 Gentlemen:— I was more than 

 pleased with the Bean Seeds shipped 

 me last November. While others 

 were getting low prices, I was re- 

 ceiving the top of the market. I 

 was one of the few that Beans did 

 not rust on. Thanks for dealing 

 with a first class house. 



Yours truly,

 in our settlement. You are my 

 seed man AL WA YS.

BOLGIANO'S NEW BEAN NO. 18. 



1018. This wonderful new round, meaty, green podded bean had for its parents two separate and distinct stocks of Thoroughbred Hopkins Im- 

 proved Earliest Red Valentine Beans and the inbreeding of their stocks has produced an Extremely Early and most prodigiously productive Stock 

 of beautiful deep green, round podded Valentine Beans. The Flavor and Quality cooked and treated side by side with 50 other leading varieties 

 proved the No. 18, to be by far the most delicious and tender. 



_We have been experimenting with No. 18 Bean for three years and we can unreservedly recommend it as the greatest new production in the way 

 of Green Podded Beans in the last 10 years. Being an extremely new stock it is free from the faults that accumulate around stocks that have been 

 on the marketfor a few years. We have succeeded in getting the type thoroughly fixed and we are willing to say that you will hardly find one off 

 vinein anacreofNo. 18. If you want the most productive, the most beautiful, the most salable and the best market or shipping crop of round green 



Sodaed beans you have ever raised; by all means plant a patch of Bolgiano's No. 18.— The Coming leader Among Beans. PacKet 10c. Pint 20c. 

 uaxt 35c. 2 Quarts 65c. Gallon $1.25. PecK $2.25. 1/2 Bushel $4.00, Bushel $8.00.

Two years having passed since we first introduced this prolifie Early 

 bean it has already become an indispensible variety with many of our 

 customers. It is remarkably early, exceedingly prolific and its extra 

 large finely shaped straight dark green pods are always solid, tender and 

 of a delicious flavor and borne in great abundance. It is a mostexcellent 

 shipping bean, carrying in fine shape for many days after it is picked. 

 Some of our customers have also tried it as a late bean with astonishing 

 results; they were so well pleased with it as an Early bean they wanted 

 more of them and therefore experimented successfully with them in the 

 Fall. The stock is perfect; the plants are of a strong robust habit and 

 mature the crop very regularly. If you do not already grow "The May 

 Queen" you should certainly give it a trial this season. PKts. 10c.

EARLY LEVIATHAN 



P0LEJJUMJEM. 



ONE WEEK EARLIER THAN ANY OTHER POLE LIMA. AND 

 TWO WEEKS EARLIER THAN MOIT. OF SUPERIOR 

 QUALITY. IMMENSE SIZE. WONDERFULLY PRODUCTIVE. 



1040. The best variety of Pole Limafor general use. This delicious vege- 

 table is denied many would-be growers on account of the length of 

 season required to mature it, the early frost coming on just as the crop 

 is ready to pick. This sort is at least one week earlier than any large 

 Pole Lima yet offered and fully two weeks earlier than most, conse- 

 quently it will prove a boon to thousands of growers. Earliness is often 

 obtained at a sacrifice of other valuable features, but in this variety we 

 claim superiority, not only in this respect, but in size of bean and pod 

 and enormous productiveness. It is in fact about perfect and incalcu- 

 lable value. Price, PRt. 10c. Pt. 20c. Qt. 35c. PK. $2.00. Bu. $7.00. 



Although we introduced this splendid bean several years ago, its great 

 popularity increases from year to year and its excellent qualities are so 

 much appreciated by many of our oldest customers, we have decided to 

 list it here again amongst our specialties so that our newer customers 

 may have it drawn more prominently to their attention and enjoy with 

 the rest of us its unusually good qualities. The Emerald Beauty is a flat 

 green podded bush bean, a prolific and continuous bearer, the first in 

 Spring and the last in Fall. It is absolutely stringless, very tender and 

 delicious flavor. The plant is of remarkably handsome and thrifty 

 growth. The rich green pods are of immmese size, thick, broad, extra 

 long very uniform in shape, solid, meaty and of high quality. Market 

 that will accept a flat podded bean will soon appreciate the surpassing 

 qualities of the Emerald Beauty and even if your market wants a round 

 podded bean exclusively, plant some of the "May Queen" beans for your 

 own home use and enjoyment. PRt. 10c Pt. l5c. Qt. 25c Gal. 75c. 

 PecK $1.35. Bushel $5.00. 



- GIANT STRINGLESS 

 GREEN POD VALENTINE 

 BUSH BEAN. 



This is a great improvement on the old time popular favorite Valen- 

 tine Bean. The pods are fully one-third longer, averaging 5 to 6 inches 

 in length; absolutely stringless; very crisp, round, full and fleshy. It is 

 enormously productive, its handsome pods being ready for market a few 

 days earlier than the old time Valentine. We confidently recommend it 

 either for the home garden or as a profitable varietv to grow for market.
