Laxtonian 



Kuowii by Some as The D^irarf 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, grow- 

 ing 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 

 exquisite 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, It is certainly worth a trial.

500 New Pioneer

 favor with market gardeners in all sections. The hand- 

 some 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, grow- 

 ing 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 60 days, a few days later than Prosperity

 equally as good.

Prosperity or Gradus 



The Earliest, Largest 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 Tele- 

 phone, and equally well filled with luscious peas — 8 to 10 or more in a pod. The peas 

 themselves are of first-flass table quality, and retain their color and attractive 

 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 well 

 in the home garden.

Thomas Laxton 



GRADUS 



The Rival of the Famons Prosperity or Gradus, -^vlth Giant Pods 



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 52 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. 



Packet, 10 cents; half pound, 25 cents; ponnd, 45 cents, postpaid. 



Not prepaid, pound, 30 cents; 10 pounds or over at 25 cents per pound; 



100 poands, $23.00.
