PEAS, EXTRA EARLY-continued 



Gr% A fN lie* '"^° extra early, wrinkled pea. 

 K A\ 11 U ^ The vine of this most distinct 

 \* • *^ ^^ *^ sort is like that of Ferry's First 

 and Best, except that it grows a little taller and matures 

 its pods a little later. The immense pods are as large as 

 those of the Telephone uniformly well shaped and hand- 

 some and more attractive than those of most first ear 

 lies The peas are very large, of splendid quality and 

 beautiful color which they i-etain after cooking This 

 variety is practically the same as that sold as " Prosper- 

 ity." We have taken great pains to secure true stock 

 and have it well grown, so we are sure that every one 

 who purchases our seed will be pleased with the variety. 

 Every gardener should try it. Pkt. 10c; Ft. 36c; Qt. 60c;

Improved Alpha tl:'\lrS^. 



led pea, almost as early as Amer- 

 ican Wonder. Vines about three 

 feet high, slender, mostly un- 

 branched and bearing five to ten 

 medium sized, slightly curved 

 pods, each containing fourto eight 

 green, medium sized peas which 

 are exceedingly sweet and tender. 

 We offer a very superior strain of 

 this variety and recommend Im- 

 proved Alpha as the sweetest 

 extra early sort. Pkt. 10c; Pt. 16c;

Nott's Excelsior 



The best 

 early, 

 dwarf 



pea. It combines the good quahties of 

 the American Wonder and Premium 

 Gem peas. The vines are larger and 

 more productive than American VVonder 

 and earlier than Premium Gem. The peas 

 in sweetness and quality are unsurpassed. 

 Seed wrinkled and green in color. A most desira- 

 ble sort for the market gardener and unsurpassed 

 for the home garden. Pkt. 10c; Pt. 25c; Qt. 40c;

Improved Alpha Peas. 



PEAS, SECOND EARLY 



Rlicc' F\;^rK^arinrf -^ variety maturing soon after the Gems and 

 L'll>9 L.VCI UCai lil^ continuing a long time in bearing. Vine stout, 

 about twenty inches high, bearing at the top six to ten broad pods. If 

 these are removed as they mature and the season and soil are favorable, 

 the plant will throw out branches bearing pods which will mature in suc- 

 cession, thus prolonging the season. The peas are large and wrinkled, 

 cook very quickly, are tender, of superior flavor and preferred by many 

 to any other sort. Pkt. 10c; Pt. 16c; Qt. 26c; 4 Qts. 76c; Bu. $6.00 



I, A I > AJ — .-.^— A green, wrinkled variety about 



A'Irl CS\f\ S AflVBHC^r two and a half feet high, with 



dantly produced and well filled to the ends. Considei-ed by some the best 

 of the second early sorts. This pea is used very extensively by market 

 gardeners because of its productiveness, the fine appearance of its pods 

 and quality of the peas and is popular with consumers on account of its 

 quality. It is also largely used by canners. Careful comparison shows 

 that our stock is unequaled. Pkt. 10c; Pt. 16c; Qt. 26c; 4 Qts. 76c;
