 Early Morn, {^ee ait.) An 

 English variety of the Gradus type, 

 with many desirable qualities. In 

 our trial grounds it matured only a 

 few days later than Gradus and bore 

 large handsome pods in profusion. 

 The peas are large, closely packed in 

 the pod and the flavor is sweet and 

 delicious. Those who know the good 

 qualities of Gradus will not be disap- 

 pointed in their trial of this new 

 variety. Height 3 ft. Qt., 45 cts.; 4 

 qts., $1.50; peck, S2.80; bu., $1 i.:o. 



Tlie "Thomas Laxtou." A 



few years ago we received a small 

 sample of this pea for trial from Eng- 

 land, from the originator, Mr. Thomas 

 Laxton. We were very much pleased 

 with the results, and found it to be 

 extremely early, ripening fully as 

 early as the well known ' ' Gradus ' ' 

 and producing pods and peas fully as 

 large. The plant is a very hardy 

 and strong grower, producing the ex- 

 tra large sized pods in abundance. 

 The quality is delicious and cannot 

 be surpassed by any other variety. 

 The " Thomas Laxton " will msture 

 fully as early as any of the extra early 

 smooth peas, and being a wrinkled 

 sort is much sweeter ; height 3 ft. 

 Qt.,45 cts.; 4 qts., ^1.50; peck, 

 ^2.80; bu , ?II.20.

Dreer's Eureka Extra Early. {See cut.) One 

 of the earliest and most prolific extra early varieties, which 

 has given the best results wherever grown, and is a stand- 

 ard for earlmess and fine quality. It is an extremely even 

 cropper, and can be gathered clean in two pickings. For 

 a late fall crop it has few equals ; height 20 inches. Qt., 

 25 cts.. 4 qts., 80 cts. ; peck, ^1.30; bu., ;?5.20. 



Dreer's Extra Early Electric. A variety of the 

 green-seeded Alaska type, but a great improvement, being 

 much earlier than the Alaska and bearing larger pods. 

 The vines grow from 2^^ to 3 feet high, and are literally 

 loaded down with pods, which are crowded with the large 

 peas, closely shouldered in pod. It is very uniform in 

 growth, and usually produces pods containing seven or 

 eight peas. The quality is excellent, remaining tender 

 until fully matured. Qt., 25 cts.; 4 qts, 80 cts.; peck,
