Pea, Childs’ Mopping Star* 
A New Wrinkled Pea, Earlier by 
TJiis was the greatest vegetable 
novelty of 1804. It is the earliest 
Pea grown by nearly a week. It 
is a fair sized, wrinkled variety, 
and, therefore, possesses the same 
delicious quality of the late wrin¬ 
kled kinds. For the first time the 
fine quality of the late varieties is 
combined with extreme earliness. 
When this is once tried no other 
early Pea will be grown. Added 
to its other qualities it is exceed¬ 
ingly prolific and continues to 
bear longer than any other early 
sorts. It grows 18 to 20 inches 
high and does not require bushing. 
Mr. William Falconer, garden¬ 
er to Charles A. Dana, and editor 
of Gardcni)nj , says: ** I ought to 
tell you about the ‘Morning Star * 
wrinkled pea you let me try here two years ago. 1 sowed it 
in single rows in light, warm soil about the end of March 
Nearly a Week than Any of the Small Round Varieties. 
: when I sowed round peas and Alpha and American Wonder. 
I It astonished me by its earliness, coming in ahead, and it 
i is a good cropper and of fine quality. Better still, it is the 
I most reliable wrinkled pea for fall use sown August 1st— 
! that T have ever grown.*’ 
Mr. .1. Goody, of Clare, Suffolk, England, writes: “Your 
pea. Morning Star, beats any pea in England fora first crop.”

Cucumber, Childs’ Early Beauty. 
A most remarkable and valuable early Cucumber, first 
offered last year. It is a sport from Early Siberian, and 
has that variety’s great value as a cropper. It is as early as 
Extra Early Russian though twice as large as r that variety, 
and keeps its lively green color to a very late stage of 
growth, and will supplant all other early sorts, such as 
Siberian, Russian, Green Prolific, Thorburn’s Everbearing, 
etc., for it is not only earlier, but larger and much finer in 
every respect. It is even so fine thatithas been called Early 
White Spine*-though it has no relation to that superb late 
variety. Pkt., 10c.; 3 pkts., 25c.; oz., 35c.; lb., $3.00.
