BREEDERS AND GROWERS OF VEGETABLE SEEDS 17 PEAS —Continued HUNDREDFOLD A very attractive, early, large podded sort, resembling Lax- tonian, for shipping, canning and freezing. Vine very dark green, stout, has tendency to develop "spikey" top. Pods single, broad, very deep green, pointed, curved; contain 8 large peas of excellent quality. Frozen peas oblong, dark green; sieve sizes 3 to 7. Seed large, wrinkled, yellow and green, somewhat flat. LAXTONIAN—BLUE BANTAM STRAIN The best known of the early, dwarf, large podded sorts. Used for shipping, canning and freezing. Vine dark green, rather coarse; "tops off" well at maturity. Pods single, broad, dark green, slightly curved, pointed ; contain 7 to 8 large, succulent peas. Frozen peas oblong, deep green; sieve sizes 3 to 7. Seed large, flattish, yellow and green, wrinkled. LAXTON'S PROGRESS Developed by Laxton Bros, and introduced in 1922. The largest podded and most attractive of the Laxtonian family. Popular for shipping, garden planting and for canning and freezing. Vine medium dark green. Pods single, ~-s inch wide, dark green, somewhat curved, pointed, handsome; con- tain 7 to 9 large peas of good quality. Frozen peas oblong, deep green; sieve sizes 3 to 7.
