EXTRA EARLY MARKET=GARDEN PEAS. One pound will plant about fifty feet of drill, from one to two bushels per acre. Culture,—The Pea comes earliest to maturity in light, rich soil. For ^general crops a deep loam or a soil strongly inclined to clay is the best: for early crops, mild manure, such as leaf mould, should be employed. Plant as early as the weather will permit, in well prepared soil, and cover about two or three inches deep. Sow 3 feet apart for early kinds, and four feet for late. For a continuous supply sow from early in April UBtil the last of June ; then discontinue until middle of August, when an extra early sort will sometimes produce a good crop. PHILIPPS' EXTRA EARLY SUMMIT PEA. The Earliest, Evenest Cropper, the Hardiest, Finest Flavored and most CONFIDENCE WELL PLACED, Philipps' Ext'a Early Summit Pea, Most profitable Pea for Market Gardeners to grow. This Extra Early Summit Pea is a careful selection of our own and will be found entirely d'stinct and superior to any other. In the neck-and-neck race for the production of first-class Peas (each seedsman naturally endeavoring to have th- earliest), we claim that The Summit," we introduced and for us specially grown, is the earhist. best and most productive white round pea grown, none as early, maturing all the pods in about forty-five days; height about two feet, and ninety-five per cent, of the gathering in one picking. Also for a late Fall crop it is unsurpassed, growing with great rapidity. The very best for market-garden use, and we confidently recommend it in every garden for the earliest crop.
