SUTTOX»S EXCEI^SIOR PEA 



This handsome wrinkled Pea is so hardy that it may safely 

 be planted as early as the hard-seeded "Extra Earlies. " The 

 plants are dwarf, growing about 14 inches high, very stout and 

 exceedingly productive, and the quality is all that could be de- 

 sired. It makes the largest pods of any of the low-growing 

 wrinkled Peas, and matures nearly as early as Nott's Excelsior. 

 Pkt., 10 cts., by mail. By express or freight, at purchaser's 

 expense, lb., 50 cts,; 2 lbs., 90 cts. (if wanted by Parcel Post 

 add as stated on page 35); 10 lbs., $4.00. 



LITTLE MARVEL PEA 



If you have been growing American Wonder or 

 Nott's Excelsior Peas you will easily recognize the 

 superiority of this extra early wrinkled variety, as it 

 not only matures as early as either of these two well- 

 known sorts, but is much more productive and remains 

 in good condition for a longer period. The plant 

 makes a strong and healthy growth, usually fifteen 

 to eighteen inches in height, and bears the pods in 

 great abundance, many being twin-pods and all com- 

 pletely filled with deep green peas, which are very 

 tender and sweet. We consider this one of the best 

 of the dwarf wrinkled Peas. Pkt., 10 cts., by mail. 

 By express or freight, at purchaser's expense, lb., 50 

 cts.; 2 lbs., 90 cts. (if wanted by Parcel Post add as 

 stated on page 35); 10 lbs., $4.00. 



JOHN BAER TOMATO 



This variety has been offered as the earliest Tomato 

 for home and commercial use, and in our trials we 

 found it to mature about the same time as Chalk's 

 Jewel, which it resembles in size, shape and color. 

 The vines do not grow large, but are productive, bear- 

 ing the fruits in clusters and abundantly. The Toma- 

 toes are of a medium size, nearly round in shape, scarlet 

 color and of excellent flavor. On account of the large 

 yield, desirable size and shape, this variety is suited 

 both for early market and home use. Pkt., 10 cts.; 

 } oz., 30 cts.; oz., 50 cts.; J lb., $1.50. 



RUBY GIANT PEPPER 



(See Illustration on page 9.) 

 An exceptionally fine variety of the large fruiting Peppers 

 which is the result of crossing Ruby King and Chinese Giant. 

 In shape it resembles Ruby King, but is much larger and 

 broader at the bottom end, making it more desirable for stuffing. 

 The Peppers are green while in the early stage of growth, but 

 turn scarier when fully matured. The flesh is quite thick and 

 extremely mild in flavor. Pkt., 10 cts.; ^ oz., 45 cts.; oz., 80 

 cts.; I lb., $2.50. 



DREER'S EARLIEST 

 IVHITE GLOBE RADISH 



The beautiful shape and quick growth make this Radish the 

 most desirable of the white olive-shaped sorts. It may be sown 

 in the garden, or used for forcing, and in either case will pro- 

 duce Radishes of a size suitable for use in a very short time. 

 In fact we believe it to be the earliest white olive-shaped Rad- 

 ish in existence, and are quite sure that it will please all who 

 plant it. The skin is an attractive, transparent ivory-white and 

 the flesh sparkling white, very crisp, tender and juicy. Pkt., 

 10 cts.; oz., 20 cts.; J lb., 60 cts.; lb., $2.00. 



EXTRA EARLY JERSEY 

 WHITE BUSH SQUASH 



An improved strain of the old White Bush Squash, the result 

 of selections made for ^ number of years by a prominent gar- 

 dener. It grows in the bush form, and is enormously productive. 

 The Squashes mature fully ten days earlier than the old sort, and 

 are of good size. They show less ridge or scallop, being better 

 filled out, and contain a larger amount of flesh than the parent 

 variety. The Squashes cook well and the flavor is delicious. This 

 is the same type of Squash as is called "Cymling" in the south, 

 but so much improved that it should not be compared with the 

 old-time sort. Pkt. , 10 cts. ; oz. , 25 cts. ; J lb. , 70 cts. ; lb. , $2. 25. 



UELICIOUS SQUASH 



This fall and winter Squash is finer-grained and more delicious 

 than the well-known Hubbard. The color of skin is green, 

 with an occasional blue specimen; size about same as Hubbard, 

 weighing from 5 to 10 pounds. The shell is not very thick, but 

 is hard and strong; the flesh is thick and of a bright yellow color, 

 fine-grained and of splendid quality. For table use, either as a 

 fall or winter Squash, it cannot be excelled. Pkt., 10 cts ; oz., 

 20 cts.; i lb., 70 cts.; lb., $2.25.
