Henderson s HEROINE PEA 
VERY PROLIFIC, PEAS LAKGE, OFTEN 10, SOMETIMES 
12 TO APOD FAIRLY MELTING IN 
YOUR MOUTH FROM SWEETNESS 
H EROINE is a medium early, green wrinkled Pea, 
combining quantity and quality in a degree sur¬ 
passed by no other variety. It grows uniformly 
about l x /2 feet high, and is literally covered with its long, 
heavy, pointed pods. In the cut we show the size and 
form of the Peas, which come 8 to 10 in a pod. The quality 
of this Pea is simply perfection—that rich, buttery, mar¬ 
row-like flavor for which the Peas grown in the gardens 
of Old England are celebrated. ( See cut.) Price, 10 c. pkt., 
25c. pt., 40c. qt., $1.50 for four qts., $2.75 pk. 
This is the first year I have drown your Heroine Pea and I think 
it is a wonder. Miss Rich asked me to send them some nice peas for 
some special occasion. I sent the Heroine, and I was sent for to give 
them the name of the peas—they were so relished. They do well as a 
second crop and are long-bearing." HENRY KEN WARD, 
Stamford, Conn. 
JUNO PEA 
A DWARF MAIN CROP WRINKLED MARROW PEA 
ENORMOUSLY PROLIFIC SUPERB FLAVOR 
J UNO Pea we esteem highly. It is a main-crop va¬ 
riety, of vigorous constitution, which shows itself 
in the strong, handsome, branching plant. It is 
2 feet in height, requiring little or no brushing, and pro¬ 
duces an abundance of the finest Peas possible, the vines 
being actually laden with pods. These are dark green, 
stout and heavy, containing from 7 to 9 Peas of the finest 
quality, which so thoroughly fill the pod as to make it 
almost cylindrical in shape. The Peas possess the 
admirable merit of preserving their tenderness and 
superb flavor long after they are young, and also re¬ 
tain their attractive dark green color when served. 
Price, 10c. pkt., 25c. pt., 45c. qt., $1.60 for four qts., 
$3.00 pk. 
" Your Juno Peas deserve all of the praise you give them and more. 
The sturdy vines are loaded with well-filled pods so well protected from 
the sun by luxuriant dark green foliage—that the peas keep in fresh con¬ 
dition for the table for a long lime even when other peas have dried up 
from the heat. Their season of bearing is long and their flavor deli¬ 
cious.” Mrs. R. II. EMERSON, 322 W. Main St., Jackson, Mich. 
CHINESE 
GIANT PEPPER

riety average 12 to 15 inches

standing the immense sizeof the fruits, 
it is very early and prolific; the 
stocky, well-branched plants, about 
2 feet high, carry so many Peppers 
that in places they seem bunched 
together. The flesh is thick, tender, 
mild, sweet and unexcelled when 
sliced as salad, or for stuffing for 
“Mangoes.’’ When ripe the surface 
is of a brilliant glossy scarlet. (See 
cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 50c. oz., $1.50
