 mitted to be one of the best late peas grown. Of 

 delicious flavor and a very profuse bearer. Desir- 

 able for home use, and especially recommended 

 for market gardeners and for the home market.

 to the Marrowfat peas. Packet, 5c.; qt., 20c.;

IMPEOVED STEATAGEM PEAS. A favorite

 ous and covered with immense pods, many of 

 which measure nearly five and one-half inches in 

 length, and containing as high as ten large, su- 

 perb-flavored, wrinkled peas. From the Rural 

 New Yorker — "A remarkable variety. Vines very 

 strong and needing but slight support. Twenty 

 pods to a vine. The vine branches just under the 

 surface of the soil, two generally of equal vigor 

 growing to a height of two to two and one-half 

 feet. The quality is excellent." Notwithstand- 

 ing the large amount of inferior and spurious stock 

 which has been sold, no plea of recent introduc- 

 tion has gained more rapidly in popularity than 

 this, thus showing that it has sterling merit which 

 gardeners appreciate. My stock has been care- 

 full v selected and is true. Packet, 10c. ; pt., 20c.; 

 qt.,'35c.; peck, $1.50; bushel, $5.50;
