LAXTONI AN PEAS 
GARDEN PEAS 
(One Pound Will Plant 100 Feet of Row) 
CULTURE: Peas must have a good rich soil worked deep and thoroughly. Plant 
early varieties asi soon as the ground can be worked, in rows 3 feet apart, covering 
the peas 2 inches. For succession, sow every two weeks up to August 1st. The wrinkled 
varieties are more easily damaged by cold, wet weather than the round, hard varieties 
and therefore should not be planted very early. 
FIRST AND BEST: (60 days). Extra early peas of light color. Vines vigorous and 
hardy and produce an abundance of straight pods 2 to 3 inches long, round and blunt; 
height 2 Y 2 feet.Large Pkt. 10c V 2 lb. 20c; 1 lb. 35c 
LAXTON IAN: (62 days). Extra fine pea for either market or home garden, as its 
fine appearance is exceeded only by its remarkable flavor. In these respects, it is simi¬ 
lar to Laxton’s Progress and is only a few days later in maturity. The pods are long 
and large, dark green in color. 
The vine grows about 18 inches.Large Pkt. 10c; V 2 lb. 20c; 1 lb. 35c 
LITTLE MARVEL: (62 days). As the main crop in any home garden, this is the most 
desirable dwiarf variety. It is only 4 or 5 days later than the earliest garden pea. The 
dark green vines, 18 to 20 inches tall, grow vigorously and are laden with pods 3 inches 
long, blunt ended and packed with peas of medium size. These are temptingly dark 
green and very tender and sweet. Seeds are squarish, 
wrinkled, interior green.Large Pkt. 10c; V 2 lb. 20c; 1 lb. 35c
