SALZER’S GIANT EXHIBITION 
Huge Pods—Luscious Quality Peas 
To those who wish huge podded peas, we suggest that they 
plant Salzer’s Giant Exhibition. It is a late maturing kind. Is 
a wrinkled pea, very productive, the huge pods being well 
packed with peas, which, although large, are of a fine quality, 
sweet, sugary flavor and not tough as one would expeof. Tlie pods 
frequently grow to seven ami even eight Inches in length, depend¬ 
ing of course somewhat on the soil, and it is not unusual to find 
between ten and twelve peas to tlie pod. The lateness of Salzer’s 
Giant Exhibition is fully offset by its productiveness and its vigor¬ 
ousness. It has numerous first prizes to its credit, from various 
fairs, which accounts for its being named Exhibition. One of the 
best main crop varieties. 
Pods rather straight, with curve near end. Vines grow vigorously. 
Ready to use in about 85 days. 872—Pkg., 15c; lb., 45c; 2 lbs.. 81c; 
5 lbs., $1.65, postpaid. Not prepaid: 10 lbs., $2.45$ 30 lbs., $6.80; 
60 lbs., $12.95.
