AS SOON AS YOU HAVE HERETOFORE HAD THE ORDINARY EARLY KINDS 
T HIS grand, extra early, large-podded, wrinkled marrow Pea—introduced into 
America by us in 1897—has each year steadily increased in popular favor. 
“Once grown it is thereafter indispensable,” is the way one of our customers 
puts it, and it would seem as if every one who plants our Prosperity Pea recom¬ 
mends it to his neighbors. 
The distinctive merits of Henderson’s Prosperity Pea over any other variety are 
its extreme earliness combined with its abundant production of immense pods, 
4 to 4L£ inches in length and nearly round, each filled with from 6 to 10 true, large, 
wrinkled marrow Peas of the most delicious flavor—as large, as sweet and as tender 
as the finest late wrinkled marrow Pea grown. When one considers that Peas of 
this superior 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. 
The vine of Prosperity is of vigorous, robust growth, about 3 feet high, heavy-stemmed 
with luxuriant healthy foliage; it bears uniformly large, handsome pods of large and 
luscious Peas, and although it commences bearing so very early it continues for a long 
time; the Peas also remain sweet and tender for some time after they are fit to pick. 
{See cut.) Price, 15c. pkt., 30c. pt., 55c. qt., $2.00 for four qts., $3.50 pk. 
“ We think your Prosperity Peas are grand and 
everyone that has eaten them thinks so, loo.” 
Miss IDA A. MELLEN, McLean, N. Y. 
“I have planted garden for 23 years and have never 
had such good peas as your Prosperity.” 
NICHOLAS YOUNG, Nisbet, Pa. 
“My Prosperity Peas we began to pick June 17th. 
They are still blooming and bearing {Aug. 8th). Many 
of the vines measure 5 feet. I have picked pods 5 inches 
in length.” 
Prof. J. H. CLARK, Franklin Falls, N. II. 
“I really feel that it is due you to tell you that we 
had our first peas of the season—your Prosperity—for 
dinner on Decoration Day. Our garden has a N. W. 
exposure and the season was dry — notwithstanding this 
their growth was remarkable, and the pods fat and full.” 
Mrs. FRANCIS DARR, Gladstone, N. J. 
“The Prosperity is certainly a fine pea, and very 
early. I had them on the table in just 41 days from 
planting.” W. 0. CHURCH, Wolcott, N. Y. 
“ Your Prosperity Peas proved prolific; the many 
Pods developed a length of 4 A inches, and, when shelled, 
turned out from eight to ten large peas from a pod; they 
were a surprise; the earliest large pea I. ever knew. It 
is the sweetest, tenderest and most delicious pea I ever 
ale.” JAMES R. SLAUSON, Racine, Wis. 
Thomas Laxton Pea 
A FINE NEW EARLY 
WRINKLED MARROW 
A N extra early wrinkled marrow Pea that has proven to be a valuable addition to 
this class. The plant grows about 3 feet high, resembling that of Prosperity, 
though a little darker in color and of vigorous, hardy constitution, enabling 
it to be sown with first earlies, coming in but three or four days later than these 
round hard-shell sorts. It is a heavy and reliable cropper, of uniform, 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, adding to their attractive¬ 
ness when served on the table. Thomas Laxton is a good, reliable Pea, uniformly 
constant to type and about as early as Prosperity, though some report it 3 or 4 days later. 
Price, 15c.’pkt., 30c. pt., 55c. q't., $2.00 for four qts. $3.50 pk. 
“We are just eating the last picking of the Thomas 
Laxton Peas. You are too modest in describing this 
variety. It deserves your best praise. We all agree 
that it is the best and most delicious Pea we have ever 
grown or eaten anywhere. The dark, thick vines loaded 
with pods are very distinct and the pods are so thick 
that the peas remain fresh and in fine table condition 
for a long time, while other varieties suffer and the pods 
dry up with the intense heat.” 
Mrs. WINNIE BROWER, Staunton, Va.
