Extra Early. 
Cleveland’s Alaska. The earliest pea known, being very 
uniform in growth and almost entirely free from sports or 
runners 90 per cent, of the pods can be gathered at the 
first picking. The dark green color of the pods makes it 
extremely desirable, as it can be carried long distances 
without losing color, which quality, combined with its 
earliness and uniformity of ripening, makes it the most 
desirable extra early pea for market gardeners ever offered. 
First class in every respect. Height 2£ feet. 
Cleveland’s Rural New Yorker. Very early; prolific, 
uniform in ripening. The pods are large, and contain 
from six to nine peas. Height, 2£ feet. 
Carter’s First Crop. One of the earliest varieties; 2£ ft. 
Improved Daniel O’Rourke. A favorite early variety; 
and a good bearer; 3 ft . 
Philadelphia Extra Early. Very desirable early vari¬ 
ety; 3 ft.
