In our Pea Trials, it was ready for picking before any of the other extra early varieties and the quality all that could be asked for in a smooth extra early Pea. The vines were very dwarf, growing only 12 to 15 inches in height and loaded with the well filled pods, which were quite large in size for so early a variety. The pods should be picked from vines while they are in a young state of growth, at which time the peas are exceedingly tender and of a most delicious flavor.

'The President' Pea 702 Here is a new introduction of outstanding quality, and which, we are sure will be well received by our many customers. 'The President' produces a vine 20 or 22 inches high, strong and vigorous, and rich dark green in color, bearing straight dark green pods in profusion which measure 4J to 4\ inches in length, always well filled with sweet flavored Peas. Peas are ready for picking in about 68 or 70 days and therefore it is a most valuable sort to plant along with Laxtons Progress, which can be picked 7 or 8 days earlier. A trial pound or two will return a very profitable crop. 15 cts.; i- lb.
