perfect and filled, and the entire crop may be gath-
ered for the earliest shipments. Many of our largest
customers use this pea, and it gives them satisfac-

be sent by mail.
- French Canner Pea. — Long used by French
canners for their celebrated brands of canned peas.
Now used largely in this country as a market pea and
for canning purposes. The vine grows 3^ feet,
abounding with large pods filled with peas almost
the size of the Extra Early sorts, and the crop comes
in bearing as a second crop. Pint, 10c. Quart, 15c.
Gallon, 30c. Peck, 50c. Bushel, $1.40.
warf Prolific Green Marrows.— This new
Pea,, giant podded, has given satisfaction to all who
have planted it the past three seasons. It grows
about two feet high, and bears enormous, handsome
pods, 7 to 8 inches in length, filled with large, deli-
ciously flavored deep green peas from top to bottom.
They require no support, owing to their fine, dwarfy,
stocky habit. We know of no pea from which so
large a bulk of produce can be obtained from a given
number of vines. It is much hardier than either the
Telephone or Stratagem, and can be planted much
earlier. It matures about 10 days later than our fa-
mous Extra Early, making a valuable second early,
as well as our finest late Pea. Pint, 10c Quart, 20c.
Gallon, 50c. Peck, 90c. Bushel, $3.50.
CULTURE OF PEAS.— For early crop sow in Febni-
arj' or March as soon as the ground can be worked, and in
succession as desired. Rich soil is the best. Make double
rows, eig-ht inches apart: then allow a clear space three feet
or more between these and the next rows. Drop Peas along
these rows five inches apart, and between the rows plant
brush, to which the vines will cling. According to the grow-
ing tendencies of the different varieties, the brush or any
other artificial support maybe long or short.
For market crop sow in single rows three inches deep any
two or three feet apart, according to variety,
