THE CROP 



For a number of years there has beeu an 

 extreme shortage of Peas. The opening of 

 new lands in the far West where conditions 

 for groning seed Peas are good has given us 

 this year a fair crop, although not yet a nor- 

 mal one.

THE PRICE 



Prices are considerably reduced from last 

 year and the quality in general is much bet- 

 ter. A marked improvement in stocks and 

 a reduction in prices due to the improved 

 climatic conditions in the new growing dis- 

 tricts should result during the next few years. 



ALASKA OR EARLIEST OF ALL 



GRADUS OR PROSPERITY 



Alocl^a Extra early round seeded, bluish pea. Very hardy ; does not rot in cold 

 _ grniinrl as does a wrinkled pea. Pods 2)4 inches long; fair quality; 

 our stock is uniform and ripens evenly. Qt 30c, ]/2 pk 85c, pk $1.65, bu $6.50. 



Vaughan's Select Extra Early (Maud S.) i^rtior'w h\ f e' 



seeded pea. Very uniform in ripening, they may be harvested at one picking. 

 Same size pods as Alaska, peas better quality. Best stock. Qt 30c, pk 85c, 

 pk $1.65, bu $6.50. 



fj|-3/4l|c Best extra early wrinkled pea for the market gardener. Superior 

 to Alaska, Maud S. and others in quality and size, ivithin three to 

 five days as early. Pods large as Telephone; peas unsurpassed in quality. Many 

 poor grade stocks of this variety are offered at low prices; Vaughan's strain is 

 cheaper, with it you get best results. Qt 35c, J^^ pk $1.15, pk $2.25, bu $9.00. 

 Xhrkmac I avfr»n Similar to Gradus, only pods are blunt shape instead 

 1 llUiUcia l-^.\LUll pointed or tapering. On the market it does not 

 sell up to Gradus, it is a better yielder, however; in ordinary seasons the pods 

 contain one to two more peas. Qt 35c, pk $1.15, pk $2.25, bu $9.00.
