W E have never yet been able to offer to our patrons an early Pea 
which possesses in a marked degree more desirable qualities. 
On both sides of the Atlantic, specialists in Pea culture have been 
struggling with the problem how to combine fine quality and product¬ 
iveness with earliness. It must be conceded that hitherto all these efforts have 
failed, inasmuch as we have only been able to offer for very early use the round 
or hard-shell types of “Extra Early Peas.” These have a value peculiarly their 
own, but the quality is far below what wo would wish. We feel confident that 
at last a variety has been secured which combines earliness with all the 
good features of the later ‘marrow” varieties, viz.: delicious flavor, tender¬ 
ness, sweetness, size and productiveness. 
This variety has had very thorough and exhaustive trials conducted in 
various latitudes and under varied conditions, therefore we have no hesitancy in 
making the most extravagant claims for its merits, which are supported by the 
opinions of expert gardeners. 
“Prosperity” Pea grows about feet in height; the vine is robust, and 
the foliage is large and vigorous, closely resembling Telephone in general appear¬ 
ance, though dwarfer and very much earlier. The pods, which are as large 
as Telephone, are produced in great abundance, and are well filled with 
from six to eight peas of enormous size, but, as we have stated, its chief value 
lies in its earliness, and when we consider that a pea so large and as rich in flavor 
as any of the later wrinkled sorts can be had throe days after Henderson’s First 
of All, the best and earliest round or hard-shell variety, its value can be readily seen. 
Among those who grow peas for their own use exclusively, there are many 
who plant only the extra early types, because our short spring and hot summers 
are not conducive to the free growth of the later varieties. It is to this class of 
growers that we recommend this variety with confidence. They can now obtain 
early in the season, while climatic conditions are favorable, as delicious 
peas as is possible under any conditions in this country or any other.
