The 

 Coming 

 Bean! 



pr* 



DO NOT FAIL 

 TO TRY IT. 



The Hodson Long-Pod Dwarf Wax Bean. 



Enormous Plant— Enormous Pod— Enormous Yield. 



A distinct, new type of Wax Bean ; the plants grow nearly 2 1 

 feet high by 2 feet across, and bear enormous quantities of slim, 

 but plump, meaty pods 7 to 8 inches long, and of a waxy cream- 

 yellow color. The luxuriant foliage shelters the pods from the hot 

 sun rendering them exceptionally tender, brittle, free from fibre, 

 and if picked before too old they are stringless. This variety is 

 such a remarkably sturdy grower that in consequence it is immune 

 from bean diseases, foliage and pods being free from rust blight, 

 etc It comes in about 2 weeks later than early beans. For both the 

 private and the market gardener this bean will be of great value. 

 \See cut.) Price, 20c. i pint, 35c. pint, 60c. quart. 



Henderson's Golden Sdmitar 



The Perfection of Cylinder=podded Dwarf Wax Beans. 



THIS new round-podded Dwarf Wax Bean, the latest 

 applicant for popular favor, has attained the 

 top notch of perfection among beans of this 

 class. It has been so highly bred and selected that 

 it excels all others in its combination of essential 

 qualities, among which we mention remarkable 

 uniformity in size and shape. It produces no 

 culls, the pods average five to six inches in 

 length, which is unusually large for a round- 

 podded, wax variety ; they are very solid, meaty 

 and tender, free from string, breaking brittle, 

 and the flavor is unsurpassed. These desir- 

 able table qualities are retained well on to- 

 wards maturity or long after many other sorts 

 have become too tough and stringy to vise. 

 The plant is everything desirable, a bushy, 

 robust grower, with splendid protecting foli- 

 age, free from rust or mildew, and it is ex- 

 tremely prolific. It is also very hardy, en- 

 abling it to be grown for both early, mid- 

 summer and late autumn use. (See cut.) 

 Price, 15c. h pt., 25c. pt., 40c. qt., $2.50 pk.
