HENDERSON'S 
PROSPERITY PEA. 
The Earliest and Sweetest 
Wrinkled Marrow Pea Grown! 
The Senator. 
Americans visiting England during “green pea 
season” are delighted with the surpassing quality 
of the English Marrow Peas; appetizing, rich, ten¬ 
der, sweet and siitisfying; once tasted, always re¬ 
membered. Most varieties of these luscious hmglish 
Peas are very exclusive. Having been bred in a 
cool, moist climate, they resent heat and diought. 
Yet, occasionally among our extensive annual trials 
we find a variety that thrives under our American 
conditions. Such a one is The vSenator, which we 
hiU'e grown for three years to further test and ac¬ 
climate it, and now offer it to our patrons with full 
confidence that it will give thorough satisfaction in 
every section where jjeas thrive. 
The Senator Pea grows from 3 to 4 feet high and 
bears a surprisingly large quantity of large, handsome 
pods, filled almost to bursting with great succulent 
peas—as big as small marbles—and of superb qual¬ 
ity ; the sweet buttery flavor of the true English 
Marrow Peas, which quality is maintained even 
through the hot, trying weeks of Julv. 
Price, 15c. pkt.;'30c. pt.; 50c. qt.; $3.50 peck. 
T his grand, extra early, large-podded, 
wrinkled marrow Pea— introduced 
into America by us in 1897— has 
each year increased in jiopular favor, not 
only steadily but with whirlwind rapidity. 
“Once grown it is thereafter indis])cnsable*” 
is the way one of our customers puts it, 
and it would seem as if every one who 
plants our Prosperity Pea recommends it 
to his neighbors, for the demand upon 
us for the seed has annually increased to 
such an extent that we have never yet 
been able to reserve a sufheient supply 
for stock seed ])urposes to allow us to 
catch uj) with the demand. 
The distinctive merits of Henderson’s 
Prosperity Pea over any other variety are 
its extreme earlincss combined with its 
abundant production of immense pods, 
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 2§ 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 thc}' are fit to pick. (See cut.) 
Price, 15c. pkt,, 25c. pt., 46c. qt., $2.60 pk., $9.00 bush. 
PURCHASERS PRAISE PROSPERITY PEAS: 
“ We had your Prosperity Peas last year and thought them the best we had ever eaten,” 
Mrs. W. J. CATES, Island Park, Pa. 
“ The Prosperity is certainly a line pea, and very early. I had them on the table in just 4t 
days from planting.” IF. O. ClIURCII, Wolcott, N. Y. 
” I have beaten my whole neighborhood with my Prosperity Peas.” 
LLOYD M. MAYIjft, Linden Farm, Portsmouth, R. I. 
” We think your Prosperity Peas are grand, and every one that has eaten them thinks so, too.” 
Miss IDA A. MELLEN, McLean, N. Y. 
” Henderson’s Prosperity Peas are most delicious to taste and beautiful to look upon. I 
never saw such peas. Don’t think we shall plant any other hereafter.” 
Mrs. J. E. HI NOLAND, W. Woodstock, Conn. 
“7 really feel that it is due you to tell you that we had our first peas of the sea.son — your Pros¬ 
perity — for dinner on Decoration Day — which we think remarkable considering the dry sirring, 
and the northwest exposure of our garden. 7'he pods were fat and full" 
Mrs. FRANCES DARR, Gladstone, N.J. 
“7 had a full crop of Prosperity Peas in exactly JjS days from planting last spring, and, 
unlike the usual ‘ Extra Early,’ they were as full, urinkled, and sweet as any late pea I ever tasted, 
bett^ than even the Champion of England, which has always been my ’hobby.’ They are all you 
claim, and in future I do not intend to plant any other kind.” 
CHARLES W. EOWMAN, lirownsiille. Pa. 
“ Your Prosperity Peas proved prolific; the many pods developed a length of 4 H 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 ate.” 
JAMES R. SLAUSON, Racine, Wis.
