Giant-Pod Hamper. A new early variety which we believe is destined to become 
very popular. In season it comes a day later than Laxton’s Progress but has a 
larger pod and more vine. The dark green, pomted, 414 to 5-inch pods mature 
in 65 days and come in large numbers on 22-inch vines with dark green, heavy 
foliage. The flavor and eating qualities are fine. 
Giant Stride. Also called Asgrow 40, Midseason Giant, and Wyoming Wonder. 
The 414 to 5-inch, dark green, pointed pods of this new variety are borne in large 
numbers on strong, vigorous, 24-inch vines. It matures in 74 days, with the 
main-crop varieties, and withstands both wilt and hot, dry weather. 
Gilbo. A fine new variety with dark green, heavy, 24 to 28-inch vines with a heavy 
yield of 414 to 5-inch, dark green, pointed, well-filled pods maturing in 69 days or 
about 5 days after Laxton’s Progress. The quality is very fine. Gilbo resists wilt. 
Hundredfold. Ready in 65 days, about 4 days after Laxton’s Progress, and bears 
dark green, fairly broad and pomted pods, 4 inches long, containing about 8 
large, dark green Peas. The vines are 18 inches high, sturdy, and resist heat well. 
Laxton’s Progress. The 44-inch deep green pointed pods hold 8 or 9 large dark 
green Peas of very high quality. The 15-inch vines are productive and mature 
Peas in 64 days, 1 day before Hundredfold and 5 days after World’s Record. 
Little Marvel. A dwarf, early, very prolific variety maturing the pods in 63 days. 
Vines 18 inches tall, bear a remarkably large crop of 314-inch pods filled with 
sweet, dark green large Peas. The pods, often in pairs, are straight, deep green, 
and square ended, and always well-filled regardless of weather. 
Telephone, Dark-Pod or Alderman. The vines are vigorous, 314 feet high, with 
large, coarse, dark green Jeaves and produce an abundance of attractive dark 
green pods 414 inches long, straight, broad and pointed, filled with 8 large light 
green Peas which are very tender and of fine sweet flavor. The pods are ready to 
pick in 72 days. This variety is wilt-resistant. 
Thomas Laxton. The dark green vine grows 21% feet high. In 62 days it yields a 
heavy crop of straight, round, square-ended, dark green 314-inch pods packed 
with 7 or 8 medium green Peas. 
World’s Record or Improved Gradus. Earliest of all large-podded Peas, maturing 
its pods in 59 days, often before
