Woods WILT-RESISTANT RAMSHORN BLACK-EYE PEAS —

SEEDSMEWN SINCE 1879 - 
The Earliest and Longest Yielding Edible 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 and some oc- 
casionally 10 inches), with many more pods to the vine and con- 
siderably larger yields are obtained over ordinary blackeye peas. 
Resistant to wilt, nematodes, charcoal 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 three years 
indicate that they will thrive and yield much better in wet or dry 
seasons than any other varieties. A leading southern experiment 
station reported: “Both Wood’s Early and Giant Wilt-Resistant 
Ramshorns made an excellent vine growth and put on a good crop 
of peas.” In the test the Early Wilt-Resistant peas’ yield in green 
weight was 18,200 lbs.—Giant Wilt-Resistant 20,400 lbs., against 
Black Peas 16,900 lbs., and Harly Ramshorn 15,200 lbs. 
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

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, with least vine 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 pounds per acre of dry seed have been 
reported. The most satisfactory pea to plant on very fertile soils, 
where the Giant strain will have a tendency to too much vine. 
In a test plot, grown on a wind-blown sandy hill, it yielded 23.7 
one hundred pound sacks per acre,

Giant Wilt-Resistant Peas 
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 other cow peas. The Giant 
strain has runners 8 to 10 feet long and the pods are not carried 
as high above the plant as they are in the early type. Makes a 
strong plant and does well on weak soil where the early strain 
would not produce a heavy crop. Has the largest pods and seeds 
of all Blackeye Peas,
