NOTICE.— In ordering Peas to be sent by mail, please add 8 cts. per pint to pay postage. 



The dwarf varieties should be liberally manured: the tall sorts will run too much to vine if heavily manured, it 

 being 1 better to depend on the richness of the land that was previously in good condition. Plant the dwarf in rows 

 two feet apart; those varieties attaining 1 the height of from two to three feet, in rows three feet apart, and the rows of 

 the tallest sort four feet apart. Bush the tall kind when six inches high, or poles set every six or eight feet, with 

 twine fastened to them about four inches apart, answer finely. 



FIRST EARLY PEAS. 



This is the eai'liest of all, and the most profitable early market Pea, because of its early maturity, uniformity of 

 growth and ripening, and its productiveness. It ripens up so evenly as only to require about two pickings to secure 

 the crop. It is grown from selected stock, under our own supervision, and the greatest care is exercised to keep it up 

 to the highest standard ojE quality. It is a grea^ favorite with jthe Truckers, and is largely used by private families. 



Our sales of this sort increase annually.
