Prosperity or Gradus 



The Earliest, Largest Podded, Wrinkled Pea 



Prosperity or Gradus Is a ■vrrinkled pea, with vine growing about 30 inches high. 

 It requires no sticlis or brush, though sliclis may be used If preferred. The peas 

 are freely borne, and remain In good condition for a number of days. The pods 

 are of a dark green color, and measure 4 inches or more in length, being as large 

 as Telephone, and equally well filled with luscious peas — 8 to 10 or more in a pod. 

 The peas themselves are of first-flass table quality, and retain their color and 

 attractive appearance after cooking. The peas are round and plump, maturing 

 In 52 days. It is entirely adapted to the purposes of the market gardener, and 

 does equally as well In the home garden.

Thomas Laxton 



The Rival of the Famous Prosperity or Gradus, ivlth Giant Pods 



It grows like Gradus about 3 feet high. The wrinkled peas are very large of fine, 

 deep green color. The pods are large, long, with square ends and fine color. Many 

 market gardeners have planted the Thomas Laxton in preference to Gradus, to 

 their entire satisfaction. Our opinion of Thomas Laxton is that it is as early as 

 Gradus, maturing in 52 days; at thesame time it is, if anything, more productive; 

 peas are fully as large, of a richer green color. Planted sideby side, it is frequently 

 a hard matter to tell which is the better of the two varieties. 



Packet, 10 cents; half pound, 80 cents; pound, 55 cents, postpaid.
