Peas from Your Own Garden Taste Twice As Good 
PEAS 
I lb. will sow 100 ft. row 
Peas should be planted as soon as the frost is out of 
the ground, 1 inch deep and 2 to 3 inches apart in row. 
Rows from 23^ to 33^ feet apart, depending on variety. 
In our triajs Morse’s Market has outyielded all other midseason 
varieties. This together with high quality makes it an outstanding 
SURPRISE OR ECLIPSE: 61 days. We are not list¬ 
ing Alaska as we can see no place for it in the north. 
Surprise is just as early and productive and of far 
better quality. It is a sweet wrinkled variety grow- 
ing 28 to 30 inches tall. The pod is 3 inches long 
containing 6 to 8 peas. Only desirable for home 
garden. 3^ lb. 20 cts.; lb. 30 cts.; 2 lbs. 55 cts.: 
5 lbs. $1.25; 15 lbs. $2.55; 100 lbs. $13.25. 
LITTLE MARVEL: 62 days. One of the older vari¬ 
eties of early wrinkled peas but one of the best; if 
not the best. Our experience is that it will outyidd 
Surprise and is more dwarf, growing only 18 inches 
tall. The pods are about 3 inches long, 7 to 8 peas 
in a pod. Like Surprise, it is not desirable for ship¬ 
ping as the pods are too small. Little Marvel is 
much better for home markets. The pod is a darker 
green than Surprise. 3^ lb. 20 cts.; lb. 30 cts.; 
2 lbs. 55 cts.; 5 lbs. $1.25; 15 lbs. $2.55; 100 lbs. 
$13.25. 
LAXTON PROGRESS; 62 days. The most popular 
of the dwarf, large podded, wrinkled, local market 
and shipping varieties. Vines 16 to 18 inches high. 
Pods to 5 inches long and pointed containing 7 
to 9 large peas of good quality. Pods grow singly on 
vine. ^ lb. 20 cts.; lb. 30 cts.; 2 lbs. 55 cts.; 
5 lbs. $1.25; 15 lbs. $2.55; 100 lbs. $13.25.

ety for home and market garden. First of the Lax- 
ton group to be introduced. Now largely replaced 
by Laxton Progress. Vines 30 to 36 inches tall. 
Pods 33^ to 334 ^ inches long, square ended containing 
7 to 8 large tender peas of good quality. lb. 20 
cts.; lb. 30 cts.; 2 lbs. 55 cts.; 5 lbs. $1.25; 15 lbs. 
$2.55; 100 lbs. $13.25. 
MIDSEASON GIANT: 67 days. Very similar to, if 
not identical with, Asgrow 40, Giant Stride and Wy¬ 
oming Wonder. Matures after the early varieties 
and seems to stand the hot weather better than most 
varieties of this season. The vines grow about 20 
inches high. The 434 inch pods contain 8 to 9 large 
peas of good quality. Pods are dark green which 
make it a desirable shipping variety. 34 lb. 20 cts.; 
lb. 30 cts.; 2 lbs. 55 cts.; 5 lbs. $1.25; 15 lbs. $2.55; 
100 lbs. $13.25. 
MORSE’S MARKET: 70 days. New, large-podded 
early midseason variety. Vines robust, 24 to 30 
inches tall; pods 5 to 5 34 inches long. This variety 
produces abundantly—many doubles. 34 lb. 20 
cts.; lb. 35 cts.; 2 lbs. 65 cts.; 5 lbs. $1.50; 15 lbs. 
$2.70; 100 lbs. $14.75. 
ALDERMAN OR DARK PODDED TELEPHONE: 
74 days. This is so much better than the old Tele¬ 
phone that we no longer list that variety. Alderman 
is the late variety commonly used in sections where 
peas are grown for shipping. The vine grows about 
40 inches tall; the pod is 4^ to 534 inches long, dark 
green and contains 8 to 10 plump large peas. We con¬ 
sider Alderman the best tall pea. 34 lb. 20 cts.; lb. 
30 cts.; 2 lbs. 55 cts.; 5 lbs. $1.25; 15 lbs. $2.55; 
100 lbs. $13.25. 
STRATAGEM: 79 days. A superior late wrinkled all 
purpose variety that seems to be quite resistant to 
wilt. Vines grow about 25 inches high and set a
