Early Wrinkled Peas 
These are much finer than the hard, smooth Peas, being much sweeter and of superior flavor. They cannot 
be planted quite as early, as they are liable to decay in cold, wet soil. 
THOMAS LAXTON.— The earliest Wrinkled Pea. 
Equal in quality to the best of the late wrinkled sorts. 
Peas are large as Telephone, unsurpassed in quality; 
coming into use early in June, as soon as the small, 
round, early sorts. This is certainly the finest Wrinkled 
Pea yet introduced, coming in with the first earlies, with 
pods double the size. The pods are a dark rich green, 
straight and square ended, and contain on the average 
seven to eight large, narrow peas of the richest flavor. 
We consider it superior to, and likely to supersede, that 
fine early pea, the “Gradus,” being hardier in constitu- 
tion, darker in color and a better yielder. It is a reli- 
able market gardener’s as well as private gardener’s pea, 
and will undoubtedly take the same place among earlies 
as Telephone among the late sorts. Pkt., 10c; lb., 35c; 
2 lbs., 65c; 15 lbs., $4.50. 
LITTLE MARVEL. — An extra early dwarf wrinkled 
sort, particularly suited to home gardens. Vines average 
15 to 18 inches high, vigorous, dark green foliage. Peas 
are borne together in pairs of twos. Though compara- 
tively a new sort, it has become exceedingly popular on 
account of its large productive yield. Pkt., 10c; lb., 30c; 
2 lbs., 55c; 15 lbs., $4.00. 
McLEAN’S LITTLE GEM. — An old variety still largely 
grown and quite early. It is productive and the peas 
are of high quality. Grows a little taller than most ex- 
tra early varieties. Pkt., 10c; lb'., 30c; 2 lbs., 55c; 15 
lbs., $4.00. 
GRADUS, or PROSPERITY. — One of the very best 
early wrinkled, large podded Peas. The pods are fully 
as long as Telephone. Vine similar in appearance and 
does not grow so tall, being of medium height, about 
3 to 3J4 feet. The pods are 4 to 4J4 inches long, pointed, 
handsome and one of the most attractive of the early 
wrinkled sorts. Peas very large, splendid quality and 
a beautiful light green color. This has been one of the 
most popular varieties in cultivation. Pkt., 10c; lb., 35c; 
2 lbs., 65c; 15 lbs., $4.50. 
NOTT’S EXCELSIOR. — This is one of the standard 
high-grade Peas that have established themselves with 
?ardeners so firmly that many will take no other variety 
or its season. Its quality is fine, and for a wrinkled 
Pea, it is hardy and thoroughly reliable. It does not re- 
quire staking and the pods ripen evenly, making it ex- 
tremely ‘valuable for home and market use. Pkt., 10c; 
lb.. 35c; 2 lbs., 55c; 15 lbs., $4.00. 
AMERICAN WONDER. — A leading dwarf wrinkled Pea. 
Esteemed for earliness, productiveness, flavor and quality; 
strong and robust in habit, growing about 10 inches high, 
and produces a profusion of good-sized pods, which are 
fairly packed with the finest flavored Peas. Has always 
been a great favorite for the home garden. Pkt., 10c; 
lb., 35c; 2 lbs., 55c; 15 lbs., $4.00. 
PREMIUM GEM. — A very fine extra early Dwarf Pea 
of Little Gem type, on which it is a decided improve- 
ment; pods are larger and more productive. Pkt., 10c; 
lb., 30c; 2 lbs., 55c; 15 lbs., $4.00.

cent introduction and excellent quality. Vines vigorous,

many private and market gardeners to be the best of all.
