MAIN CROP WRINKLED PEAS.
Telephone. — A wrinkled variety of very robust
habit and a great bearer. A single vine produces
from 18 to 20 unusually long, well-filled pods of
largest size, containing 10 to 11 peas often forming a
double row. It is very productive, of fine flavor
and an excellent table variety ; he ght about 4 feet.
Pint, 15c. Quart, 25c. Gallon, 75c. Peck. 51.50.
Bushel, 55 -oo.
jnencan Champion. — The number of testi-
monials we received favorable to the American
Champion Pea only confirms the high opinion we
had formed of it in our trials. It is one of the largest
of peas, enormously productive, and its flavor and
quality closely approach that of the well known
Champion of England. The pods are produced in
pairs and are well filled. Each pod contains from 9
to J2 large, fine peas. It is of blanching habit, and
should be sown thinly. Height. A l A feet. Pint, 15c.
Quart, 25c. Gallon. 75c. Peck, Si. 50. Bushel, S5. 00.
^^leroiiie Pea. — Has many very desirable quali-
fies which ranks it the equal of our best wrinkled
peas. A second early sort grows 2*3 feet high, has
strong and vigorous vines, laden with an adundance ,
of large handsome pods filled with peas of most lustri-
ous quality. Pint. 10c. Quart, 20c. Gallon, 50c.
90c. Bushel 55.75.

•opshire Hero. — A splendid wrinkled mar-
row, very prolific, exceedingly luscious; height, 2j4,
feet. Pint, 15c. Quart, 25c. Peck, $1.25. Bushel,
SA-po-
Improved Stratagem. — The pods are of im=
mense size and uniformly filled with very large,
dark green peas of the finest quality. All the good
qualities of the old Stratagem are highly developed,
and it is superior to the stock now generally sold as
Stratagem. Vine medium height, but very stocky,
with very broad, light green leaves, and bearing an
abundance of large, handsome pods. Pint, 15c.

- New Dwarf Giant Podded Proline Green
Marrow Pea. — This new pea, giant podded, has
given satisfaction to all who have planted it the
past three seasons. It grows about 2 feet high, and
bears enormous, handsome pods 7 to 8 inches in
length, filled with large, deliciously-flavored deep-
green peas from top to bottom. Thev require no
support, owing to their fine, dwarfy, stocky habit.
We know of no pea from which so 'large a bnlk of
produce can be obtained from a given number of vines.
It is much hardier than either the Telephone or Strat-
agem, and can be planted much earlier. It matures
about ten days later than our famous Extra Earlv,
making a valuable second earlv, as well as our finest
late, pea. Pint, 15c. Quart, 25c. Gallon, 75c. Peck,
$1.50 Bushel, s S .oo.
A/tmproved Hero Pea. — Is wonderfully prolific,
naving very large pods filled with peas of most excel-
lent quality and delicious flavor. No pea ever pleased
our customers better. The vine grows 2j4 feet. For
quality and quantity no pea surpasses this. Market
gardeners find it a profitable crop for market pur-
poses, because of its large, handsome pods so abund-
antly produced, and because it is such a choice table
pea. Pint, 15c. Quart, 25c. Gallon, 70c. Peck,
5i.oo. Bushel, 53.50.
/Champion of England.— A green, wrinkled va-
riety, famous for its delicious flavor. Consider it one
of the finest varieties for family use, and will follow
any of the second early varieties in ripening. Pint

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
