MIDSEASON 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 producing fine crops of large tender-delicious peas which are ready a few 
days before Alderman. The pods are 4J4 inches long, dark green and filled with 
8-9 big peas of delicious flavor. 
This is a finely bred wrinkled pea and should not be sown until the weather is 
settled. In our experience we find it often yields fine crops in dry weather when 
other kinds do not do well.

ROGERS GILBO. < 2 ^ Rob , ust c Large Pods, Superior Quality. Our 
-1 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 strong and robust and bear an abundance of pods. Pods 4)4 to 5 
inches long, containing 8 to 9 large peas of superb quality. Although a wrinkled 
pea, this is a more 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. 
Pkt. 10c; 34 Lb. 25c; Lb. 40c; 2 Lbs. 70c; 734 Lbs. $1.95 transportation paid. 
Not paid: 15 Lbs. $2.70; 56 Lbs. (Bu.) $8.40. 
ADVANCER. (234 ft.) One of the finest kinds we know of for home canning. The 
quality is of the very best. Matures in mid-season between the early and late 
kinds. 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. 
Pkt. 10c; 34 Lb. 25c; Lb. 35c; 2 Lbs. 60c; 734 Lbs. $1.85 transportation paid.

LINCOLN. (234 ft.) This old favorite is still among the best main crop varieties, 
especially for the home garden. The handsome dark green pods are 3 to 334 in- 
long, closely packed with 8 to 9 peas of medium size and superb quality. They 
mature a few days before Alderman and are produced in pairs near the top of the 
vines so that they can be easily picked. See photo on preceding page.

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. 
(4-5 ft.) The Best Tall Variety. This is an im- 
-1 proved 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. 
Pkt. 10c; 34 Lb. 25c; Lb. 35c; 2 Lbs. 60c; 734 Lbs. $1.85 transportation 
paid. Not paid: 15 Lbs. $2.55; 56 Lbs. (Bu.) $7.85. 
Telephone. (4 to 5 ft.) Very large pods and the peas are of highest qual¬ 
ity. This is an old standard type which has given satisfaction for years. 
Has been largely superseded by Alderman.

“I want to say a word about your Laxton peas. They are the best I have 
ever had. Last crop 1 had was the best ever. I planted 2 lbs. and picked four 
bushels.” R. S. Frost, Bristol, Conn. April 21, 1939.

An astonishing amount of vegetables can be grown on small 
plots of ground by intercropping and planting succession crops. 
Quick growing vegetables such as radishes, leaf lettuce, spinach, 
green onions from sets or plants, etc., can be planted between 
peas, beans, tomatoes and corn, etc., which require wider rows. 
Plan to follow the early crops with vegetables for fall and winter 
use, such as head lettuce, spinach, kohl rabi, turnips and others.
