WM. HENRY MAULE, PHILADELPHIA, PA. 
When I was in 
England recently I 
took a special trip 
down to Witham, 
in Hssex, to look 
at this pea, believ- 
ing that the tales I had heard about it in London were more 
fairy tales than anything else, as I did not think it possible to 
find a pea that was absolutely from 8 to 10 days earlier than 
any other known variety; but I found that I was mistaken 
and that there was such a pea. Now I want to be perfectly 
candid with my customers, and tell them the great point 
about Velocity is earliness. It resembles very much in size

of peas the small peas that are so popular in Franee, and sold 
as French peas so generally throughout the world. The pods 
contain from four to six peas and are about 3 inches long; 
very prolific, and when you consider that by planting Veloc- 
ity you will have peas 8 to 10 days before Earliest of All, 
Alaska, or any other extra early variety, Iam sure my custo- 
mers will be glad to try it. If Velocity does well here, as I 
am very certain it will, it will be a great pea for canners, be- 
cause it will enable them to put up a class of peas that up to 
the present time have been very difficult to obtain; in other 
words, a pea that will compete with the French peas sold all 
over the country, and for which there is an enormous demand. 
The demand for this pea has been astonishing the past season.

I am most fortunate indeed to be able to offer this great pea called Potlatch or Big { 
I had no idea the demand would be so large or that the pea would be so | 
popular, as it was only about four years old; but it seems to me that every gardener 
who had ever tried Potlatch in small quantities wanted at least a sack or two, so | 
that early in the season the entire crop throughout the whole country was completely 
exhausted. Potlatch is Chenook Indian for Big Dinner, hence the name Potlatch. 
The vines are vigorous, growing 15 to 18 inches high, with unusually dark green 
foliage, which can be distinguished from that of other peas a quarter of a mile away.
