GARDEN PEAS— Early Varieties iy'zem"7 © 
(Varieties marked with star (*) are wrinkled ) 
Peas do best in a light, rich, loamy soil that has been liberally manured the previous season. Plant the smooth 
varieties as early as the ground can be worked. The wrinkled peas are not as hardy and should be planted 
later, but they are sweeter and better flavored. For a continuous crop, plant every two weeks—as late as 
August for a late crop. Plant 2 to 3 inches deep in double rows 6 to 8 inches apart, 242 to 3 feet between the 
double rows; stake the tall varieties with brush and work the earth toward them two or three times during 
growth. Gather as fast as they are fit to use, otherwise they will stop bearing.

319. Wood Y Pedigree Extra Early Gee Treplien a thoroughbred 
pea. The pods are well shaped and well filled, containing usually 5 to 7 
beautiful green peas, the pods retaining their fresh green color long after 
being picked. We recommend this pea on account of its extreme earliness, 
well-filled pods and great productiveness. By mail postpaid, pkt. 10c;

321. Wilt-Resistant Extra Early Alaska (Sometimes Stost of All). 
(50 days; height 214 feet)—Recommended for its earliness and hardiness, 
allowing extra early planting; pods and peas are not large, but are borne 
in abundance. In earliness it is a close rival to our Pedigree Extra Early. 
A prime favorite with market growers as it holds its green color so well, 
and almost the entire crop can be gathered at a single picking. By mail

322. Large Podded Alaska or Ameer (55 ‘ays; height 2%4 feet)— 
Only a few days later than 
Extra Early Alaska, but the pods are very much larger, the peas are larger, 
and it is more productive. The dark green pods are frequently borne in 
pairs; its hardiness allows earlier planting than the wrinkled varieties; it 
bears abundantly and the quality is good. By mail postpaid, pkt. 10c;

of the large-podded wrinkled peas, and yields better than any 
other peas of equal quality; the 4 to 4%-inch pods are dark 
green, large, long and well filled with sweet and delicious peas. 
With many market growers it is supplanting Thomas Laxton; 
they prefer it because the pods can be easily and economically 
picked. Progress will appeal to both home gardeners and mar- 
ket growers because of its earliness and its really choice, sweet 
quality. By mail postpaid, pkt. 10c; 4% Ib. 20c; lb. 35c; 2 lbs. 60c;
