Alderman 
( Second Early. ) This 
comparatively new pea 
is in many respects the 
very best early main-crop variety of the valuable 
T elephone type. The vines grow nearly five feet 
high, are dark green, vigorous and exceedingly 
productive. Pods very large, long, dark green, 
similar to Duke of Albany and about the same in 
season. The peas are of largest size and unsur- 
passed in quality. Market gardeners are demand- 
ing the large podded, dark colored sorts which 
retain their fine appearance even after shipping a 
long distance. The Alderman answers these re- 
quirements and furthermore is the most productive 
vanety of this class. We recommend it unreservedly 
Improved Stratagem 
A splendid main crop variety. Most stocks of 
the large podded, semi-dwarf, English varieties of 
peas have been so wanting in uniformity and even- 
ness of type as to disgust American planters, but 
by constant effort we have developed a stock which 
comes true and we do not hesitate to pronounce it 
one of the best of the large podded sorts. The 
pods are of largest size and uniformly filled with 
very large, dark green peas of the finest quality. 
Little Marvel 
An excellent dwarf sort 
for the market and 
home garden. The 
pods average a little longer than those of Premium 
Gem, are more attractive in shape and color and the 
peas are of superior quality. The vines arc sturdy, 
nearly eighteen inches high, heavily set with straight, 
deep green pods, square ended at the bottom and 
nearly three inches in length. Its season is about the 
same as Premium Gem. Seed large, green, wrinkled. 
I bought Tomato and Cabbage seed 
from your agent, sowed the same in 
boxes and in five days it came up in 
fine shape. Mrs. F. Lee, Todd Co., 
Minn. 
The customers I sold your Garden 
Seeds to are highly pleased. I used 
a good many myself and all proved 
satisfactory. Peter Miller, Clarion 
Co., Pennsylvania. 
I can say that your seeds are ex- 
cellent. It seems as if every seed 
that I sowed grew. R. P. Bryant, 
Todd County, Minn. 
Your Garden Seeds have given good satisfaction. I got a good recommend 
from every man I asked about them. F. E. Bowman, Lackawanna Co., Pa. 
I sowed your 6eed last Spring and have the best Garden I have had for 
years. Mrs. Fanny Holland, Saratoga County, N. Y. 
IMPROVED STRATAGEM 
PRIlSir^F 1 rnw A PH DI7 A The L ar 8 est Podded Pea ever Produced 
A 1\I1 1 V/Li I jI y TT /a1\L/ £ U/l As the name implies the Prince Edward Pea is of English 
origin. At the leading Agricultural shows it has always 
taken first prize. There is a constantly increasing demand for large podded peas on account of the saving of time in picking. This 
variety produces pods seven inches long and upwards, containing 8 to 13 dark green peas of finest quality. Vines grow exceedingly 
thrifty and free from blight or mildew, 5 to 6 feet in length and enormously productive. The most luscious flavor of these peas 
combined with the tremendous size of pod is sure to make them as popular in this country as they now are in England.
