Three quarts of seed to 100 yards of row^. One 

 and a half to two bushels to the acre. 



CULTURE. — Sow as early as the ground can be 

 worked, and again every ten days or two weeks in 

 succession. 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 distances with- 

 out losing color, which quality, combined with its 

 earliness and uniformity of ripening, makes it a 

 most desirable pea for market gardeners. Height 

 2 feet. Pt. 25c, qt. 50c, pk. $2.25, bu. $8.50. 



Little Marvel — As regards Little Marvel peas, this 

 variety we ean recommend as being one of the very 

 best short-vine peas introduced. The vines are 

 about a foot high, very stockj^, 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 thev will be in great demand. 

 Pt. 25c, qt. 50c, pk. $3.00, bu. $11.00. 



Nott's Excelsior — One of the best earlj- dwarf 

 peas. It combines the good qualities of the Ameri- 

 can Wonder and Premium Gem Peas. Pt. 25c, 

 qt. 50c, pk. $3.00, bu. $11.00. 



Long-Podded Alaska — Xew, vigorous, handsome, 

 long-podded, delicious flavored Alaska Pea. Bound 

 to become extremeh- popular, for it has all the good 

 qualities of famous Extra Earh- Alaska Pea, and in 

 addition, it has a well-filled pod almost twice as long, 

 which will fill the basket ih 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 abun- 

 dant yielder. Pt. 25c, qt. 50c, pk. $2.25, bu. $9.00. 



Gradus, or Prosperity — Probably the best extra- 

 early pea yet introduced. Only 2 or 3 da3-s later 

 than Alaska, and a wrinkled pea of excellent qual- 

 ity. Pt. 25c, qt. 50c, pk. $3.00, bu. $11.00. 



Extra-Early Pilot — The pods and peas are nearly 

 as large as those of Gradus, and are produced three 

 days earlier. Thej' can be planted much earlier 

 than Gradus, and while not wrinkled, the peas are 

 almost equal in flavor. Three feet high. Pt. 25c, 

 qt. 50c, pk. $3.25, bu. $11.25.
