range of weather and soil conditions than any other variety. It 
will grow a crop during the driest, hottest summer months, at a 
time any other variety would be a failure. In the hot, dry local- 
ities of the West this variety will grow a large crop without irri- 
gation and without a single drop of rain falling upon it from seed 
time to harvest. If it rains and the soil is kept moist this variety 
will produce as large a crop as any variety we know of; if it 
doesn’t rain, and it gets hot and dry, you will get a crop anyway. 
The handsome round pods are well filled with from 7 to 10 peas 
in a ped; quality excellent, sweet and tender, even when the peas 
are large. Vines grow 2 feet high, and require no support. This 
pea is resistant to Fusarium Wilt and will do its best in the North, 
South, Hast or West.

large podded wrinkled pea and is some-

who plant for early market will find it
