HENDERSON'S TESTED SEEDS FOR MARKET GARDENERS. 



Henderson's Selected Peas 



For Market Gardeners 



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

 varieties 56 lbs. per Bushel. 



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

 but the Henderson Standard of Perfection is so rigid that only very excep- 

 tional 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.

extreme ear- 

 liness, ensuring to the trucker the 

 advantage of marketing his pro- 

 duce so much earlier than those 

 who do not grow it. It is also 

 exceedingly productive. The vines 

 are vigorous and dwarf, about 2J^ 

 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

This variety — often called the "Mammoth Alaska" is being planted on 

 an extensive scale on many of the largest truck farms. It resembles Alaska, 

 the vine being more 

 vigorous, a little taller 

 or about 3 feet in height 

 and the pods and peas 

 are fully one-third larger. 

 It is a heavy producer 

 of handsome dark green 

 pods containing from 5 

 to 7 large blue-green 

 round peas of excellent 

 qualit y. The crop ripens 

 uniformly about three 

 days later than Alaska.
