 advantage of marketing his produce so much earlier than those who do not grow it. 

 It is also exceedingly productive. The vines are vigorous and dwarf, about 23^ 

 feet in height. Another important feature: the entire crop can be gathered at one 

 picking and every trucker will realize the economy in labor in growing such a pea. 

 Moreover, the stock which we are sending out to-day is superior, constant selection 

 has enabled us to eliminate every undesirable feature. Price, 2 lbs. 60c,

"/ picked my first crop from your First of All Peas, the last day of May and had them plowed up and 

 the field planted with Succession Cabbage before anyone around here had started picking peas. It was the 

 heaviest yield 1 ever saw, too." B. F. CROSTIE, Harvard, III. 



Jubilant, Henderson's 



Jubilant is an early pea and is not much later than Prosperity or Thomas Laxton 

 if sown at the same time. However, being a semi-wrinkled variety, seed may be 

 sown earlier than seed of Prosperity or Thomas Laxton, and therefore a crop can be 

 matured and marketed sooner than a crop of either of the other varieties mentioned. 

 The vines grow ZYi to 4 ft. high and are very vigorous, producing heavy crops of 

 large dark green pods well suited for the market. The vigorous constitution of the 

 plant makes it practically immune to blight and consequently the production of 

 peas is extended over a long period. (See engraving.) Price, 2 lbs. 70c, 

 15 lbs. $3.50, (Bush.) 60 lbs. $12.00. 



For Market Gardeners 



now offer Peas by weight, smooth varieties 60 lbs. per Bushel, wrinkled 

 varieties 56 lbs. per Bushel. 



The varieties of Peas offered on this and the following pages represent the 

 highest developments in this delicious vegetable — the best efforts of our own 

 plant breeders, and those of the leading European hybridizers. They are the 

 cream of the many hundreds of varieties that have found their way to the 

 market. 



Scores of new varieties are tested at our Trial Grounds yearly, but the 

 Henderson Standard of Perfection is so rigid that only very exceptional sorts 

 are added to our list. 



The labor involved in testing and developing new varieties is very expen- 

 sive; but, it is the price that we are obliged to pay to safeguard the interests, 

 and maintain the implicit confidence of our large family of Market Garden 

 Customers.
