 faction. The entire 

 crop can be had in a

 V AMERIC-W CHAMPIOX PE.4..— Long green podded; heavy 

 ylelder. The number of testimonials we received favorable 

 to the American Champion Pea only confirms the high opin-

 of Peas, enormously productive, and its flavor and quality 

 closely approach that of the well-known Champion of Eng- 

 land; "pods produced in pairs are well filled, containing from 

 9 to 12 large fine Peas; of branching habit; should be sown 

 thinly. Height, iVz feet.
