Potlatch or Big Dinner 



Decidedly the Best of All Dwarf, Large Podded Main Crop Peas 



Potlatch or Big Dinner has become 

 one of our most popular sorts, the de- 

 mand for this excellent variety among 

 our market gardener friends being enorm- 

 ous; it is not only a favorite sort with 

 them, but is equally popular for the 

 home garden. Potlatch is Chenook In- 

 dian for Big Dinner, hence the name 

 Potlatch. The vines are vigorous, grow- 

 ing 20 to 24 inches high, with unusually 

 dark green foliage, which can be distin- 

 guished from that of other peas. The 

 long pods are a rich dark green in color, 

 often measuring 6 inches or more, with 

 9 to 11 enormous peas in a pod. The 

 growth of vine is sturdy and pods are 

 borne in pairs; it is a wonder in produc- 

 tiveness, and the way the peas shell out 

 is astonishing. No variety known will 

 produce more pods, shell better, or con- 

 tain more tender and delicious peas. 

 Packet, 10 cents; pint, 50 cents; 

 quart. 90 cents, postpaid. 

 By express or freight, not prepaid, 

 quart, 75 cents; 4 quarts, $2.75; peck, $5.00.

514 Mammoth Luscious 



The Perfect Sugar Pea 

 Unsurpassed by Any Other Sort 



This splendid sugar pea fully maintains its 

 reputation as a choice table variety. Indeed, 

 our sales of the seed increase year by year. The 

 peas are not shelled, but the pod is eaten like a 

 snap bean. The pods are stringless, and in 

 flavor, brittleness and succulence are unex- 

 celled. The vines are very tall, reaching a height 

 of 5 or 6 feet and requiring support. The full 

 grown pods are 6 to 7 inches long and V/„ inches 

 broad, and are produced continuously for a con- 

 siderable period, the vines having great bear- 

 ing capacity on account of their height. The 

 sweetness and tenderness of this pea insures it 

 a permanent place in the garden. It is so 

 enormously productive of delicious pods, that 

 a few packets of the seed will supply an ordi- 

 nary family. It should be tried where bush 

 beans and snap shorts are relished.
