883 Carters Lightning (Round Seeded. Ht. ft.). — A re- 
selected stock of the earliest white round-seeded Pea. 
884 Carters American Wonder, Re-selected (see Photo- 
graph) ( Wrinkled Marrowfat. Ht. li ft.). — An early dwarf 
Marrow. Our stock of this variety is highly selected, and is in 
every way far superior to the older stock, having pods nearly as 
large again ; handsome in appearance, with peas of very fine 
flavour. 
905 English Wonder (Wrinkled. Ht. 1 ft.). — A popular early 
Marrow, very prolific; deep green pods; compact. 
902 Earliest of All or Alaska (Blue Round. Ht. 2 ft.). — A well- 
known extra early round blue Pea, which produces peas in great 
Price of the above 
quantity. The seed can be planted as soon as the ground is fit to 
work in springtime. 
912 Notts Excelsior (Wrinkled. Ht. lj ft.). — An improved type of 
Little Gem. being as early and pods decidedly larger, and con- 
taining 7 to 9 large solid peas of fine quality. 
913 Excelsior, Carters Dwarf Improved (Wrinkled 
Ht. li ft.). — Very early and prolific, producing an abundance of 
broad pods well filled with peas of an unsurpassed flavour. Of 
so hardy a nature that this sort can be planted without fear at 
the same time as the smooth round varieties. The haulm is very 
stout, and all in all this is a very near all-round pea for any 
garden.

Carters Market Gardener 
927 Carters Market Gardener, 
Secdliug 209 (Second Early 
Wrinkled. Ht. 5 ft.). — Deep 
green pods, curved. An entirely 
new type of Pea for market 
work, or for gardens where 
quantities are required for large 
households. Although a large 
and deep green pod, it does not equal the size of our popular 
exhibition and table varieties, but it is remarkably prolific, 
yielding ?,• per cent, more than the Duke of Albany. Alderman, 
or other popular market Peas. We hope to offer it in large 
quantities, for we believe it will supersede all other market 
garden varieties.

961 Carters Buttercup ( Round Blue. Ht. 1 J to 2 ft.). — A hardy 
type of Daisy Pea. May be described as an early maincrop ; fine 
robust * abit, long well-filled pods, produced in pairs, averaging 
10 peas in each ; remarkably free bearing. The large deep-green 
seed, which is almost round, retains the sweet marrowfat flavour 
when cooked. This fine Pea was much admired at Bristol Royal 
Show, where we were awarded a Gold Medal and Silver Cup. 
924 Carters Daisy (Wrinkled. Ht. ll ft.). — The most famous 
second early Marrowfat in cultivation. First Class Certificate, 
R.H.S. This grand dwarf Marrowfat Pea has been before the 
public for some years, and still stands at the head, as confirmed 
by the great independent trial of Peas conducted by the Royal 
Horticultural Society. Their experiment comprised over 80 
varieties, and Carters Daisy gained the First Class Certificate 
given by the Society. Carters Daisy Pea is an early maincrop, 
growing about li ft. high. The haulm is very robust, and the 
crop of giant, well-filled pods of good colour is enormous. 
Visitors to Leamington Show in 1913 will remember the very fine 
pods of this remarkable Pea contained in our Exhibit of 
Vegetables, which was awarded the Gold Medal. An excellent 
forcing Pea. 
928 Carters Dawn (Wrinkled 
Marrowfat . Ht. 4^ ft.). — 
Awarded Royal Horticultural 
Society's Certificate. A very 
sturdy and hardy second early, 
introduced for the purpose of 
supplanting such old and worn- 
out types as Champion of England and King of the Marrows, 
&c., which are continually asked for because of their hardy 
nature. It is not a show variety, but for utility and heavy 
cropping it is a valuable addition. Pods medium colour, about 
same size as Ne Plus Ultra.

MAINCROP GARDEN PEAS. 
951 Carters Quite Content (Maincrop Marrowfat. Ht. 5 to 6 ft.).— This grand Pea, which has caused such a stir in the horticultural 
world, is the outcome of a cross between Alderman and Edwin Beckett. In general character it resembles the former, but the pods are 
considerably larger than either parent. In our own trials it has amply demonstrated its wonderful superiority, and when exhibited in the 
open class at Shrewsbury it easily secured the First Prize, and was pronounced by leading experts to be without doubtthe finest Pea ever seen. 
It is exceedingly prolific, and the pods hang mostly in pairs.

CARTERS “QUITE CONTENT” MARROWFAT PEA. 
A Giant Podded Maincrop. 
Pods longer and larger than any other Pea in cultivation. 
The Highest Honours Awarded this Pea.— The First Class Certificate of the Royal Horticultural Society. Shrewsbury, 1912. The First 
Prize and Championship (Competition Open to the World). The Large Gold Medal to a separate Exhibit, in conjunction with Carters other 
Vegetables. During the past few seasons this grand Pea has been included in numerous Gold Medal Exhibits, and a total of 365 First Prizes at 
all the important Shows throughout the country has been awarded. 
“The seeds you supplied me with were satisfactory. Most of my 
peas went to Toronto. My lorry was besieged on the market, the pea 
Quite Cotitent was fought for. I did not order much from you, but 
I hope to increase my order this year.” 
Mr. W. C. Cairns, Stoney Creek. Ont. 
“ We had most excellent success with Messrs. Carters seeds last 
year, which were obtained direct from London, but we hope to do even 
better this year. The Quite Content Marrowfat Pea is without a peer 
in this district, and if we get as good results this year we hope to 
exhibit a few locally.” — Mr. F. L. Lee, Kamloops. B.C. 
“I have great pleasure in sending, under separate cover, one dozen 
peas grown from your seed named Quite Content, and the name is 
right. I have had an immense crop. The show of peas was so great 
that I had the row photographed. The rest of the seeds did well.” 
Mr. S. Norfolk, Haileybury, Ont. 
“ I was very pleased with the seeds I had from you. Out of the 
common are Broad Beans, and the Quite Content Pea, some of which 
measure 5 and 6 in. in length. All are greatly admired here in the 
West ; sprouts and savoys, &c.. seem quite unknown. I am sure your 
seeds cannot be beaten.” — Mr. H. J. Coote, Humboldt, Sask. 
"The seeds I bought from you last spring gave every satisfaction. 
The Pea Quite Content is a marvellous cropper, it grew pods 4i in. 
long, and in pairs. Peas in pod, 10. I sold them in the pod in 
Montreal at 2.00 per sack. My soil was not at all rich, in fact I 
considered it rather poor, and therefore such a heavy yield was all the 
more gratifying. I enclose photographs of the row. so as to give you 
some idea of the results obtained."
