 CULTURE,— Peas mature earliest in a light, rich soil; for general crop, a rich deep loam, or inclining to 

 clay is best. Sow in double rows 6 to 8 inches apart, the rows 2 to 4 feet apart, the tall ones requiring brush. 

 Commence sowing the extra early varieties as early as the ground can be worked in February or March; con- 

 tinue for a succession every two weeks until June, then discontinuing until the middle of August, when a 

 good crop may be secured by sowing the extra early and early sorts for fall use. They should be kept clean 

 and earthed up twice during the growth. The wrinkled varieties are not as hardy as the small round sorts, 

 and if planted early should have dry soil, or they are liable to rot in the ground; they are, however, the 

 sweetest and best flavored varieties. The dwarf varieties are best suited for small gardens or for forcing, 

 planted In rows 1 foot apart.

FIRST-IN-MARKET PEAS 



A Grand Extra-Early Pea — Largest Podded of All Extra 



-Earlies None of the numerous Extra-Earlies compare with 

 First-in-Market, in length o£ pod, number of peas in 

 a pod, or number of pods to the vine; many single plants yield 

 forty to fifty developed peas as the result of one seed sown. 

 The average yield is sometimes fifty per cent larger crop than 

 with any other strain. The quality is the very best, one of the 

 sweetest and finest flavored of the earliest smooth varieties. 

 Vines grow about thirty inches in height, and are a perfect mass 

 of well-filled pods, which can be gathered at two pickings. We 

 know this sort is the most satisfactory Extra-Early Pea that 

 can be sown; either by the market-gardener, canner, or in the 

 kitchen garden. ^ pt., lOc; pt., 15c.; qt., 25c.; Yz pk., 75c.; pk.,

DrrkcnoriK; c\r Ttrarliic This Pea is a most marked advance 

 KrOSperiiy or UraaUS improvement in wrinkled Peas It 



is remarkable for the size and fullness of its pods, yielding an 

 abundant supply of Ir.rge wrinkled peas, which are of most deli- 

 cious flavor. The vines grow about two feet high, have heavy 

 stems, stand upright, and do not require staking. The peas re- 

 main edible, tender and sweet for some time after they reach 

 maturity. Pt., 15c.; qt., 30c.; gal., $1.15; peck, $2.00; bushel, $8.06. 



TU/MYtac I av^rin The Splendid new English variety closely re- 

 I nomas Laxion se^ibieg Gradus in^ habit and rapidity of 

 growth, earliness and luxuriance of foliage. It is, however, 

 even more productive than the Gradus, and has proved with 

 me to be a sure cropper. The pods are large, but a little 

 shorter than Gradus, and instead of being rounded at the point 

 are square or blunt, being even better filled than the Gradus.
