Woods WILT-RESISTANT RAMSHORN BLACK-EYE PEAS 
The Earliest and Longest Yielding Edible Peas 

A field of Wilt-Resistant Black Eye Peas. The heaviest yielding 
of all Black Eye Peas. 
EDIBLE PEAS—They should be in every garden. Economical 
to plant, make a delicious dish when green, besides furnishing peas 
for winter when vegetables are scarce and high in price. Both 
dried and green peas are a profitable crop to market, and usually 
bring good prices. Plant after the ground gets thoroughly warm, 
2 inches deep, 1 lb. to 200 feet. Do not plant after tobacco as too 
much nitrogen causes an exceSs vine growth which reduces the 
yield of peas, 
WILT-RESISTANT RAMSHORN BLACKEYE PEAS are large 
size, very uniform in shape, smooth skin, bright color, and excep- 
tionally fine flavored. Have long pods (7 to 8 inches), with many 
more pods to the vine and considerably larger yields are obtained 
over ordinary blackeye peas. Resistant to wilt, nematodes, char- 
coal rot and other diseases that materially reduce the growth, yield 
and quality of other peas. Reports from all sections of the 
South for the past two years indicate they will thrive and yield 
much better under normal wet or dry seasons than any other va- 
rieties. A leading Southern experiment station reported: “‘Both 
Wood’s Early and Giant Wilt-Resistant Ramshorns made an excel- 
lent vine growth and put on a good crop of peas.” 
EARLY WILT RESISTANT RAMSHORN PEAS 
The earliest of the wilt-resistant peas, maturing green peas in 
about 60 days, and dried peas in 70 to 75 days. Are erect growing 
bush pea, very compact growth, making cultivation easy. Matures 
very early so that it can be either used for a quick crop when 
planted early, or can be planted late as a double crop. Yields in 
excess of 4,000 lbs. per acre of dry seed have been reported. 
GIANT WILT RESISTANT RAMSHORN PEAS 
About a week later than the early strain. As the name indicates, 
they are much larger than any other edible pea. A very heavy 
fruiter, prolific, and generally command quite a premium whether 
sold green or dried. It is a dual purpose pea, producing a tre- 
mendous yield of green and dried peas, yet makes more vine growth 
and better for green manure or hay than Iron, Brabham or other 
cowpeas (see below).

OTHER EDIBLE PEAS FOR THE TABLE AND MARKET 
They Are Listed in the Order of Maturity 
—The earliest of all blackeye peas. Will 
Extra Early Blackeye produce green peas for market in sixty 
days from early planting, and 50 to 55 days late planting. Will 
mature dry peas in 70 days. It is a prolific bearer of well-filled 
pods similar in appearance to Virginia Blackeye, but distinctly 
earlier. The home gardener should grow them for an extra early 
supply of sweet, tender peas; the market gardener to get the 
benefit of the uniformly high price paid for the first blackeye 
peas on the market. 
—Makes green peas in about 68 days; 
Ramshorn Blackeye dry peas in 80 days. Makes a large leafy 
growth and is prolific, with well-filled pods. Its popularity is 
largely due to the attractive appearance of the matured peas 
and its extra good yielding quality. 
—We believe you will
