so? Thomas Laxton 
Tills Is a Real Rival to tlie Famous Gradus, 
as a Long-Podded, Extremely Early 
Wrinkled Pea, and in Some Respects Is 
Even Better. 
The growth is identical, but the pods are 
a deeper, richer green and square at the 
ends. In the judgment of experts, Thomas 
Laxton is even sweeter and finer in flavor, 
while as the large peas are of a deeper 
green, they present a more attractive ap¬ 
pearance on the table. The crop ripens 
only three to four days after GRADUS.

Giant Laxtonian 
New Giant Podded 
Short Straw 
May be called The Dwarf Gradus. Grows 16 to 18 inches high. The 
tall, extra early Gradus Pea, with its large, telephone-like pods and its 
exquisitely flavored peas, is one of the most popular of all peas. In 
Laxtonian we have a dwarf type of the Gradus, with the same large 
pods—almost the same in season, and, moreover, requiring no supports— 
and the same superlative quality peas. 2-Ounce Packet, 10 cts.; lb., 
20 cts.; lb., 35 cts.; 2 lbs., 65 cts., postpaid.

A distinctly American production of remarkably vigorous constitu¬ 
tion; enormously productive, and generally excellent. The pods are of 
good size, produced liberally, and are extremely well filled with excel¬ 
lent peas of perfect quality. The plant is among the smallest, very 
rarely exceeding 15 inches in height, and is easily grown. It still is, 
and long will be, extremely popular. Many people who have only small 
gardens use this sort exclusively, making repeated sowings for suc¬ 
cessive crops. 2-Ounce Packet, 10 cts.; y» lb., 20 cts.; lb., 35 cts.; 2 lbs., 
65 cts., postpaid.
