best qualities of the Tendergreen—hbetter yielder, excellent flavor, tenderness, and grows 
longer and more slender than that variety. The plants are resistant to disease, are excep- 
tionally robust and healthy, producing a great abundance of long, slim, handsome pods.

round-podded Beans. Pkt., 15c; 14 Ib., 35c; lb., 65c; 2 Ibs., $1.20; 5 Ibs., $2.60;

186 FREEZONIAN PEA 
(improved Thomas Laxton) 
Early and Sweet 
(62 days.) For sweetness and delicious flavor there is no finer 
early Pea than the standard Thomas Laxton, and now Freezonian 
brings you a larger and huskier strain of the same type with the 
same superb quality. It is wilt-resistant, with taller, more vigorous 
vines, slightly larger and more uniform pods, and even better yields. 
Ripening about a day later, the pods are well filled with large, tender 
Peas, perfectly adapted for quick freezing, as well as canning and 
fresh use. Freezonian is a variety of the very finest quality, high in 
sugar and unusually tender. Yet it is hardy, productive and depen- 
able, and we highly recommend it for home gardens as well as 
market and roadside stands. Pkt., 10c; 14 Ib., 30c; Ib., 50c; 2 Ibs., 
90c; 5 Ibs., $1.90.

superior eating qualities. Dr. Singleton, who developed both Mar-
