CULTURE. Peas mature earliest in a light, rich soil. For general 

 crop use a rich, deep loam, or inclining to clay is best. When grown in 

 garden sow m double rows 6 to 8 inches apart; the rows 2 to 4 feet ap.<irt 

 and tall ones requirmg brush. Commence sowing the extra early vari- 

 eties as early as the ground can be worked in February or March- con- 

 tinue 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 

 earjhed up twice during the growth. The wrinkled varieties are not 

 as hardy as the small round sort, and if planted eariy should have a dry 

 soil, or they are liable to rot in the ground; they are, however, the sweet- 

 est and best flavored varieties. The dwarf 

 small gardens. 



are best suited fbr 



EXTREMELY EARLY LONQ=PODDED ALAS= 



KA PEAS.— An entirely new, vigorous, handsome, long- 

 podded, delicious flavored Alaska Pea. Bound to become ex- 

 tremely popular, for it has all the good qualities of our 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 abiindant yield- 

 er. Being an entirely new introduction, our supply of seed is 

 limited, so place your order early. Packet, loc; pt., 20c; qt., 35c; 4 qts., 

 $1.15; peck, $2.00; bush., $7.50. 



WONDERFUL EXTRA EARLY PEAS.— This pea has proven itself 

 to be a decided acquisition to the list of peas. It is as early as the 

 Alaska; bears long, well-filled pods. While not a wrinkled pea, it takes some- 

 what of the character of them. It can be planted as early as the Alaska — vines grow 

 stiff and upright. Packet, loc; pt., 20c; qt., 35c; peck, $2.50; bush., $8.00. 



EXTRA EARLY GRADUS PEAS.— The very best extra early wrinkled pea ever in- 

 troduced. It produces pods equal in size to the well-known Telephone. Quality and 

 productiveness equal to that well-known variety. The vines are of vigorous, robust 

 growth, about 25 feet high, thick stems and luxuriant foliage; it bears large, handsome pods, 

 with immense luscious peas, remaining sweet and tender for a long time after they are fit to pick. You cannot afford
