Lincoln. (70 days.) The Sweetest Midseason Pea. 214 ft. A favorite of ours for

eral days before Alderman and are produced in pairs near the top of the vines so 
that they can be easily picked.

plant an extra lot for our own use. If you have not grown Lincoln, try some in 
your garden this year. They are wonderful for both canning and freezing.
