Gradus, or Prosperity. (See cut. ) This splendid variety 

 combines the finest quality with extreme earliness, and is also 

 very productive. It is hardy and can be planted fully as early 

 as the smooth Peas. Grows vigorous and healthy, vines about 



3 feet in height, bearing pods fully as large as Telephone, 

 and which are well filled with beautiful light, green Peas, which 

 color they retain after being cooked. The quality and flavor 

 are delicious, and a valuable feature with the "Gradus" is 

 that the Peas remain tender and sweet for a long time after 

 having been picked from the vines. By express or freight, at 

 purchaser's expense, pt., 25 cts.; qt., 40 cts. (if by Parcel 

 Post add as noted at top of page); 4 qts., $1.50; peck, $2.50. 



Thomas Laxton. An early variety of large- podded Pea. 

 The plant is a very hardy and strong grower, producing extra 

 large size pods in abundance, and the quality is delicious. This 

 variety will mature asearlyas many of the smooth extra early 

 Peas; height 3 feet. By express or freight, at purchaser's ex- 

 pense, pt.,25cts.; qt., 40 cts. (if by Parcel Post add as 

 noted at top of page); 4 qts., $1.50; peck, $2.50. 



Early Morn. An English variety of the Gradus type, matur- 

 ing only a few days later. It is hardy and the vines grow 3 

 feet in height, strong and healthy, bearing the large hand- 

 some pods in great abundance. The Peas are large, closely 

 packed in the pods and are of a very sweet flavor. By express 

 or freight, at purchaser's expense, pt., 25 cts.; qt, 40 cts. (if 

 by Parcel Post, add as noted at topof page); 4 qts., $1.50; 

 peck, $2.50. 



Laxtonian. This variety of extra early Pea may be classed as 

 a Dwarf Gradus, which variety it resembles, except that it 

 only grows about 18 inches high. The vines make a vigorous 

 growth, which enables them to withstand weather conditions 

 unsuited to some of the large-podded varieties, and the pods 

 are well filled with large Peas, which have an exquisite flavor. 

 By express or freight, at purchaser's expense, pt., 25 cts.; 

 qt., 40 cts. (if by Parcel Post, add as noted at topof page); 



4 qts., $1.50; peck, $2.50. 



Buttercup. Vines make a rapid growth to about 2 feet in 

 height, and are of a medium green color, very healthy, and 

 produce an astonishingly large crop of pods, ready for use in 

 about sixty-five days from time of planting. The pods are 

 long, rounded or curved at the end, and well filled with large 

 peas, which are very sweet and tender. This variety is a great 

 cropper, a very important feature, which, combined with ex- 

 cellent flavor, will surely make "Buttercup" a very popular 

 variety. By express or freight, at purchaser's expense, pt., 

 25 cts.; qt., 40 cts. (if by Parcel Post, add as noted at topof 

 page); 4 qts., $1.50; peck, $2.50. 



Little Marvel. For the early crop, this variety is better than 

 American Wonder or Nott's Excelsior, as it matures earlier 

 and the pods contain more peas. It is dwarf, about 15 inches 

 high, plants are very productive, bearing many twin pods, 

 which are dark green. By express or freight, at purchaser's 

 expense, pt. 20 cts.; qt., 35 cts. (if by Parcel Post add as 

 noted at top of page); 4 qts., $1.25; peck, $2.25. 



American Wonder. A very fine, extra early wrinkled vari- 

 ety, well suited for the private garden. It is productive and 

 very sweet; height 1 foot. By express or freight, at purchaser's 

 expense, pt., 20 cts.; qt., 35 cts. (if by Parcel Post, add as 

 noted at top of page); 4 qts., $1.10; peck, $2.00. 



Nott's Excelsior. An improvement on American Wonder, 

 being fully as early and the pods are decidedly larger; height 

 14 inches. By express or freight, at purchaser's expense, 

 pt., 20 cts.; qt., 35 cts. (if by Parcel Post, add as noted at 

 top of page); 4 qts., $1.10; peck, $2.00. 



Sutton's Excelsior. This handsome wrinkled Pea is so hardy 

 that it may safely be planted as early as the haid-seeded"Extra 

 Earlies." The plants are dwarf, abouc 14 inches high, very 

 stout, exceedingly productive, and the quality is all that could 

 be desired. The pods are quite large for so dwarf a variety 

 and always well filled. By express or freight, at purchaser's 

 expense, pt. , 20 cts. ; qt, 35 cts. (if by Parcel Post, add as 

 noted at top of page); 4 qts., $1.25; peck, $2.25.
