PEAS — Extra Early Varieties 



583. Extremely Early Long-Podded Alaska. An 



entirely new, vigorous, handsome, long-podded, delicious 

 flavored Alaska pea. Bound to become extremely popular, 

 for it has all the good qualities 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 dis- 

 tinctly sugar pea, yet it has a much sweeter flavor than the 

 Alaska. It is abundant vielder. Pkt. 10 cts.; pt. 40 cts.; qt.

 riety. The vines are
