Cnlttre. Teas .-r.^iure cirl.est in a hght, rich soil. For general crop use a rich, deep 

 loam or inclining to clay is best. When grown in garden sow in double rows 6 to 8 

 inches apart; the rows 2 to 4 feet apart. Commence sowing the extra early varieties as 

 early as the ground can be worked in February or March; continue for a succession 

 every two weeks until June, then discontinue until the middle of August, when a good 

 crop may be secured by sowing the extra early and early sorts for fall use. They 

 should be kept clean and earthed up twice during the growth. The wrinkled varieties 

 are not as hardy as the small, round sort, and if planted early should have a dry soil, 

 or they are liable to rot in the ground. They are, however, the sweetest and best 

 flavored varieties. The dwarf varieties are best suited for small gardens. 



The Earliest Springtime Pea 



This selected stock is by all odds the earliest Uirge podded pea on the 

 market. It is a wonder. The pods are from 4 to 4!/2 inches long, and broad 

 like the Gradus. The seeds are what is known as the round seeded variety. 

 Because of the robust, hardy nature of the pea, it can be planted at the same 

 time as the Alaska or other very early sort; but in appearance there are none 

 that can compare with it of the early varieties. The vines are vigorous in 

 growth, and grow to the height of about 3 feet, and the pods are Ixjrne in 

 pairs. The crop in quality and quantity will plea.se everyone who pl.mts it. 

 Pkt., 10 cts.; pint, 20 cts.; quart, 40 cts.; gallon, $1.75; peck, $3 OO; 

 bushel, $11.00. 



Extremely Early Long-Podded Alaska. An entirely new, vigorous, handsome, 

 long-podded, delicious flavored Alaska Pea. Bound to become extremely pop- 

 ular, for it ha^ all the good qu.Tlities of our Famous Extra Early Alaska Pea, 

 and in addition it has a well-filled long pod, which will fill the basket quickly, 

 and while it is not a distinctly sugar pea, yet it has a much sweeter flavor 

 than the Alaska. It is an abundant yielder. Pkt., 10 cts.; pint (l lb.), 

 25 cts.; quart (2 lbs.), 50 cts.; 4 quarts (7J4 lbs), $1-75; peck (15 lbs.), 

 $3.25; bushel (60 lbs.), $1200. 



Wonderful Extra Early. This pea has proven itself to be a decided acqui- 

 sition to the list of peas. It is as early as the Alaska; bears long, well-filled 

 pods. While not a wrinkled pea, it takes somewhat of the character of them. 

 It can be planted as early as the Alaska — vines grow stiff and upright. 

 Pkt., 10 cts.; pint (l lb.),' 25 cts.; quart (2 lbs.), 50 cts.; peck (is lbs.), 



$3.25; bushel (60 lbs.), $12-00. 



Extra Early Gradus. The very best extra early 

 wrinkled pea ever introduced. It produces pods equal 

 in size to the well-knowTi Telephone. Quality and 

 productiveness equal to that well-known variety. The 

 vines are of vigorous, robust growth, about 2^ feet 

 high, thick stems and luxuriant foliage; it bears large, 

 handsome pods, with immense luscious peas, remain- 

 ing sweet and tender for a long time after they are 

 fit to pick. Pkt., 10 cts.; pint, 30 cts.; quart, 

 60 cts.; gallon, $2.10; peck, $4.00; bushel, $15.00. 



EARLIEST SPRINGTIME PEA. 



Extra Early Alaska. The earlie-st of all smooth 

 green peas, having the best color when shelled and 

 the best quality when cooked. The dark green color 

 of the pods make it extremely desirable, as it can be 

 carried long distances without losing its color, which 

 quality, combined with its earliness and uniformity 

 of ripening, make it one of the best extra early peas 

 for truckers and market gardeners. Pkt., 10 cts.; 

 pint (1 lb.), 25 cts.; quart (2 lbs.), 40 cts.; peck 

 (15 lbs.), $2.50; bushel (60 lbs.), $9.50.
