A FINE VARIETY OF PEAS AMERICAN DROUGHT-PROOF PEA Laughs at Drought, Smiles at Rain American Drought-Proof will do well under a wider range of weather and soil conditions than any other variety. It will grow a crop during the driest, hottest summer months, at a time any other variety would be a failure. In the hot, dry localities of the West, this variety will grow a large crop without irrigation and without a single drop of rain falling upon it from seed time to harvest. For midsummer or late summer planting this is the variety to plant. If it rains and the soil is kept moist, this variety will produce as large a crop as any variety we know of; if it doesn't rain, and it gets hot and dry, you will get a crop anyway. The handsome round pods are well filled with from 7 to 10 peas in a pod; quality excellent, sweet and tender, even when the peas are large. Vines grow 2 feet high, and require no support. This is the Pea that will do its best in the North, South, East or West. Don't fail to give it a trial. Pkt. 10c—7 oz. 30c—14 oz. 50c, Postpaid LIMA PEAS Or Frost-Proof Bean The Lima Pea or Frost-Proof Bean is highly esteemed in Europe, and is known there as the Broad Bean. They are not sensitive to cold, so should be planted as early in the spring as possible. The beans are as large as the largest Lima, and nearly the same shape. The flavor is more like peas than beans. Used like the Lima Bean; delicious either cooked fresh or as a winter shell bean. Wonderfully productive. Pkt. 10c—3 Pkts. 25c, Postpaid. Lima Peas.
