PEAS, SECOND EARLY 



jyicLcan'a Hdvancer 



A green, wrinkled variety about two and a half feet high, with 

 broad, long pods which are abundantly produced and well filled to 

 the ends. Considered by some the best of the second early sorts 

 This pea is used verj^ extensively by market gardeners because of 

 its productiveness, the fine appearance of its pods, and is popular 

 with consumers on accouyt of its quality. It is also largely used 

 by canners. Careful comparison shows that our stock is unsur- 

 passed. Pkt. 10c; Pt. 15c; Qt. 25c; 4 (^ts. 75c; Bushel $4,00 



Tho Arlmiral Vines vigorous, about four feet high, com- 

 1 lie MUiSlliai paracively slender, little branched Pods 

 usuall}^ borne in pairs and in great abundance; they are 

 about two and one-half inches long, curved, bright 

 green, crowded with six to nine peas of the very best 

 quality and color. We know of no pea which remains 

 palatable longer after it becomes large enough to 

 use. Seed much wrinkled, of medium size, 

 cream color. Tiiis variety ripens about with 

 Telephone. Owing to its great vigor, pro- 

 ductiveness, fine color, quality and suitable 

 size of the green peas, it is admirably adapted 

 for canners'' use. Pkt.lOc; Pt.l5c; Qt.25c;

This fine, wrinkled pea has proven to be a 

 valuable acquisition. Notwithstanding the 

 large amount of inferior and spurious stock 

 which has been sold, no pea of recent intro- 

 duction has gained more rapidly in popu- 

 la,rity than this, tlius sliowing that it lias 

 sterling merit which gardeners appreciate. 

 "Vines vigorous, growing about four feet 

 high, with large, coarse, light colored leaves 

 and producing an abundance of very large 

 pods filled with immense peas which are 

 tender, sweet and of excellent flavor. It 

 comes into use soon after the Premium Gem 

 and is oue of the best sorts for either home 

 or market. The stock we offer is prolific, 

 and has been carefully selected. Pkt. 10c;

Stronger growing and hardier vine with darker foliage 

 and pods than the Telephone; peas very large and ot 

 dark green color, seed almost smooth. A splendid 

 sort for the market garden; will give good returns 

 even under conditions that would cause most varieties 

 to fail. Pkt. 10c; Pt. 15c; Qt. 25c; 4 Qts. 75c;

Vine stout, .about two ; 



one-half feet high, bearing 

 at the top six to ten bi'oad pods. If these are picked 

 as they mature and the season and soil are favorable, 

 the piant will throw out branches bearing pods which 

 will mature in succession, thus prolonging the season. 

 The peas are very large and wrinkled, cook very quickly, 

 are tender, of superior flavor and perferred bv many 

 to any other sort. Pkt. 10c; Pt. 15c; Qt. 25c; 4 Qts. 75c;

 but when the seed is as well grown and selected as that we 

 offer, we consider the variety equal in quality to any in 

 cultivation, and one of the best of its season, either for the

 lish varieties of peas have been so wanting in uniformity 

 and evenness of type as to disgust American planters, but 

 by constant effoit we have developed a stock of this, tlie 

 best variety of that class, which comes true, and we do 

 not hesitate to pronounce it one of the best of- the large 

 podded sorts. The pods are of largest size and uniformly 

 filled with very large, dark green peas of the finest 

 qualitv. One of the very best wrinkled varieties for 

 market gardeners. Pkt. 10c; Pt. 20c; Qt. 30c;
