HENDERSON'S TESTED SEEDS FOR MARKET GARDENERS.

TELEPHONE PEA. 



One of the oldest varieties grown. It has been on the market 

 for nearly forty years, and is better today than ever. The plant 

 is about five feet high, and bears a heavy crop of large, even sized 

 pods, well filled with peas of delicious quality; rich, tender, and most 

 attractive in appearance. Our stock is remarkably free from small 

 podded plants, and is far superior to that ordinarily sold under 

 this name. (See engraving.) Price, 30c. qt., $1.90 peck, S7.00 bush. 



" Enclosed I send a photo of your Telephone and American Champion Peas. These 

 peas are more than seven feet high. They are straight up, and I expect to picklhemnext 

 ■week. (It is now July 17th, which is breaking the record in this vicinity. 



"I am proud to recommend your house for good record-breaking seeds." 

 July 17th, 1915. CAMILLE WEYN, Chester, Orange Co., N. Y. 



" Henderson's Telephone Peas have the largest pods and every pod is full of large 

 peas. Such peas have never been raised in this country. Everybody that has had them 

 wants them again." 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." GEORGE SELAKE, Clinton, Cl. 



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 are retained for several 

 Mays, rendering this variety especially desirable for Market Garden- 

 ers who ship their products. Price, 30c. qt., $1.90 peck, $7.00 bush. 



THE AMEER, 



or " Mammoth Alaska " Pea. 



This new variety — often called 

 the " Mammoth Alaska " is 

 rapidly growing in favor among 

 Market Gardeners 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 con- 

 taining from 5 to 7 large blue- 

 green round peas of excellent 

 quality. The crop ripens uni- 

 formly about three days later 

 than Alaska. (See engraving.) 

 Price, 25c. qt., $1.70 pk., $6.00 

 bush. 



" I am sending you a sample of your 

 large Ameer Peas. I wish you would take 

 a photo of them and print in your catalogue. 

 They are the largest peas I ever grew, and 

 ahead of everything else for earliness and 

 productiveness." 

 June 9th, 1915.

Thomas Laxton Pea. 



An extra early, wrinkled Marrow Pea of 

 great merit. It grows about 3 feet high, 

 resembling Prosperity, though a little 

 darker in color and of vigorous, hardy 

 constitution,- enabling it to be planted with 

 first earliest, coming in only three or four 

 days later than those round, hard-shell 

 sorts. It produces a heavy crop of long, 

 straight, square-ended, dark green pods, 

 which are well filled with 7 to 8 large, 

 rich-flavored, wrinkled marrow peas, which 

 are also of a deep green color; a good re- 

 liable pea, uniformly constant type and 

 about as early as Prosperity. We are sure 

 that this pea will become one of the best 

 and most popular varieties for market gar- 

 deners on account of its earliness, produc- 

 tiveness, handsome appearance and quality. 

 Price, 35c. qt., $2.25 pk., $8.00 bush.
