HOPKIN'S EARLIEST RED VALENTINE BEANS. 



-(Continued.) 



/' 



Are the earliest and most prolific round green podded Beans that have ever been 

 placed in the grower's hands. We secured this very superior stock, from a farmer in 

 the State of New York, by name of Hopkins, who, after years of greatest effort and de- 

 termination, produced what he has since termed Hopkm's Valentines. It comes into 

 bearing earlier than the old stock of Valentines, is a -wonderful producer and a perfect 

 shipper. It will remain in a perfect condition for nearly two weeks after picking. We 

 have secured almost the entire stock of this wonderful Bean, which we offer you at 

 very reasonable prices in order to introduce and advertise it in your locality. Pt. 15c, 

 Qt. 20c, Gal. 65c, PecK $1.00, Bus. $3.75. 



BOLGIANO'S EARLIEST RED VALENTINE BEANS.— Our stock of this very superior 

 Bean has been carefully built up to satisfy a most critical market gardener's trade, 

 which trade we cater to. It is ready for picking in 35 days from planting — ten days 

 earlier than the ordinary Red Valentine Beans. Canners use them because they are 

 alwavs tender and have beautiful round green pods. PKt. 5c, Pt. 10c, Qt. 20c, 

 Gal. 50c, PecK 90c, Bus. $3.50. 



NEW GIANT STRINGLESS VALENTINE.-Is the earliest round podded green Bean 

 In cultivation. Pods are very large, meaty and tender. They are absolutely stringless 

 unusually crisp, round, full and fleshy, a decided acquisition and one of the best fhat 

 has ever been placed in the handsof the grower. Our stock is true, having been grown 

 from seed obtained from the originator. Large truckers and growers are frequently 

 shy of anvthingnew. But thev need not have the slightest apprehension to plant this 

 most valuable Bean. PKt. 5c, Pt. 15c, Qt. 20c, Gal. 65c, PecK $1.25, Bus. $4.50. 



BURPEE'S NEW STRINGLESS GREEN POD BEANS.- It is crisp, tender, luscious 

 flavor. Its handsome light green pods are ready to market TWO WEEKS EARLIER 

 than the Red Valentine. Pods are full, fleshy, and are produced in great abundance, 

 remaininglongin an edible condition, making them especially desirablefot theshipper 

 and truck growers. Persons planting it in their kitchen gardens have been delighted. 

 Canners prefer it and willingly pay higher prices on account of saving them the severe 

 expenses of stringing. PKt. 5c, Pt. 10c, Qt. 20c, Gal. 65c. PecK $1.25, Bus. $4.50. 



DWARF HORTICULTURAL OR CHERRY BEAN.-A crop of these Beans has never 

 failed to pay. — This is a broad, long, flat, meaty Bean, very productive, delicious flavor. 

 Our stock is so superior that growers who have used it have found it to be such a cer- 

 tain money-maker for them that they willingly give outside figures to secure the same, 

 often giving their order months in advance of planting season. It also makes a good 

 dried Bean for Winter. PKt. 5c, Pt. 10c, Qt. 20c, Gal. 65c, PecK $1.00. Bus. $4.00. 



EARLY MOHAWK.— The hardiest of the early varieties. It can be planted 

 earlv, and produces large strong viues which bear profusely. PKt. 5c, Pt. 10c, 

 Qt. 20c, Gal. 50c, PecK 90c, Bus. $3.50. 



WHITE NAVY OR JUNE BEANS.— Grown largely to save as a dried Bean forWin* 

 teruse. It has been an excellent paving crop the past several seasons. PKt. 5c, 

 Pt. 10c, Qt. 20c, Gal. 50c, PecK 75c, Bus. $3.00.

CULTURE OF DWARF BEANS. 



To afford a regular succession of crops throughout the 

 season, plant every two weeks, from the middle of Spring to 

 the end of Summer; but not until the soil becomes warm, as 

 they are very sensitive to both heat and cold. Plant in rows 

 18 inches apart, 2 inches deep; cultivate frequently, but only 

 ■when dry, as the scattering of earth on the foliage or pods, 

 when moist, will cause them to become damaged with rust. 

 This crop will flourish between the ridges of Celery, rows of 

 Corn or Cabbage, when they are first planted, as "the beans 

 would be ready for the table before the other crops attain any 

 size.
