There are a dozen strains of early peas of- fered by as many differ- ent seedsmen with their names attached, but we have failed to find one any earlier, more even in size of pod and date of maturity, or of greater productiveness than our Strain of Alaska. Most of the early varieties of- ered are inferior to the Alaska and none superi- or. It differs from most early peas in having green seed. The peas ma- ture so evenly that they can be picked in one picking. It is a profita- ble market variety and excellent for home use. ALASKA PEA. See prices next page. HEROINE PEA. This is one of the best medium early peas we have yet grown. The vines are strong and vigorous, growing about three feet high. The pods, which are produced in great abundance, are very large, being often five inches long, and well filled with large wrinkled peas, which, when cooked, are of the very best quality, sweet and delicious. We advise everyone who wants a really good pea to sow at least a quart of the Heroine. See prices next page. JUNO" PEA. "JUNO" PEA. This is a magnificent large " main crop" pea, growing only about two feet high, so that it does not require sup- ports. The pods are verxj large and filled right out to the tip with large, dark-green peas, which are very sweet and tender The vines are very prolific and continue in bear- ing a long time. Season medium to late. This is one o the very best peas for home use or market. The pods are better filled and the vines are more prolific than any other variety we have grown. Don't fail to have a long row of them.
