August 1899 : grass & clover seeds, seed wheat, oats, rye & barley, vegetable & flower seeds, hyacinths, tulips, lilies, Nursery stock Virginia Richmond Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs; Grasses Seeds Catalogs; Gardening Equipment and supplies Catalogs. GARDEN PEAS. Planted in the fall, are very desirable and profitable for shipping, the home market, and the private garden. In tnis section these sh uld be planted in August, or further South as late as the 20th of September. The following li-t embraces the best varieties for fall planting: Wood's Lightning Excelsior Peas. The quickest growing, hardiest and most profitable of early sorts. Pkt. 5c.; qt. 20 cts.; peck, 85c ; bush., $ Alaska. Very popular in the trucking sections on account of its quick growth and beautiful dark green color cf its peas. Pkt. 5c: qt. 20c ; peck, 75c; bush., $2 40. First and Best. An excellent, quick-growing, smooth pea, bearing well-filled pods very produc tive and popular. Qt. 15c; peck, 702.; bush., $ Large White Marrowfat. The Marrowfat Peas are quite largely planted in December, and usually succeed very well planted at that time, producing their crops much earlier in the spring than if planted at the usual time in February or SPINACH. Spinach makes one of the most desirable winter and spring greens, and is better liked and usually sells at much higher prices than either kale or turnip salad in our mar- ket. Is largely grown for shipping. 'Culture.—For winter and spring use, sow in Sep- tember and October, in drills one inch deep, eighteen inches to two feet between the rows. Requires but little cultivation. One ounce will sow one hundred feet of driil; twenty pounds, one acre. Norfolk Savoy, or Bloomsdale.

Oz. 5c.; % lb- IOC-! lb. 20c.; 10 lbs. and over, 17c. per
