A STERLING NOVELTY FOR 1922 



NEW GARDEN PEA 



Admiral Beatty 



THE BEST SECOND EARLY— THE ATTRACTIVE PODS CONTAIN EIGHT TO 

 TEN PEAS OF DELICIOUS QUALITY 



We have great pleasure in recommending this 1922 novelty, which has been named in honor of 

 Britain's great naval hero, Admiral Beatty, whose picture we show below. 



This variety has been subjected to exhaustive trials which have made its great merit_ fully 

 apparent. The "Admiral Beatty" garden pea was obtained by crossing the well-known varieties, 

 Gradus and Alderman, and the result is a pea in which the good points of both parents are combined. 

 It takes its place naturally in the second early class, and pickings are usually made about ten days 

 after Henderson's Prosperity Peas are ripe. Everybody will be pleased with the heavy crop borne 

 by the sturdy vines, which grow to a height of four feet, and with the flavor and quality of the eight 

 to ten large peas contained in the 

 long pointed pods. The stock of 

 seed we can offer this year is very 

 limited, so orders should be sent in 

 early. Price, 50c. pkt. 



HENDERSON'S 



American 

 Champion Pea 



Enormous Pods Packed with Peas 



Unsurpassed Quality Rich Color 

 Fine Flavor 



American Champion is one of 

 the very best selections of the 

 Telephone type. We have offered 

 this variety for many years, and it 

 has always given thorough satis- 

 faction, particularly in the private 

 garden. 



The varieties of this class are all 

 distinguished by their extra large 

 pods, which are always liberally 

 filled with Peas of great size and of 

 particularly good flavor. It does 

 not come into use until near the 

 end of the season and, as it grows 

 from 4 to 5 feet high, the vines 

 need some support, but it well 

 repays both the waiting and the 

 extra labor, for, properly cared for, 

 it tears an extrernely_ bountiful 

 crop of the most delicious Peas. 

 (See engraving.) Price, 15c. pkt., 

 45c. pt., 80c. qt., $3.00 iot}4 peck, 

 $5.50 peck. 

 "Henderson's American Champion Peas were wonderful. I never had anything 

 to equal them. They were loaded with large pods containing 8 to 10 peas of fine flavor, 

 I enclose a photo of the rows." GEORGE E. HILL, 



East Bangor, Pa. 



"The American Champion Peas I had from you last year were surely the best 

 I ever grew.'; ' ' ' S. L. NELSO N, Bowdoinham, Me. 



Champion of England Pea 



One of the Best Flavored of all Peas 

 Provides deUcious Peas until cut down by frost 



This old favorite rightly maintains its prominent place on 

 account of its distinctly superb quality. The heavy vines, height 

 five feet, require ample support. It is one of the last varieties to 

 mature, and as a farewell to the Pea season furnishes the table 

 with a bountiful supply of wrinkled Peas that are noted for their 

 tenderness and rich, marrow-like flavor. The pods are medium in 

 size, but are produced in abundance and are always well filled. It 

 is ready to use early in July, a period of great heat. To protect 

 from heat and drought, make a trench on each side of the row, soak 

 thoroughly, and when drained, fill with dry soil. Cover with a 

 mulch of loose manure, avoiding too close contact with the vines. 

 Price, 15c, pkt., 45c. pt., 80c. qt., $3.00 for 4 qts., $S-5o peck. 



"I picked Champion of England Peas that I bought from you last year seven feet 

 from the ground. We had delicious Peas until frost."
