JOHNSON & STOKES' NEW RECORD EXTRA EARLY PEA 



THE EARLIEST PEA IN CULTIVATION— See photograph, opposite page 



Every claim made by us, from the records of our Trial Grounds, in first oflfering this new pea two 

 years since, has been fully substantiated by hundreds of market gardeners who planted it. It would 

 take half the number of pages of this book to publish all the testimonials thus far received. Many of 

 these we have referred to the originator, an old expert pea grower, and he writes us he now feels fully 

 repaid for the nine years' hard work devoted to its selection and development. 



Briefly stated, its important advantages are: 



It is three to five days earlier than any other, with stockier and more vigorous vines. 



The most uniform in ripening. A single picking will generally secure the entire crop. 



The heaviest cropper, and contains one to two more peas per pod than any other extra early 

 smooth white or blue pea In cultivation. 



Every progressive gardener who wants to be strictly up-to-date should, if he has not already done 

 so, give the New Record a trial. 



Height of vine, 1^ to 2 feet. Prices for 1901: Large pkt., 10c. ; pint, 30c.; qt., 50c., postpaid. If 

 by freight or express, qt., 35c.; peck, $1.75 ; bush., $6.50. 



A GRAND NEW ENGLISH PEA— The Market Master 



The Best Pea for Medium and Late Use — See photograph, opposite 



After testing for two seasons on our Trial Grounds this fine new pea from England, we were absolutely 

 certain of its decided merit in introducing it among our customers last season, and believe we have 

 the honor of being the first American seedsmen to bring this valuable novelty to this side of the Atlantic. 

 The vine is very hardy, growing vigorously to a height of about two feet, unusually prolific. Handsome 

 pods, growing uniformly to larger size than any medium early or late pea we have ever seen, and filled 

 with eight to nine and sometimes ten very large, delicious peas of the richest marrow flavor. 



We have received many letters from market gardeners who gave it a trial last season, and are sorry 

 we have not room to publish them. One writes: " I am sure Market Master is the best pea the world 

 has ever seen ; " another says: "The Market Master created a furore in our market;" still another 

 writes : " Market Master is a marvel in productiveness, melting in the mouth for sweetness." 



If you want to keep abreast with the times in gardening, you must plant the Market Master.
