Jerome B. Rice Seed Co., Growers of Choice Gorden Seeds, Cambridge, N. Y 
♦PRINCE EDWARD —One of the best and most pro¬ 
ductive of the large, dark-podded Telephone types; 
pods are uniformly large and well filled. 
♦STRATAGEM, IMPROVED —A well-known old fav¬ 
orite sort, growing 2 feet in height, with a stout, dark 
green vine, producing long, pointed, dark green pods. 
♦SUGAR, DWARF GRAY SEEDED (Edible Pods)—A 
purple-blossomed variety, quite like Tall Gray, but 
earlier and more dwarf. 
SUGAR, DWARF WHITE (Edible Pods) — Compared 
with Mammoth Melting Sugar is earlier and with a 
less broad pod. 
♦SUGAR, GIANT LUSCIOUS —Considered one of the 
best of the large-podded sugar varieties. 
SUGAR, MAMMOTH MELTING, or TALL WHITE 
SUGAR (Edible Pods) —The most popular and larg¬ 
est of the edible podded varieties. The sugar peas are 
not shelled like ordinary varieties, but the pods are 
gathered when the seed is partially developed and 
used in the same manner as snap beans. They have a 
rich, sugary flavor. 
♦TELEPHONE— An old favorite standard high quality 
variety, but is being largely supplanted by dark podded 
types.
