Ea rly Peas —smooth-Seeded 
Smooth-seeded peas are valuable for earliest crop, high yield and general hardiness. Seeds should be sown as early 
in the spring as ground can be worked as they do best when soil and weather are cool. Dwarf and medium-tall, 
To enjoy the sweet, de- 
licious flavor of peas, pick 
pods before they become 
fully developed and while 
still green; then cook as 
soon as possible, because 
they lose flavor rapidly.

green and contain 6 to 8 large peas of fine quality. Vines grow 30 in. high and freely produce 
their pods for a number of days. Truly delicious. Pods taper slightly from blossom to stem end.
