PEAS 
EARLY VARIETIES 
There is always a demand for High Quality Peas 
Prolong the production season, by growing early, medium and late varieties 
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 exceptional sorts are added to our list. 
The labor involved in testing and developing new varieties is very expensive; but, it is 
the price that we pay to safeguard the interests, and maintain the implicit confidence of 
our large family of Market Grower Customers.
