The introducers, Messrs. N. B. Keeney & Son, prominent NewYork pea growers, thus speak of it: Several years ago the writerselected a very productive plant of an extra early pea, having anexceptionally long pod.

Our tests of this pea showed it to blossomtwo days later than our earliest and best strain of Extra Early,and in the development of pods suitable for picking, 3 or 4 daysbehiuil; but of remarkable productiveness, giving a jield of 30 to50 per cent, more pods than any other strain of extra earlies weknow of. A desirable extra early sort for home or market gardeners. Packet, 10 cts.; pint, 30 cts.; quart, 50 cts., postpaid. By expressor freight, not prepai
