FereUSOn S Benefactor. — We feel confident that every Market Gardener who grows this new variety will agree that 
1 cigusuii o Benefactor thoroughly deserves its name, as pods are borne in pairs at every joint where 
hitherto, in other large-podded early peas, but single pods were obtainable. It grows about 2H to 3 feet in height is of dark ereen 
color, and produces long pods, similar to Gradus, that contain from 8 to 10 large Peas of a most delicate and' superior flavor

peas and of extremely sweet flavour. The
