 can variety. The pods, though of medium size, are literally

" / wish to speak especially of Horsford's 

 Market Garden Pea. The vines are lilerally 

 covered with pods of uyiiform size and well 

 filled. WILBUR P. FISH, Bath. N. Y. 



ADVANCER PEA. 



A reliable second early green 

 Pea, just following the first earlies 

 it is of healthy, compact growth, 

 about 2i feet high, bearing in 

 great abundance medium-sized 

 pods, but compactly filled with 

 dark green-colored, large wrinkled 

 peas, so tender, sweet and finely 

 flavored that this variety is often 

 known as the Dwarf Champion. 

 Price, 30c, qt., $1.90 pk., $7.00 

 bush. 



Henderson's Dwarf Early Pea 



Melting Marrow. 



Henderson's Melting Marrow 



Pea is early, following immediately 

 after the extra early sorts, thus 

 filling in the gap between these 

 and the midsummer varieties, 

 though by successive sowings Mel- 

 ting Marrow Peas may be long 

 enjoyed. 



The plants are of robust, half- 

 dwarf habit, growing about 15 

 inches high, with sturdy branch- 

 ing stalks that are practically self- 

 supporting, so that brush is not 

 essential. The massive pods are 



produced in prodigal abundance from ground to sum- 

 mit, and are packed from with six to eight immense 

 wrinkled Marrow Peas of a rich green color, which 

 hue is maintained when cooked, thus appearing 

 especially attractive when served, while the de- 

 licious quality and superb rich flavor is unequalled 

 by any Pea of American origin. Price, 40c. qt., 

 $2.75 pk., $10.00 bush. 



" / am pleased to tell you that Melting Marrow proved the best 

 dwarf pea I have ever grown, and I have tried a great many during 

 my gardening experience of 59 years. The flavor was good and the 

 yield enormous." CH AS J. FOX, South London, Ont., Can. 



ALDERMAN PEA. 



One of the very best early main crop peas of the Telephone 

 type. The vigorous healthy vines grow about 5 feet in height 

 and are very productive of large, long, dark green pods — often 

 over five inches in length — and packed with deep green wrinkled 

 peas of the largest size and of unsurpassed quality. The rich 

 dark green color and handsome appearance of pods and peas 



is retained for several days, ren- 

 dering this variety especially de- 

 sirable for Market Gardeners 

 who ship their products. Price, 

 35c. qt., $2.50 pk., Sg.OO^^bush."^ 



NOTT'S EXCELSIOR PEA. 



This is an extra early dwarf wrinkled Pea, usually ready 

 for table in 40 to 45 days from planting. It grows about 14 

 inches high. It is of vigorous constitution, and wonderfully 

 productive. The even, regular habit of the plant is also a 

 great advantage, particularly to market growers. Nott's 

 Excelsior has not only come to stay, but will eventually 

 supersede many sorts of like character. {See cut.) Price, 

 30c. qt., $2.25 pk., $8.50 bush. 



The Nott's Excelsior Peas I bought from you last spring did very well 

 indeed. The crop was a bountiful one, and the vines bore pods froin early 

 in July until frost. I am much pleased with the variety." 



JAMES F. BURKE, Canton St., North Boston, Mass. 



TELEPHONEI 

 PEA. 



A strong, luxuriant-growing 

 main crop variety, attaining a 

 height of about 41 feet. It is ex- 

 ceedingly prolific averaging 18 

 pods to the stalk, while .up to 24 

 to the stalk is not uncommon- 

 The pods, the largest of all va- 

 rieties, are packed with immense 

 wrinkled marrow peas, 6 to 8 being 

 the average, while 10 to 12 to a 

 pod are frequently found. The 

 quality is superb, rich, sugary 

 and tender. For family use the 

 Telephone Pea is without a peer. 

 {See cut.) Price, 35c. qt., $2.50 pk. 

 $9.00 bush. 



" Henderson's Telephone Peas have the 

 largest pods and almost every pod is full 

 of extra large peas. Such peas have never 

 been raised tn this country. Everybody that 

 has had them want them again another 

 i'«<"'- J. F. HINDS. Cloar, Ark. 



Your Telephone is the finest pea we 

 ever planted. They grew over 6 feet high 

 and had 22 to 26 pods to a vine. Our call 

 for these peas is so much that we cannot 

 supply all of our customers."
