TIjo introducer describes it as follows: 

 "This very desirable pea grows to a 

 uniform height of one foot. Remarkably 

 hardy and productive, besides being ear- 

 lier than ail the wrinkled peas, it has 

 been impartially tested the past six years 

 in various sections of the United States 

 and Canada. It is so hardy and vigorous 

 I hat it may be safely |)lanted in early 

 spring Willi any smoolli variety, and 

 counted on for table use almost as soon, 

 wliile tile quality is far superior. During 

 the eight years that I have been develop- 

 ing these peas, they never failed to be 

 well matured for table use within f;fty 

 days from planting, witli ordinary garden 

 culture. Pod,s large, with from five to 

 seven large peas in a pod. Very tender 

 and fine flavored."
