days. The Rival of the Famous Prosperity or Gradus, vrlth Giant Pods 



It grows like Gradus, about oO inches high. The wrinkled peas are very large, of ilm 

 deep green color. The pods are large, long, with square ends and finecolor. M m 

 market gardeners have planted the Thomas Laxton In preference to Gradus, to tin n 

 entire satisfaction. Our opinion of Thomas Laxton is that it is as early as Gra<iN 

 maturing in 52 days; at the same time it is, If anything, more productive; peas m 

 fully as large, of a richer green color. Planted side by side, it is frequently a h iiil 

 matter to tell which is the better of the two varieties. 



Packet, 10 cents; half pound, 25 cents; pound, 45 cents; 

 5 pounds, $2.00, postpaid. 



Not prepaid, 5 pounds or over at 30 cents per pound; 100 pounds, $24.0O.

* ^^'^ Laxtonian 



&5 days. Known by Some as The Dwarf Gradus or Blue Bantam 



This is the largest poddedof all the early dwarf varieties and is a grand sort of de< id 

 ed merit. The vines are vigorous, growing about 16 inches high, and produce a la.f-' 

 crop of good sized pods, aveiagiug from 9 to 10 peas to the pod. The peas are of i \- 

 quisite flavor, maturing in 55days. Many people who have tried Laxtonian consuli i 

 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. It is certainly worth a trial.

5 pounds, $2.10, postpaid. 



Not prepaid, 5 pounds or over at 32 cents per pound; 100 pounds, $26.00.
