HENDERSON'S EARLIEST RED 

 VALENTINE BEAN. 



While there are several varieties of 

 Dwarf or Bush Beans that are ear'ier 

 than the standard sort known as the 

 Early Red Valentine, yet the old favor- 

 ite possesses so many advantages over 

 really earlier varieties, that it is much 

 more largely grown than these — this, 

 too, by men growing for market, with 

 whom earliness in Vegetables is alwaj s 

 the first consideration. So that in offer- 

 ing a new variety that retains all the 

 best features of the Early Valentine with 

 the advantage of being at least ten days 

 earlier, we feel certain we are tendering a 

 variety that will promptly receive the 

 appreciation it deserves.

EARLIEST BED 



VALENTINE BEAN. 



Copyright, 1884. 



DWARF MONT D'OR 

 BEAN. 



This is claimed to be the earliest of 

 the Dwarf wax varieties. The vine is 

 stout and vigorous, and is profusely 

 laden with yellow colored pods. The 

 seeds in the dry state are almost black, 

 and nearly round. (See cut.) 



15 cts. per pkt. ; fiO cts. per qt.; 

 $4.00 per peck. 



WONDEK OF FKANCE BEAN. 



WONDER OF FRANCE BEAN. 



Probably the best of the newer dwarf French varieties. It is 

 very early, and produces large quantities of long straight pods 

 of the shape shown in the illustration. The leaves fall off just 

 before the maturity of the pods; causing the latter to ripen very 

 quickly. The beans are of a bright green color, retaining their 

 fresh appearance when cooked. 



15 cts. per pkt.; 00 cts. per qt. ; $4.00 per peck. 



SOUTHERN PROLIFIC POLE BEAN. 



A very desirable sort, much better known, and therefore more 

 fully appreciated in the South than in other parts of the 

 country. The pods are borne in clusters; and as it is fit for 

 the table in 70 days, its rapid growth produces pods brittle and 

 tender. 



50 cts. per qt.; $3.50 per peck. 



I bought a package of White Plume Celery seed last spring, and am highly pleased with the variety.
