PEAS 
Vitamins a Bc G 
1 Ib. will sow 100 ft. row 
All peas are Treated with Spergon Before Shipment. 
Peas should be planted as soon as the frost is out of the ground. Make a trench about 2 in. 
deep and scatter the peas, they can be close together — just so they are not touching each 
other. Rows should be 214 to 3 ft. apart. 
Wando is a heat resistant variety and successive 
sowings should be made until the first of July for peas all summer. 
*362 WORLD’S RECORD or EARLY 
GRADUS: 57 days. Our earliest pea. Pop- 
ular because of earliness, large pods, good 
yields and fine quality. Pods 31% in. long, 
broad, plump and filled with 7 to 8 large, 
tender peas. Vines 214 ft., vigorous. 1 lb. 
A0¢; Ib. 70¢; 2 Ibs. $1.35; 5 Ibs. $2.15: 
*360 WANDO: 68 days. Many gardens are 
planted too late to produce a good crop of 
peas. Wando is a pea you can plant as late 
as July Ist and still get a good crop of high 
quality peas. It has consistently given us 
good yields even in hot summer weather. 
In 1951 our last planting made June 25th 
matured an excellent crop in mid-August. 
Wando yields well, has excellent flavor and 
quality and freezes well. 1% Ib. 45¢; Ib. 
85¢; 2 lbs. $1.65; 5 lbs. $2.30.

363 GREATER PROGRESS: 60 days. (Wilt 
Resistant). Preferred by many growers as 
their second early pea because of its uni- 
form, attractive large pods and excellent 
quality. Vines dark green, 18 in. high. 
Pods dark green, 414 in. long, plump, 
tapered at end, and filled with 7 to 8 large, 
sweet and tender peas. 1% lb. 40¢; lb. 70¢; 
2 Ibs. $1.35; 5 Ibs. $2.20. 
“Your treated seed of cabbage, melons and peas 
save us lots of time and give wonderful results.”

Little Marvel and Wando Peas make a wonderful 
combination for the home garden. Make an early 
planting of both varieties and later plantings of 
Wando. They are both quality peas and freeze 
well. 
*361 LITTLE MARVEL: 62 days. Heavy 
yield, earliness, delicious high quality peas 
and an attractive appearance make Little 
Marvel a most desirable variety for table 
use and freezing. The 18 inch vines bear a 
heavy crop of dark green, nearly round, 
square-ended pods 3 inches long; tightly 
packed with 7 to 8 sweet, tender peas. We 
recommend it wherever peas can be planted 
early. 1% lb. 40¢; lb. 70¢; 2 lbs. $1.35; 5 Ibs.

RADISH 
Vitamins b c g 
For continuous harvest, sow every two weeks from April Ist to September Ist. 
Pkt. will sow 25 ft. row, an ounce 100 ft. 
Uniform sow- 
ing 1 inch deep and 1% inch apart should require no thinning. Place rows 12 inches apart. 
391 CAVALIER: 22 days. Ours is a particu- 
larly uniform strain of Cavalier. Radishes 
are the true olive shape, brilliant scarlet in 
color, very firm and crisp and with uniform 
short tops. Pkt. 15¢; oz. 30¢; 14 Ib. 45¢. 
392 EARLY SCARLET GLOBE: 23 days. 
Popular old variety with many gardeners. 
Radishes are oval, bright scarlet; flesh 
white, crisp and moderately mild. Pkt. 15¢; 
oz. 30¢; 4 Ib. 45¢. 
393 EARLY SCARLET GLOBE, SHORT 
TOP: 23 days. A strain of equally good 
quality but having shorter tops than the 
standard Early Scarlet Globe. Pkt. 15¢; 
oz. 30¢; 4 lb. 45¢.

scarlet with white bottom. Flesh white and 
crisp. Tops small. Roots oblong, blunt,

*399 RADISH BLEND: This is a blend of 
Comet, Early Scarlet Globe, and White 
Icicle radishes. ‘The advantage of sowing 
the blend of radishes for the home garden 
is that the early varieties, Comet and Early 
Scarlet Globe, bottom first and can be 
pulled leaving room for the later maturing 
Icicle. Pkt. 15¢; oz. 30¢; 14 Ib. 50¢. 
Comet is especially good for the home garden. It 
holds longer without becoming pithy and strong. 
*390 COMET: 25 days. Radishes in the 
home garden have the habit of becoming 
pithy before they can all be used. One way 
to avoid this is to make small successive 
sowings. Another practice that helps is to 
sow Comet. It is a very attractive round 
radish that doesn’t seem to get pithy as 
quickly as other varieties or as ‘hot’. Pkt. 
15¢; oz. 30¢; 4 Ib. 50¢. 
398 ICICLE: 30 days. ‘The best early white 
variety. Tops small. Roots long, tapered; 
very white throughout, brittle as ice; mild 
and of splendid quality until 5 to 6 inches 
long and 1% inch thick. Pkt. 15¢; oz. 30¢; 
Y |b. 50¢.
