Or 
LONGFELLOW” roscoe BUSH BEAN. 
Long green pods. Exceedingly prolific. Always solid. 
Delicious flavor. Wonderfully tender. Remarkably early. 
Thisis an ideal String Bean. The pods are 614 inches 
long, pale, soft green in color, perfectly straight and 
round. They are free from that woolly inner lining of 
tough skin which we associate with old beans, and 
what little string exists is not developed until the pod 
is quite old. The flavor is most delicious, and it has 
the peculiarity of preserving its delicate color almost 
intact when prepared for the table. It is remarkably 
early, being ready for use four days in advance of any 
variety of merit. Its bearing qualities are unexcelled, 
and it matures its crop very regularly, even under ad- 
verse conditions. (See cut.) lOc. pkt., 20c. pt., 35c. 
qt., $2.00 peck, $7.00 bushel. 
“T take this opportunity of giving you my experience with 
Longfellow Bush Bean. It was sown on the same date with 
Barly Six Weeks and other‘ Earliest’ Beans. I gathered my first 
table beans from the latter but only three days ahead of the 
Longtellow, but from the time of picking first beans from the 
Longtellow everything else has been discarded by Gen. Brown’s 
family, and the only bean they will have on the table is Longtel- 
low. From four rows I have been gathering daily tor three weeks in large quantity, and 
= the vines are still bearing heavily. Iam glad to endorse it; it is the best bean I have

/DWARF WAX PODDED BUTTER BEANS. 
FPLAGEOLET WAX. This is really one of the most valuable | BLACK WAX. When ripe the pods are yellow, averaging 7 inches 
varieties for either private or market garden purposes. It is in length, very tender and of the best quality. Seeds, when ripe, 
as early as either the Black or Golden Wax sorts, and has a glossy black. 10c. pkt., 15c. pt., 25c. qt., $1.40 peck, $4.50 bushel. 
peculiar value in the fact that itis nearly always exempt from 4 sa eR ayy 9 
rust. The pods are often a foot in length, exceedingly succu- fA 4 
lent and tender. It is an enormously productive variety. 
Adc. pkt., 20c. pt., 30c. qt., $1.75 peck, $6.00 bushel. 
GOLDEN-EYED WAX. This isan early and vigorous grow- 
ing variety, yielding a great profusion of tender pods of a 
beautiful waxy appearance. The vine grows about one anda 
half feet high, holding the pods well off the ground, thus keep- 
ing them clean and attractive. It is singularly free from 
blight and rust. The pods are flat and large. 10c. pkt., 15ce. 
pt., 25¢. qt., $1.50 peck, $5.00 bushel. 
REFUGEE WAX. Among green beans, the Refugee type has 
always been most valuable. This wax variety has all the 
peculiar characteristics of the old Refugee, such as small, 
dense foliage, great productiveness, roundness of pod and 
handsome appearance. It will readily be seen that the ad- 
.. vantages gained in producing a wax form of this must be 
great. It produces pods of aclear, transparent color. It re- 
mains tender longer than any other wax sort, and is practi- 
cally ever-bearing. It is free from rust, and its dense habit of 
growth renders it proof against long-continued drought. 
Hon feature is valuable, and this is the only Wax Bean we 
ow of that possesses it. 10c. pkt., 20c. pt., 30c. qt., $1.50 
peck, $5.00 bushel. 
HENDERSON’S IMPROVED BLACK WAX. This is an 
improved stock of the old Black Wax. The plantis strong 
and so vigorous in growth that it effectually repels attacks of 
rust, while its ample foliage so completely shelters the pods 
from the rays of the sun that they are always uniformly of a 
translucent, creamy yellowcolor. It is exceedingly early and 
enormously productive. (See cut.) 10c. pkt., 20c. pt., 30c. qt., 
$1.50 peck, $5.00 bushel. 
White Seeded Wax. A variety with roundish flat wax-like "™XPPRSONS
