HENDERSON'S PROSPERITY PEA. 
HIENDERSONS PROSPERITY or GRADUS | 
THE EARLIEST LARGE WRINKLED OR MARROW PEA | 
This grand, extra early, large-podded wrinkled Marrow Pea— 
introduced into America by us in 1897—has, each year, increased 
in popular favor, not only steadily but with whirlwind rapidity. 
This variety, is now indispensable for an early crop. It is 
quite distinct; no other large-podded sort ripens so early; and 
at any season, early or late, its quality and appearance insure 
ready sales. Our stock is a little larger-podded than those 
ordinarily sold, of great vigor, and free from small pods. When 
one considers that peas of this supe1ior size and quality are 
ready for picking only a day or two later than the little round- 
seeded hard-shell ‘‘ Extra Earlies,’’ one realizes what a valuable 
- acquisition our Prosperity Pea really is, 3 feet. (See cut.) 
Price, 35c. qt., $2.25 pk., $8.00 bush. 
“ Please send me at once—of your Prosperity Peas for my second planting. 
My first was the finest I ever grew and there was no limit to the demand.” 
GEO. W. LATELIES,, Madison, Wis. 
“My Prosperity Peas are ahead of all in this community.

BENDERSONS FIRS |: @F ALL PEA. 
Its first important feature is its extreme earliness, ensuring to 
the trucker the 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 at once 
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, 
such as small double pods, irregularity in height, and weak 
spindling habit, which forms so large a part of the crop of many 
so-called ‘‘ First Earlies.’’ (See cut.) Price, 30c. qt., $1.90 pk., 
$7.00 bush. 
“ Your First of All Peas are reel? named for they were way ahead of all other 
varieties we have ever tried.’ B.F. CARPENTER, West Duluth, Minn. 
NOTTS 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., $2.20 
pk., $8.00 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 from early in July until frost. 
I am much pleased with the variety.” 
JAMES F. BURKE, Canton St., North Easton, Mass.
