 lent wrinkled pea, with sturdy vine growing 

 only about two feet hjgli. It is vigorous, 

 productive and satisfactory. Each seed, as a 

 rule, produces two stalks, and thus gives am-

 are of extra large size, often measuring five 

 inches in length, and are always well filled, 

 frequently containing ten peas to the pod. 

 The flavor Is flrst-class. Pkt., lOc; pt., 30c.;

SHROPSHIRE HERO This superb wrinkled 



pea is one of my great leaders, and 1 do not think 

 there is a better late variety now under general 

 cultivation. It attains a height of about 2^2 feet, 

 and is esteemed for good quality and productive- 

 ness. The pods are long, handsome and wonder- 

 fully well filled, and are produced in great abund- 

 ance. The peas are of unusually large size and de- 

 licious flavor; eight to ten to the pod. I am greatly 

 pleased with the behavior of Shropshire Hero in 

 my trial grounds, in comparison with all other va- 

 rieties, and feel that it cannot be overpraised as a 

 standard medium or late sort for the table, for can- 

 ning or for market purposes. Pkt., 10 cts.; pt.,
