SECOND-EARLY PEAS 



772 



New Harvester 



In the two years this has been on the market it has gained a reputation which few new sorts attain in equal time. Harvester will ma- 

 ture about the time Little Marvel and Sutton's Excelsior are over. The vines will grow about 20 inches tall, and produce beautiful dark 

 green pods, 4 to 5 inches in length. The features of this Pea are the size of pod, the quality, the productiveness and ability to withstand 

 drought. This latter point was especially noticeable last season in our own section of the country during the long dry spell. Its flavor and 

 attractive appearance have made it an extremely popular variety for late sowing in the home garden. Pkt. 15 cts., pt. 30 cts. (by mail 40 

 cts.), qt. 50 cts. (by mail 65 cts.), y 2 pk. $1.65, pk. $3, bus. $10. 



770 



Sutton's Excelsior (S. S. Midseason) 



We have adopted Sutton's Excelsior as a Stokes' Standard, because it is of such delicious quality and such an even, regular yielder of 

 the finest-quality Peas. It is a most vigorous grower, and the pods are 2% to 3 inches in length, well filled out to the tip. Vines grow 

 about 14 to 16 inches in height. Pkt. 10 cts., pt. 20 cts. (by mail 30 cts.), qt. 35 cts. (by mail 50 cts.), y 2 pk. $1.10, pk. $2, bus. $7.50. 



775 



Improved Stratagem, or Potlatch 



This is a dwarf, late variety of wrinkled Pea of highest quality. The pods are long, very dark green, filled with dark green Peas of delicious 

 flavor. Certain seedsmen have listed this as the "Big-Dinner Pea." The vines are of strong growth, usually 18 inches in height. Pkt. 10 cts., 

 pt. 20 cts. (by mail 30 cts.), qt. 35 cts. (by mail 50 cts.), i/ 2 pk. $1.10, pk. $2, bus. $7.50. 



778 



LATE VARIETIES 



Long Island Mammoth 



This is the great Pea for the late Philadelphia markets. It has strong, healthy vines, 

 with pods about 4^ inches long. It seems to have the quality of resisting dry weather 

 better than many other sorts, and by the time it matures the usual midseason glut of 

 Peas is over. We generally dispose of over two hundred bushels of this variety to our 

 market-gardening friends, with the result of 15,000 baskets of Long Island Mammoth 

 Peas, which are sold in Philadelphia markets, from our seeds alone. Pkt. 10 cts., pt. 

 20 cts. (by mail 30 cts.), qt. 35 cts. (by mail 50 cts.), >/ 2 pk. $1.10, pk. $2, bus. $7.50. 



780 



Telephone (s. S. Late) 



This is a tall-growing, late sort, producing very handsome pods, nearly 5 inches 

 in length by % inch broad, containing seven to nine very large Peas of the finest flavor. 

 The vines grow from 4 to 5 feet high. Pkt. 10 cts., pt. 20 cts. (by mail 30 cts.), qt. 35 cts. 

 (by mail 50 cts.), y 2 pk. $1. 25, pk. $2.25, bus. $8. 



782 Carter's Daisy (Dwarf Telephone) 



The pods average 5 inches in length, with seven to nine large Peas of light green, 

 which are deliciously tender and sweet. It is not, however, a reliable yielder, but the 

 quality is superfine. We do not recommend it as a market sort. Pkt. 10 cts., pt. 20 cts. 

 (by mail 30 cts.), qt. 35 cts. (by mail 50 cts.), y 2 pk. $1.25, pk. $2.25, bus. $8. 



790 Dwarf White Marrowfat 



This is one of the very oldest sorts, strong-growing, popular, growing 4 to 5 inches 

 in height, and producing a large crop of pods. Being a hard, round variety, it is not so 

 sweet as some, but many of our customers like the marrowfat flavor. Pkt. 10 cts., 

 pt. 20 cts. (by mail 30 cts.), qt. 30 cts. (by mail 45 cts.), V 2 pk. $1, pk. $1.75, bus. $6. 



795 Mammoth-Podded Prolific Sugar 



This is an edible-podded sort, and is very largely used in some sections. The pods 

 are gathered, broken and cooked like string beans when the Peas start to develop in the 

 pod. Cook in the same way as you would string beans. Pkt. 15 cts., pt. 35 cts. (by 

 mail 45 cts.), qt. 60 cts. (by mail 75 cts.), Vipk. $2, pk. $3.50, bus. $13.
