distinct improvement on the original Stratagem, having longer, 
straighter, and broader pods, very freely produced. The haulm

Carters Harvestman 
( Wrinkled Marrowfat. Ht. 
5 ft.). — Award of Merit. R.H.S. , 
1908. — This grand Pea. which 
is a cross between Express 
and Duke of Albany (Seedling 
No. 214). possesses all the 
qualties of Duke of Albany, but the pod is distinct in shape, more 
regular in growth, not quite so tall, and altogether superior. Its 
appearance and cropping qualities are far ahead of either Duke 
of Albany or Duchess, or any of a similar class, and we are con- 
952 
fident that there is a great future before it. For market or 
garden it is a most profitable Pea. 
Carters International 
( Wrinkled Marrowfat. Ht. 5 
to 6 ft.). — Award of Merit, 
rr Alharw R.H.S., 1908.— This magnifi- 
Early Morn + ^ y cen t pea is the result of across 
" ' r between our well-known Early 
Carters International Mom and Duke of Albany. 
It is quite distinct, both in shape of pod and habit ; the pods are 
of a rich deep green, containing 11 peas of excellent size and 
flavour. This is undoubtedly the largest curved pod Marrowfat 
Pea at present offered to the public; it is quickly becoming the 
most famous early maincrop. Pods of this variety (under Seedling 
No. 211) were exhibited at the Royal Agricultural .Society's Show at 
Newcastle, and attracted much favourable attention. Awarded a 
Large Gold Medal with other vegetables. 
998 8tratag;em ( Wrinkled Marrowfat. Ht. li to 2 ft.). — Original 
stock of this fine dark-green podded Pea. which was introduced 
by us several years ago, and still holds a world-wide reputation.

table Pea. Strongly recommended.

954 Carters Model Telephone ( Wrinkled Marrowfat. Ht.5 ft.). 
— A re-selection for robustness and delicacy of flavour from 
Telephone, a maincrop wrinkled Marrow, which bears to-day a 
world-wide reputation. It is remarkably prolific, bearing large 
pods of very attractive appearance. For soils of a light nature 
we strongly recommend this variety. Peas wrinkled, 9 to 11 in a 
pod ; delicious when cooked.

LATE GARDEN PEAS. 
1004 a I Carters Dreadnought (Wrinkled 
j Marrowfat. Ht. 3 ft.).— This re- 
markable new late Pea has been 
selected by us as a grand addition to the late maincrop section. 
It is the practice of our house to make comparative tests of all the 
new Peas introduced by growers both at home and abroad. After 
careful comparison we have failed to find a Pea that pleases us 
more as a variety to come in between the maincrops and the very 
late Peas than Dreadnought. It has large bold pods well filled with 
peas of delicious flavour. We have been instrumental in intro- 
ducing many Peas which have become standard varieties, such as 
Telephone, Telegraph, Stratagem, Pride of the Market, and 
Daisy, known all over the world, and we undertake to prophesy 
that this novelty is destined to take an equally permanent place, 
not only among amateurs, exhibitors, and connoisseurs at the 
table, but also as a profitable market Pea. Its large, deep green, 
well-filled pods, and its resistance to mildew and drought, are its 
distinguishing characteristics. 
1006 Carters Michaelmas ( Wrinkled Marrowfat. Ht. 2$ ft.). — 
This grand Pea quite oversteps the boundary hitherto set by the 
times and seasons, and is absolutely distinct. Late varieties of 
Peas of past fame have been late mainly by reason of their strawy 
character. The constitution of Carters Michaelmas Pea is not 
run through in straw, but we have fixed a dwarf bushy growth of 
2j ft., which holds back its natural force and throws it into the 
pods; consequently, while being very prolific, its colour in pod is 
of the deepest green, and its pods are large and well filled. We 
have proved this Pea to possess a reserve of strength which will 
enable it to resist the drought and the mildew to a degree hitherto 
unknown in a Pea. The Royal Horticultural Society, in its report 
of trials at Wisley, says: — Carters Michaelmas. — Ht. 2$ ft.; 
haulm and pods very dark green ; very sturdy ; pods in pairs ; 
heavy crop.” 
Carters Latest Qia nt (Wrinkled 
Marrowfat. Ht. 4 ft.). — This splen- 
did late Marrowfat Pea is the out- 
come of a cross between Gladstone 
and Exhibition in 1903, and has 
been exhibited in our testing 
grounds and at various Royal 
Horticultural Society Shows under Seedling No. 241. It is an 
all-round grand selection, possessing the free podding and strong 
habit of Gladstone, but bearing handsome, well-filled pods, very 
much larger than that excellent variety. The pods invariably 
contain 11 large deep-coloured Peas. It is fit for exhibition and 
unequalled for market. It is well described by the name 
Latest Giant.

redeeming my promise, to be able to tell you that there is not a failure to report. The garden— both the vegetables and flowers— has given 
entire satisfaction : thanks to your Seeds.” — W. Owen.
