DWARF ALDERMAN. < NEW -> < 2 "> 
- new variety 
proved very popular, and gardeners who have wanted 
the large pods and large succulent peas of the old Alder¬ 
man but who prefer dwarf vines welcome this new vari¬ 
ety. The vines are dwarf and sturdy but the pods are 
produced in great abundance and are almost as large as 
the finest Alderman. They grow nearly five inches long 
and are filled with eight to nine large green peas that are 
extremely delicious and tender. 
This is a midseason variety, maturing about the same 
time as Alderman and is a valuable kind to fill the gap 
between the early and very late varieties. We urge you 
to have some of these peas in your garden this year.

MIIDSEASON GIANT. (20 in.) If you want large podded 
fine flavored peas in abundance, try some of this kind. 
The vines are vigorous and resistant to dry weather pro¬ 
ducing line crops of large tender delicious peas which are 
ready a few days before Alderman. The pods are 4Y 
inches long, dark green and filled with 8-9 big peas of 
delicious flavor. The vines are 18 to 24 in. high, and are 
strong and sturdy. 
This is a finely bred wrinkled pea and should not be 
sown until the weather is settled. In our experience with 
this variety we find it often yields fine crops in dry 
weather when other kinds do not do well.

(2 ft.) Robust — Large Pods—Superior Quality — See photo on 
preceding page. Our customers have been well pleased with this new 
variety. The vines and pods closely resemble our Midseason Giant, but are a few days earlier. 
The vines are about two feet tall, strong and robust and bear an abundance of pods. The 
pods are 4Y to 5 inches long, containing 8 to 9 large peas of superb quality. Although a wrinkled 
pea, this is a hardy sort and can be planted earlier than most varieties of this class. 
We recommend this new kind highly both for home and market gardeners.

ADVANCER. (2Y ft.) The quality is of the very best and it is one of the finest kinds 
we know of for home canning. Matures in mid-season between the early and late 
kinds. The pods are of medium size but so well filled they contain just as many peas 
as many of the very large podded varieties. The vines yield immense crops.

LINCOLN. (2Y fl.) This old favorite is still among the best main crop varieties, espe¬ 
cially for the home garden. The handsome dark green pods are 3 to 3V£ in. long, 
closely packed with 8 to 9 peas of medium size and superb quality. They mature 
between Hundredfold and Alderman and are produced in pairs near the top of the 
vines so that they can be easily picked.

These fine pods are full of good eatin'. 
About 9/10 actual size. 
Although these kinds can be grown successfully without support, they usually do better 
if the vines are given support with brush or chicken wire, etc. 
ALDERMAN. (4-5 ft.) The Best Tall Variety. This is really an improved 
- - Telephone and it is by far the best variety of this type, yielding 
more than any other kind. The pods are similar to Telephone, but are larger, deeper 
green and better filled, while the vines are of more robust growth and more prolific. 
The pods are immense, often 5 inches long and contain 8 to 10 large peas. Matures 
medium late. For best results the vines should be given some support.

Telephone. (4 to 5 ft.) Very large pods anti the peas are of highest quality. This is an 
old standard type which has given satisfaction for years. Has been largely superseded 
by Alderman.
