Oneida—Joe Harris notes the heavy yield on one vine. 
TALL GROWING PEAS 
The tall growing peas produce enormous crops in comparatively small space if given 
support for the vines. Many growers use brush stuck in the ground along the row, and 
others use chicken wire or a light trellis. TRAUIN-ETTS are excellent—see page 81. 
152 ALDERMAN. (4-5 ft.) 74 days. The Best Tall Variety. An improvement 
on the old Telephone pea, and it is by far the best variety of this 
type, yielding more than any other kind. The vines are of robust growth, bearing im- 
mense pointed pods often 5 inches long, containing 8 to 10 large peas. The quality is 
excellent and they hold up remarkably well. For canning and for quick freezing, 
Alderman is unsurpassed, 
In many sections of New England and at high elevations where the nights are cool, 
they can be planted late to mature in midsummer and thus prolong the season, When 
the vines are given support, they produce astonishing crops of delicious peas.

PEANUTS 

647 EARLY SPANISH. The Earliest Kind. These are not large peanuts but are the 
earliest variety and very prolific. This is decidedly the best kind for planting in the 

Peanuts can be grown in the North on a warm, sandy 
soil in a sheltered place with a southern exposure Alderman 
Plant after danger of frost, in rows 24% ft. apart. If in 
hulls, space them about 8 in, apart in the row, or plant the 
shelled nuts 3 to 6 in. apart. Cover about 1% in. deep. The 
pods or nuts are borne on flower stalks but are formed 
underground. Before frost in the fall, pull the entire yine “Yes, it did rain all spring but never have the peas been

MAIN CROP DWARF VARIETIES 
193 VICTORY FREEZER. (New) (214 ft.) 67 days. All America Win- 
ner. Developed especially for home gardens and 
freezing, Victory Freezer is an excellent choice to fill the gap between the early 

and later peas. Not a large podded type but a dependable big: yielder, with a 
quality that is hard to beat. It holds its appetizing looking, dark-green color well, 
and its tenderness and flavor will make it a real treat next winter—almost as 
though it had come direetly from your garden. Even in hot weather, the husky, 
dark green vines bear large crops of delicious peas 
The well-filled 3-3 % in, pods are easy to pick and ripen so uniformly that they 
can nearly all be picked at once; and preparing them for freezing is thus an easier 
job. But fresh or frozen, Victory Freezer will be welcome on your dinner table

varielies for the home garden and roadside stands, The handsome, dark green 
pods are slender, curved and pointed, 3 to 446 in, long and closely packed with 
8 or 9 peas of medium size and superb quality 
We believe Lincoln is one of the most delicious peas grown: it is wonderful 
for both canning and freezing. On our farm, we always plant an extra lot of 
Lincoln for our own use and we believe every home garden should haye some

late kinds, it is a robust grower, producing fine delicious peas in abundance, The

fresh use, and large enough for markets and roadside stands where quality counts
