EXTRA-EARLY ALASKA.— The earliest blue 

 pea. The dark green color of the pods makes it 

 extremely desirable, as it can be carried long dis- 

 tances without losing color, which quality, combined 

 with its earliness and uniformity of ripening, makes 



Extra Early Alaska. 



it a most desirable pea for market gardeners. Height 



2 feet. Pint, 20c. Quart, 35c. Peck, $2.50. Bushel.

LITTLE MARVEL.— As regards Little Marvel 



peas, this variety we can recommend as being one 

 of the very best short-vine peas introduced. The 

 vines are about a foot high, very stocky, and the 

 pods are large and well filled with large peas of 

 excellent quality. We consider this variety far 

 superior to American Wonder or Nott's Excelsior, 

 and when they are better known they will be in 

 great demand. Pint, 30c. Quart, 60c. Peck, $4.00. 

 NOTT'S EXCELSIOR.— One of thebest early

 orous, handsome, long-podded, delicious flavored 

 Alaska Pea. Bound to become extremely popular, 

 for it has all the good qualities of famous Extra- 

 Early Alaska Pea, and, in addition, it has a well- 

 filled pod almost twice as long, which will fill 

 the basket in one-half the time, and while it is 

 not a distinctly sugar pea, yet it has a much 

 sweeter flavor than the Alaska. It is an abun- 

 dant yielder. Pint, 25c. Quart, 40c. Peck. $'3.C0. 

 Bushel, $11.00. 



GRADUS, or PROSPERITY.— Probably the 

 best extra-early pea yet introduced. Only 2 or 3 

 days later than Alaska, and a wrinkled pea of ex- 

 cellent quality. Pint, 30c. Quart, 50c. Peck, 

 $3.50. Bushel" S'13.50.

 market gardeners for a general crop pea, strong 

 vines, immense pods, larse peas, heavv crooper, 

 true stock. Pint 30c. Quart. 5Cc. Peck, $3.50.
