DWA^F G^EEfl PODDED. 



HENDERSON'S 



EARLIEST 

 RED— 



Valentine. 



THE STANDARD GREEN PODDED DWARF SNAP BEAN. 



Fully 10 days earlier Han the old popular Valentine. 



ready for picking in 45 days from planting. Yields 

 prodigiously. Fill round meaty pods of unsur- 

 passed tenderness and quality, 



This variety is at least 10 days earlier than the 

 Early Bed Valentine, and is usually ready to 

 pick in 45 days from time of planting. On account 

 of its great earliness it is largely grown by market 

 gardeners, but, except in the characteristic of extreme 

 earliness, it differs in no other way from the Early Red 

 Valentine described below. By a competitive test made 

 by one of the highest authorities on the subject in this coun- 

 try, Henderson's Earliest Red Valentine was proven lobe 

 ten days earlier than any other stock. Sold only in sealed 

 packages. (See cut.) 10c. pkt., 20c. pt., 35c. qt., $2.00 

 peck, $7.00 bushel. 



HENDERSON'S CREAJVI VflliEflTIflE. 



Distinctly superior to its parent, the Early Red Val- 

 entine. The plant is considerably larger, though it may 

 be planted at exactly the same distance. 



The pods are borne in enormous quantities close to the 

 centre of the plant, and are not only longer, but much 

 thicker and more meaty than any of this type; stringless. Another 

 advantage which will recommend it to all is that the beans retain 

 their tenderness much longer than in any other variety we know of. (See 

 cut.) 15c. pkt , 25c. pt., 40c. qt., $2.25 peck, $8.00 bushel. 



HENDERSON'S BLACK VALENTINE. 



HENDERSON'S 



CBEAM 



VALENTINE. 



Possesses all the merits of our old favorite Valentine, and, in addition, has other valuable 

 points. The pod is fully one-third longer than the Red Valentine. The pods are perfectly round 

 and straight, without any "saddle-back," and of a beautiful 

 soft green color. 



It is also equally early, but has an- 

 other advantage in that it is more suit- 

 able for late planting. In a test of the 

 Extra Early Refugee, Hen- 

 derson's Earliest Red Valen- 

 tine and Black Valentine, 

 conducted in the fall, we 

 found that Black Valentine 

 was fully as useful as Extra 

 Eai-ly Befugee, being equally 

 as hardy in every respect as 

 the Befugee, while the beans 

 were produced in enormous 

 quantities. For any purpose, or at 

 any time of the year, this bean will be found 

 exceedingly valuable to all classes of grow- 

 ers. 15c. pkt., 25c. pt., 40c. qt., $2.75 

 peck, $10.00 bushel.
