“BEST POSSIBLE” SEEDS.

POIS PEAS PISELLO 
Laxton’s Progress Peas 
The smooth sorts may be sown first, the wrinkled 
varieties about a week later. If planted too early 
there is danger of the seed rotting in the ground. 
Dig a wide furrow about four inches deep and cover 
the seed with one inch of soil. The plant roots need 
support and as the sprout grows, heap the dirt up 
around it. It is well to plant dwarf varieties in 
rows two feet apart, three feet for the medium high 
sorts and four feet for the tall. Thorough culti¬ 
vation keeps the weeds down and aids the growth 
of the Pea. 
2 pounds to 100 feet of drill, 2 bushels to the acre 
SMOOTH SEEDED VARIETIES 
Pilot — A large podded early, smooth Pea. About 
2K feet high with medium green foliage and 
dark green pods filled with 6 to 7 dark green peas. 
Very productive. Often called a smooth Gradus. 
58 days. 
Early Bird — An exceptionally early and pro¬ 
ductive Pea. The vine is about 18 inches high 
and produces broad straight dark green pods 
about four inches long containing six to eight 
deep green semi-wrinkled peas of high quality. 
This variety stands very early planting. 
Our Pea seed is very superior. 
Our Pea seed is very superior being grown 
on disease-free, irrigated land and is carefully 
rogued to remove all type plants. 
EARLY VARIETIES 
World’s Record—An improved type of Gradus, 
slightly earlier, shorter, true to type and more 
productive. Pods four inches long, broad, 
pointed and well filled. Height two feet. 57 days. 
Thomas Laxton—Hardier and slightly later 
than the Gradus and a more abundant yielder. 
Pods three and one-quarter inches long, straight 
and round. Height 3 feet. 62 days. 
Imp. Gradus — Large, wrinkled and early. Peas, 
large and tender, of good quality and flavor. 
Pods four inches long, straight, slightly rounded 
at the point. Height 3 feet. 58 days. 
Early Morn — A favorite variety in Northern New 
England. It is somewhat similar to the Gradus 
but will not grow quite so high and is about 5 
days later than our improved strain of that 
variety. 
Easy Money — A new variety growing about 2 
feet high and producing large, plump dark green 
pods, similar to Gradus but maturing about 5 
days ahead or in the Worlds Record period.

Its appearance alone tells you that.
