NEW ElVElRBEARING 



GRANT'S FAVORITE 



Tliis new variety of my own introduction is unquestion- 

 ably tile finest medium and late Pea ever offeroil, coming 

 into use just after the early varieties are through bearing. 

 This trait alone makes it an exceptionally valuable sort. It 

 i.s a luxuriant grower, growing from three to four feet high, 

 is an enormous yielder, completely outyielding all other ^va- 

 rieties. 



IT IS A GRAND GOOD LATE PEA 



The pods are of good size, and always well filled with 

 exceptionally sweet and highly flavored Peas. It is nearly 

 an upright grower, but will do better if staked or planted 

 along a fence. It will please you, either for family, market 

 garden or shipping purposes. My original seed was secured 

 from an old friend of General Grant's, at Galena, 111., who 

 had received it from General Grant. I control the entire 

 supply of tliis variety. Pkt. 7c.; * pt. 120.; pt. 20c.; 

 qt. 36c. 



NEW EVERBEARING 



The great continuous, everbearing variety, which gives 

 it special value for late Summer and Autumn use. Stout 

 vines growing eighteen inches or more high, bearing at the 

 top large quantities of broad pods containing six to eight 

 large wrinkled Peas, half an inch or more in diameter. Qual- 

 ity unsurpassed. If pods are picked as they mature, and if 

 the season and soil are favorable, the plant will throw out 

 from (he axil of each leaf branches bearing pods which will 

 mature in succession, thus prolonging the season. The Peas 

 cook quickly, are tender, of superior flavor, and preferred by 

 many to any other sort. Try it. Pkt. 7C.; ^ pt. 12o.; pt. 

 20c.; qt. 35c. 



BUCKBEE'S IMPROVED STRATAGEM 



One of the best r' the large-podded sorts. The pods are of immense size, and uniformly filled withVery large 

 dark c-een peas c5 :. finest quality. All the good qualities of the old Stratagem are highly developed in my 

 Improved, and vastly superior to the stocks now generally sold as Stratagem. Vine medium height, but very 

 stocky, with very broad, light green leaves, and bearing an abundance of large, handsome pods. The best Pea 

 now on the market for those who want large, showy pods and Peas without any sacrifice in quality. One of the 

 very boat varietiea for market gardeners. Pkt. 6c. ; i pt. 12c. ; pt. 20c. ; qt. 35c. 



THOMAS LAXTON 



A comparatively new variety of large-podded Pea. The plant is a very hardy and strong grower, producing 

 extra large size pods in abundance. The quality is delicious, and cannot be surpassed by any other variety. 

 The "Thomas Laxton" will mature nearly as early as any of the extra early smooth Peas, and being a wrinkled 

 sort is much sweeter. Pkt. 8o. ; H pt. 16c.; pt. 26o. ; Qt. 60o. 



DWARF TELEPHONE 



This is a dwarf variety, bearing large, handsome pods like Telephone, but without long vines, and grows more dwarf than Stratagem. It is 

 of dwarf, stocky habit, healthy, vigorous growth, and very productive. In season, medium, from 5 to 7 days earlier than 

 Stratagem. The pods are long, frequently measuring 5 inches in length, broad, rounded or curved at the end, remarkably 

 well filled; color pale-green, thick, and of good lasting quality. Pkt. 7o.; H pt. ISc; pt. 26o. ; at, 40o. 



NEW TELEPHONE 



This Pea has proved to be a valuable acquisition. Vines vigorous, growing about four feet high, with large coarse leaves 

 Pods very large, filled with immense Peas, which are tender, sweet and of excellent flavor. Notwithstanding the large amount 

 of inferior and spurious stock which has been sold, no Pea of recent introduction has gained more rapidly in popularity than 

 this, thus showing that is has Sterling merit Which gardeners appreciate. The stock I offer is prolific and has beer 

 carefully selected. Pkt. 6c. ; i pt. 10c. ; pt. 16®. ; qt. 30c. 



WILLIAM HURST 



The Peas are ready «or the table June 28th, as eariy as American Wonder, while the vines are much more productive 

 and it comes very near to being a "one-picking" variety. Of handsome dwarf growth, the vines are eight to ten inches high 

 foliage of dark green color; haulms are close-jointed and very prolific. The Pods are well filled with large Peas, each con- 

 taining BIX to eight, so closely packed that the Peas are flattened against each other. Quahty the very best Pkt 6c •

JUNO 



A dwarf main crop, wrinkled variety Pea, enormously productive, excellent flavor. We have now had several vears' 

 -T'S^ -1 • ^"'^ r'^'J ^^^'^ it more highly. It is a main crop variety with vigorous constitution 



which shows Itself in the strong, handsome, branching plant. It is two feet in height, requiring Uttle or no brushing It 

 produces an abundance of the finest Peas possible, the vines being actually laden with pods, which remain tender and retain 

 their flavor for a long time. Pkt. 6c. ; i pt. 12c. ; pt. 20c. ; qt. 35c. remain renaer ana retain
