PEAS, Second Early 



McLean's 

 Advancer 



A green ^vrinkled variety about 

 two and a half to three feet high, 

 with broad, long pods which are 

 abundantly produced and well 

 filled to the ends. Considered by 

 some the best of the second early 

 sorts. TMs pea is used very extensively by market gar- 

 deners because of its productiveness, the fine appear- 

 ance of its pods, and is popular with consumers 

 on account of its quality. It is also largely used by 

 canners. By careful selection we have developed a strain 

 showing marked improvements in vigor of plant, size of 

 pod and productiveness. Comparisons show that our 

 stocks are imsurpassed in these respects. Pkt. 10c;

YorW^fllfP HpIT4 ^mes stout, about two and 

 I Ul IVMlirC 1 lerU o^e half feet high, bearing at 

 the top a number of broad pods filled with large peas that 

 remain a long time in condition for use. and which never 

 become as hard as most sorts. The peas are of fine qual- 

 ity, and will be preferred to any other bv those who hke a 

 rich, marrow-hke pea. Seed large, wrinkled and dattened.

If Peas are wanted by mail or express, prepaid, add 10 cents per pint, 15 cents per quart 



for charges. 



Tine stout, about two 

 _ and one half feet high, 

 bearing at the top six to ten broad pods. If these are 

 picked as they matiu-e and the season and soil are favor- 

 able, the plant will throu- out branches bearing pods 

 which -^^ill mature in succession, thus prolonging the sea- 

 son. The peas are very large 

 and wrinkled, cook very 

 quickly, are tender, of svi- 

 perior flavor and preferred 

 by many to anv other sort.

The Admiral Jgf/. 



ous. about four feet high, 

 comparatively slender, httle 

 branched. Pods usually 

 borne in pairs and in great 

 abundance: thej- are about 

 two and one-half inches 

 long, curved, bright green, 

 crowded with- six to nine 

 peas of the very best quality 

 and color. We know of no 



Eea which remains palata- 

 le longer after it becomes 

 large enough to use. Seed 

 much wrinkled of medium 

 size, cream color. This var- 

 iety ripens about with Tele- 

 phone. Owing to its great 

 vigor, productiveness, fine 

 color, quality and suitable 

 size of the green peas, it is 

 admirably adapted for can- 

 cers" use.' Pkt. 10c: Pt. 20c;

Telephone 



The Telephone has become 

 the leading pea with market 

 gardeners whose trade ap- 

 preciates fine appearance 

 and high quahty. ^ ines 

 vigorous, growing about 

 fom' feet high, with large, 

 coarse, light colored leaves 

 and producing an abimd- 

 ance of very large pods 

 filled with immense peas 

 which are tender, sweet, 

 and of excellent flavor. It 

 comes into use soon after 

 the Premium Gem and is 

 one of the best sorts for 

 either home or market. 

 Notwithstanding the large 

 amount of inferior and 

 spurious stock which has 

 been sold, no pea has at- 

 tained greater popularity 

 than this, thus showing that 

 it has sterling merit. The 

 stock we offer has been 

 carefuUy selected and is 

 very prolific. {See cut page

and hardier vine with dark-

 the Telephone: peas very 

 large and of dark green col-

 splendid sort for the mar-
