PEAS carsiey 
497 DWARF TELEPHONE 
Alsc known as Carter’s Daisy (70 days) 
The vines are exceptionally thick and strong, requiring no support although 
they grow over 2 ft. tall. The yield is excellent, but the extremely fine sweetness 
and flavor are the things that have made the variety so popular. The pods 
are 4 to 5 in. long, and contain 6 or more giant peas. In spite of its vigor, high 
yield, and the size of the peas, it matures only about a week later than the 
early wrinkled types.

PARSLEY 
Cultural suggestions: Sow seed as early as the soil 
can worked in the spring; space rows 12 to 18 in. 
apart, and after covering the seed with no more than 
¥ in. of fine soil, gently but firmly press it down. Thin 
seedlings to stand 6 to 8 in. apart in the row. A packet 
will sow about 30 ft. of row; an ounce about 200 ft. 
Parsley germinates slowly, so have the ground clean and 
in good condition.

This parsley is superior to all other strains, 
and it shows it under almost all growing condi- 
tions. The leaves are slightly darker green 
than Double Curled, and slightly shorter 
stemmed; but the curling is distinctly tighter 
and more uniform than the regular Double 
Curled. This extra tight curling is most at- 
tractive, increasing the desirability for market 
sales. It dresses up parsley buttered potatoes 
‘like a new hat on Easter Sunday.
