 cession. They can be sown as late as the 20th of August for the last sowing, using Extra Earlies. Sow in rows 

 about 4 feet apart and 1 inch apart in the row, and 3 to 4 inches deep. 



EXTRA EARLY ALASKA.— The earliest blue 

 pea. The dark green color of the pods makes it 

 extremely desirable, as it can be carried long dis- 

 tances without losing color, which quality, com- 

 bined with its earliness and uniformity of ripening, 

 makes it a most desirable pea for market garden- 

 ers. Height two feet. Quart, 30c. Peck, $2.00. 

 Bushel, $7.50. 



LITTLE MARVEL.— As regards Little Marvel 

 peas, this variety we can recommend as being one 

 of the very best short-vine peas introduced. The 

 vines are about a foot high, very stocky and the 

 pods are large and well filled with large peas of 

 excellent quality. We consider this variety far 

 superior to American Wonder or Nott's Excelsior 

 and when they are better known they will be in 

 great demand. Quart, 35c. Peck, $2.00. Bushel, 

 $7.00. | 



NOTT'S EXCELSIOR.— One of the best early 

 Dwarf Peas. It combines the good qualities of the 

 American Wonder and Premium Gem Peas. Quart, 

 35c. Peck, $1.75. Bushel, $6.00. 



LONG-PODDED ALASKA PEAS.— New, vigor- 

 ous, handsome, long-podded, delicious flavored Alaska 

 pea. Bound to become extremely popular, for it has 

 all the good qualities of 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 abundant yielder. Pint, 15c. Quart, 30c. Peck, 

 $1.75. Bushel, $6.50. 



(For larger quantities, prices given 

 on application.) 



Extra Enrly Alaska 



BOUNTIFUL, OR AMEER.— (New).— Extra Early 

 pea. One of the best early peas for the garden. High- 

 ly recommended. Quart, 30c. Peck, $2.00. Bushel,
