Culture—The planting of an early crop of Garden 
Peas should be made in the spring, as soon as the 
ground can be worked, in a warm, dry location and 
covered about 3 inches. They are usually planted in 
double rows three to four feet apart, and, those requir¬ 
ing it, bushed when about six inches high. The large 
and later sorts do better at a greater distance apart, 
leaving a broad space for planting low growing vege¬ 
tables between. 
A^RIC.^ WONDER (10 inches). 61 days. Of fine 
quality and flavor, and wonderfully productive. Its great 
distinctive feature, however, is its compact and dwarf 
growth. 
——incnes;. bO days. A 
dwarf, p^hfic green wrinkled marrow, habit similar to 
the Toni Thumb. It has all the sugary flavor of the late 
wrinkled peas. 
Extra Early Varieties 
ALASKA OR EARLIEST OF ALL (28 inches). 60 
days. The earliest of all the blue peas. Very productive; 
pods filled with peas of good size that retain their color 
after cooking. This is distinctively a market gardener’s 
sort, as it can always be picked in two pickings. 
THE NEBRASKA SEED CO.’S FIRST AND BEST 
(30 inches). 60 days. Vines small, bearing three to 
seven straight handsome pods, each containing six to 
eight medium sized round peas of good quality. The 
stock we offer is especially grown for us. 
Second Early Varieties 
LAXTON’S PROGRESS. 62 days. The largest podded 
and most attractive of the Laxtonian family. Popular 
for markets, also for home planting. Pods single, % inch 
wide, dark green, contain 7 to 8 large peas of good qual¬ 
ity. Seeds large, cream with green, wrinkled. Strain of 
this important variety is noted for its green color. 
MARVEL (15 inches). 60 days. A new extra early 
wrinkled pea of dwarf even growth and great productive¬ 
ness. The vines average fifteen inches in height with 
ample, though rather small, dark green foliage and are 
heavily set with fine pods, frequently in pairs. The pods 
are rounded and well filled, being blunt or square at the 
bottom, two and one-half inches long, and contain six 
or seven quite large dark green peas. In season it is 
fully as early as Nott’s Excelsior and a much better 
cropper. On account of its very desirable habit of 
growth, its productiveness and the firm, well-filled pods, 
it is a distinct acquisition either for the home garden 
or for the market gardener who desires an early good 
crop of fine quality wrinkled peas. Most highly recom¬ 
mended. 
BLISS EVERBEARING (28 inches). 76 days. The 
vines are very prolific. As many as one hundred pods 
have been counted on a single vine. 
^deal variety for the 
small home garden where space is at a premium. Laxton¬ 
ian grows but 18 inches high, but the vines are exceed¬ 
ingly vigorous and produce pods averaging 4 inches lone 
well filled with 8 deep green, large peas, 
of delightful flavor. Ready for gathering within 70 days 
from the time seeds are sown, and since it is quite hardy 
It may be planted about the same time as the still hard¬ 
ier smooth-seeded varieties. 
NOTT’S EXCELSIOR (15 inches). 62 days. Pods 
are square and chunky, always containing from five to 
seven large peas, packed so closely together in the pods 
that the peas are always more square than round. It 
grows to a uniform height, and is at all times very ten¬ 
der and of fine flavor. 
Edible Podded Sorts 
IMPROVED SUGAR MARROW. 78 days. Being 
hardy may be planted early and will produce plants of 
strong upright habit. The pods, which are prepared like 
wax beans, are stringless, and when cooked are tender 
sweet and delicious. ’ 
DWARF GRAY SUGAR. 68 days. Similar to the 
above but dwarf in habit, growing 15 to 18 inches in 
height. 
All Peas: Pkt. 5c; V* lb. 10c; V 2 lb. 20c; lb. 35c,
