KKVALENTINE. 



THE STANDARD GREEN PODDED DWARF SNAP BEAN. 



Fully 10 days earlier than the old popular Valentine. 



Often ready for picking in 45 days from planting. Yields prodigiously. 

 Full, round, meaty pods of unsurpassed tenderness and quality. 



This variety is at least 10 days earlier than the Early 

 Eed 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 Eed Valentine. Bij a competitive 

 test made by one of the highest authorities on the subject in 

 this country Henderson's Earliest Red Valentine teas proven 

 to be ten days earlier than any other stock. Sold only in 

 sealed packages. (See cut ) lOc. pkt., 20c. pt., 30c. qt., 

 $1.75 peck, $5.50 bushel. 



HENDERSON'S BLflGK VALENTINE. 



Possesses all the merits of our old favorite Eed Valen- 

 tine, and. In addition, has other valuable points. The 

 pod is fully one-third longer than the Eed 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 another advantage in that it 

 is more suitable for late planting. In a test of the Extra 

 Early Eefugee, Henderson's Earliest Eed Valentine and 

 Black Valentine, condticted in the fall, we found that 

 Black Valentine was fully as useful as Extra Early Eefu- 

 gee, being equally as hardy in every respect as the 

 Eefugee, while the beans were produced in enormous 

 quantities. For any purpose, or at anytime of the year, 

 this bean will be found exceedingly valuable to all classes 

 of growers. 10c. pkt., 20c. pt., 35c. qt., $2.00 peck, 

 $7.00 bushel.

 EXTRA EARLY REFUGEE. It is similar in every respect to 

 the ordinary Erfugee, but is nearly two weeks earlier. It is enor- 

 mously proliflc, and from its earliness is almost certain to produce a 

 crop, no matter how unfavorable the season. In quality it is unexcelled, 

 btMng exceptionally free from string, and meltingly tender at all stages 

 of its growth. (See cut.) 10c. pkt., 20c. pt., 30c. qt., $1.75 peck, 

 $5.50 bushel. 

 REFUGEE, or THOUSAND TO ONE. This has always been popular ; 

 it is a very productive medium or late variety. The young pods are 

 tender, of fine flavor and of handsome appearance. Is extensively grown 

 for pickling. 10c. pkt., 15c. pt., 25c. qt., $1.50 peck, $5.00 bushel. 



HENDERSON'S GREflM YflLENTINE. 



Distinctly superior to its parent, the Early Eed Valentine. 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. Anotlier advantage which will recom- 

 mend it to all is tliat the beans retain their tenderness much longer than 

 in any other variety we know of. (Sec cut.) 10c. pkt., 20c. pt., 35c. qt., 

 $2.00 peck, $7.00 bushel.
