podded, best quality, 
dwarf variety with large 
pods and growing only 16 
to 18 inches high and re¬

podded early dwarfs. Rip¬ 
ens very early and is

table, in about 5 5 days.

GIANT GREEN PEAS 
Big luscious, jumbo peas, 
deliciously tender and of 
melting sugary quality! 
Not at all tough, as one 
might expect from such 
lai ge peas, nor are they dry 
or mealy. The plant is of 
bush form, may be planted 
in a limited space, and 
bears a large quantity of 
pods, filled to bursting with 
very large peas. Has re¬ 
ceived much publicity in 
garden magazines. A grand 
canner. 899—Pkg., 15c; lb.,

Wyoming Wonder 
Resistant to fu.sarium wdlt! Wyoming 
Wonder was bred with the idea of secur¬ 
ing a large, dark green podded pea that 
would hold its sweetness after reaching 
the picking stage. And this we have ac¬ 
complished, for Salzer’s Wyoming Won¬ 
der remains sweet and tender a week to 
ten days after it is ready to pick! 
The vines are dark green, reaching a 
height of 24 to 28 inches, depending upon 
the soil and other conditions. Pods are 
5 to 6 inches, and even 6 V 2 inches, long, 
beautiful dark green in color, pointed and 
slightly curved at the tip, and are tightly 
filled with 8 to 10 large peas of unusually 
sweet and sugary flavor. Matures in 75 
days. Because of its all around good 
qualities, coupled with its ability to re¬ 
tain its tenderness and sweetness after it 
is matured, Salzer’s Wyoming Wonder is 
alike valuable to the home gardener, the 
shipper, and the truck gardener. 86a—
