PRIDE OF 

 THE MAR- 

 KET. This ex- 

 cellent variety 

 has probably 

 found more fa- 

 vor with the 

 market garden- 

 ers of Philadel- 

 phia and else- 

 where than any 

 other variety of 

 recent introduc- 

 tion. Its pro- 

 ductiveness and 

 reliability as a 

 cropper have 

 been most thor- 

 oughly tested 

 and proven, and 

 the satisfaction 

 it has given to all 

 who have had it 1 

 under cultiva- 

 tion is some- 

 thing wonder- 

 ful. It bears fine 

 pods, well filled 

 with deliciously 

 flavored peas of 

 handsome ap- 

 pearance. It is 

 robust in consti- 

 tution, and the 

 peas have a most 

 beautiful ap- 

 pearance and 

 agreeable flavor. 

 They require no sticks, and are the best variety to plant, espe- 

 cially where space is limited. We particularly recommend 

 it to all, whether for private use or market. Height of vine, 

 about 2 feet. Per pkt., 5 cts.; pint, 25 cts.; quart, 50 cts., post-
