PEAS 
PETER PAN 
A506 Peter Pan 
I find this to be 
the best wrinkled 
variety for the Middle West. It is a 
splendid pea of sturdy growth. I plant 
them for main crop. The vines ijtow 15 
to 18 inches high, are dark green in color 
and wonderfully productive, bearing 
numerous handsome, large dark green 
pointed pods, which measure 4 to 4% 
inches in length and contain 8 to 9 deep 
bluish-green, sweet wrinkled peas of fin¬ 
est quality. They mature a little earlier 
than Gradus, with pods equally as long. 
If you plant this variety I am sure you 
will want them again. Pkt., 8c; '/ 2 lb., 
20c; lb., 35c; 3 lbs., $1.00, postpaid.

A494 Extra Early May ( da y a .) 
An extremely early variety of superior 
merit. Vines are dwarf, about 18 inches 
high, completely covered with an abund¬ 
ance of the finest, well filled pods. My 
experience has been that for a first early, 
heavy-bearing variety, you will not make 
a mistake by planting Extra Early May. 
It is of upright growth. Pods are large, 
for an extra early sort and quality the 
very best. Matures in 40 to 50 days. 1 
nave grown them without brush or 
stakes, but most seasons they get a little 
tall. Pkt., 8c; '/ 2 lb., 20c; lb., 35c; 3 lbs..
