Garden Peas — Continued 



Laxtonian. This handsome new wrinkled Pea is the largest podded of 

 the dwarf varieties on our list. The beautiful dark green pods are 'similar 

 to Gradus in shape and splendid quality; are very nearly as large in size and 

 mature a little earlier. The vines are vigorous and productive, averaging IS 

 to 18 inches high, folinge dark green; pods ^hout 4 inches in length. Seed 

 light gi-een, large, wrinkled, flattened, irregular in shape. Pkt., 10 cts.; 

 pint, 30 cts.; quart, 60 cts.; peck, $400. 



Bolgiano's Extra Early Triumph. The earliest of all; uniform and produc- 

 tive. The success of our Extra Early Triumph Peas has been surprising. 

 Large truckers have found it most satisffictory. Pkt., 10 cts.; pint, 25 cts.; 

 quart, 45 cts.; peck (i5 lbs.), $2.85; bushel (60 lbs.), $11.00. 



American Wonder. This variety stands unrivaled in point of productive- 

 ness, flavor and quality, and is without exception the earliest wrinkled pea 

 in cultivation. It is of dwarf and robust habit, growing from 10 to 15 inches 

 high, and produces a profusion of good-sized and well-filled pods of finest 

 flavor. Pkt., 10 cts.; pint, 25 cts.; quart, 45 cts.; peck, $3.25; bushel, $12.00- 



Premium Gem. This variety is nearly as early as the American Wonder, 

 and the vine is decidedly larger, growing from 12 to 16 inches, and bearing an 

 immense crop of peas, which are larger and invariably filled with peas of 

 best quality. Pkt., 10 cts.; pint, 25 cts.; quart, 45 cts.; peck, $3-25; 

 bushel, $12.00. 



Extra Early Thomas Laxton. An pxtra-early wrinkled marrow of excellent 

 quality, and a valuable addition to the very early varieties. It is three feet 

 high, and somewhat more vigorous in habit than Prosperity. The pods are 

 medium to large, blunt-ended and filled to the tip with large Peas of true, rich, 

 "marrow" flavor. Its strong vine and heavy cropping character make it very 

 suitable for an early crop in the private garden. It may be used to great 

 advantage as an immediate successor to Gradus. If sown together, Thomas 

 Laxton will be in full production just as the crop of Gradus is diminishing. 

 Pkt., 10 cts.; pint, 30 cts.; quart, 60 cts.; gallon, $2.10 ; peck, $4.00 ; 

 bushel, $1500. 



Telephone. A wrinkled variety of very robust habit and a great bearer. 

 A single vine produces from 8 to 10 unusually long, well-filled pods of largest 

 size, containing 10 to 11 peas. It is very productive, of fine flavor and an 

 excellent table variety; height, about four feet. Pkt., lo cts.; pint, 25 cts.; 

 quart, 45 cts.; gallon, $1-75; peck, $3.25; bushel, $12.00- 



Improved Stratagem. The pods are of immense size and uniformly filled 

 with very large, dark green peas of the finest quality. All the good qualities 

 of the old Stratagem are highly developed, and it is superior to the stock 

 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. Pkt., 10 cts.; pint, 30 cts.; quart, 60 cts.; peck, $4-00; bushel, $1500- 



Juno (Dwarf Champion). For rugged, healthy vines, freedom from "sports," 

 and reliability in cropping, Juno stands alone among the main-crop sorts. The 

 foliage is a shade darker than any we grow. The plant is ly^ feet high, 

 heavily branched; so robust that it needs but little support, and so vigorous TELEPHU 



that it withstands the heat of the American summer perfectly. It is a sure 

 and heavy cropper. The pods are medium in size, but remarkably well filled and of
