PEAS. 



Owing to tlie difficulty in tlireshing the peas with our maehine, the table does not 

 show the actual yield. The comparison, however, is approximately correct. 



In 1912, when crops were so affected by early frost, the Arthur pea was the only 

 one of the varieties that came to maturity sufficiently to be fit for seed the following 

 spring. Besides being early it is ojie of the highest yieldors.
