NEW MONT D'OR.-A variety well worth a trial. One of 



the earliest of all the dwarf wax sorts, and less liable to rust than 



many others. It is very prolific ; at times oveT 40 pods, 4 to 5 inches 



long, can be counted on a single plant. Has golden yellow pods 



of tender and most excellent flavor. Pkt, 10c; pt., 30c; qt., 50c 



IVORY POD WAX Earlier than Black Wax. Pods are long, 



brittle and stringless, of beautiful transparent ivory white appearance. 

 Vines liable however to throw out runners. Pkt. 10c; pt. 30c; qt. 50c 

 WARDWEIL'S KIDNEY WAX.— This most proline and 

 hardy Dwarf Wax Bean is unquestionably one of the earliest of all. 

 It is only surpassed in this respect by Maine's Butter Wax. In com- 

 parison with the Golden Wax, the pods are often ready to 

 pull ten days earlier. Vines are of medium size and hardy, 

 while the pods are long, flat and of a delicate waxy yellow. Very 

 brittle and entirely stringless. Packet, 10c; pint, 30c; quart, 50c 

 BURPEE'S PERFECTION WAX — The introducer 

 claims for this variety unusual vigor of growth, and immense 

 productiveness. They have large pods on a strong bush by which 

 they are held well up trom the ground. Pkt. 10c ; pt. 30c. ; qt. 50c 

 BLACK WAX.— Tender, yellow, transparent pods, of the 

 most delicious flavor. Free of runners. Pkt. 10c ; pt. 25c ; qt. 45c 

 GOLDEN WAX.— Ten days earlier than the Black Wax. 

 Pods large, Ion;;, brittle and stringless. Say what you will this 

 variety is hard to equal, and notwithstanding the many new 

 k wax sorts of recent introduction. I still think it should be in 

 %^ every garden. Packet, 10 cts.; pint, 25 cts.; quart, 45 cts. 



YOSEMITE WAX— Absolutely largest of all. See pp ; 6: 



IMPROVED RUST-PROOF GOLDEN W AX.— This 

 new strain of Golden Wax is really all its name implies. Pods 

 are thicker than Golden Wax, if anything of better quality, and 

 absolutely rust-proof. Having fulfilled all claims made for it the 

 last two seasons, I am confident in offering this Improved Rust- 

 Proof variety of Golden Wax, that my customers will find it well 

 worth the extra price I have to ask. Pkt., 15c; pt., 35c ; qt., 60c 



SADDLE-BACK. WAX.— A cross of the Yoseinite and 

 Black-Eyed Wax, made by N. B. Keeney & Son, Genesee Co., N. Y. 

 First offered in 1890 by a Philada. seedsman, who claims them to 

 be broader and thicker than other sorts. Pk., 10 cts. ; pt., 40 cts. 



NEW PROLIFIC GERMAN WAX This is a decided 



improvement on the old German Wax Butter Beans, being a 

 stronger grower, with longer, straighter and rounder pods and at 

 the same time being more than twice as proline. For 

 productiveness and fine quality, I doubt if it is surpassed by any 

 other bean in existence, except possibly Maule's Butter Wax. All 

 who planted it last year are loud in their praises of Prolific Wax j 

 and want no better bean. The very handsome, golden yellow, ! 

 fleshy pods, entirely free from strings, borne in immense quantities 

 on every plant, alike recommend Prolific Wax for either the 

 market or home garden. Pkt., 10 cts.; pt., 30 cts.; qt., 50 cts. 



FLAGEOLET DWARF WAX Pods a beautiful golden 



color, larger than Golden Wax, and even more striking and showy, 

 similar to Perfection Wax. Pkt., 10 cts.; pt., 30 cts.; qt., 50 cts.
