 PROOF 



NEW PROLIFIiU GERMAN W VX. 



BKST OF ALL. 



EARLY MOHAWK.— A hardy, early sort; of old established reputation. Packet, lOc; pt., 20c.; qt., 3.5c. 



IMPROVED EARLY YELLOWY SIX WEEKS After Valentine, I believe this bean is the next best 



extra early green pod. it is absolutely stringless until it attains full size. It is extra early; very productive, 

 and always makes a good, thick, meaty pod. Packet, 10 cents; pint, 20 cents; quart, 35 cents. 



BEST OP ALL. — Pods are long, very fleshy, succulent and stringless; 

 of good flavor. They are produced medium early and abundantly. Market 

 gardeners in the neighborhood of New Orleans have long considered them 

 the best of all. Although only known In the North to a limited extent, all 

 planting them agree they well deserve the name. A good green podded 

 bean for either market or family use. Packet, 10 cts.; pt., 25 cts.; qt., 45 cts. 



NEW PROLIFIC GERMAN WAX An improvement GOLDEN 



on the old German Wax, being a stronger grower, with longer 

 straighter and rounder pods, and at the same time is more than 

 twice as proliflc. All who planted Prolific Wax last season are 

 loud in their praises, and want no better bean. Its very hand- 

 some, golden yellow fleshy pods, entirely free from strings, 

 recommend it to the market as well as the home gardener. 

 Packet, 10 cents; pint, 25 cents; quart, 45 cents. 



IMPROVED RUST PROOF GOLDEN WAX.— As we all 

 know, the Golden Wax has long been a popular and desirable 

 variety, its greatest fatilt being its liability to rust, especially in 

 wet weather. This new strain of Golden Wax is really all its 

 name iniplies. Pods are thicker than Golden Wax, and if any- 

 thing of better quality, and above all, absolutely rust proof. 

 Packet, 10 cents; pint, 25 cents; quart, 45 cents. 



YOSEMITB Wf AX.— No Other Dwarf Bush Bean can any- 

 where near approach Yosemite in size, pods being often 8 to 9 

 inches long, and as thick as a man's finger. Pods are nearly all 

 solid meat, and are absolutely stringless, always cooking tender 

 and luscious. Packet, 10 cents; pint, 30 cents; quart, 50 cents. 



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

 most delicious flavor. Packet, 10 cts.; pint, 25 cts.; quart, 45 cts. 



SADDLE-BACK WAX A cross of the Yosemite and 



Black-Eyed Wax. Claimed to be broader and thicker than 

 other sorts. Packet, 10 cents; pint, 25 cents; quart, 45 cents. 



KEENEY'S RUSTLESS GOLDEN WAX — N. B. Keeney '!| 

 & Sons, one of the largest and most experienced bean growers 

 in the country, say regarding this Bean : "A strong growing 

 bush variety of remarkable vigor and freedom from rust. It 

 sends out short tendrils, on which pods are formed, in addition 

 to those near the central stalk, which accounts for its wonder- 

 ful productiveness. The pods are meaty and well tilled, thick, 

 fiat when young and semi-round later, of rich yellow color and 

 fine quality, and entirely stringless. If the pods are kept Wi j,i 

 picked as fast as formed, will furnish a bountiful supply for an \l||li| 

 unusually long season." Pkt., 10 cts.; pt., 30 cts.; qt., .50 cts. M W 



GOLDEN Vl^ AX Ten days earlier than the Black Wax. ''"'' ™ 



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

 variety is hard to beat. Notwithstanding the many wax sorts, 

 it still holds its own. Packet, 10 cts.; pint, 25 cts.; quart, 40 cts. 



WHITE KIDNEY.— Popular, either green or ripe, and is 

 one of the very best for Winter use. Pkt,, lOc; pt., 25c.; qt., 40c. 



LARGE W^HITE MARROW^PAT This has always been 



a popular variety in field culture, and also a most profitable 

 market sort. Packet, 10 cents; pint, 20 cents; quart, 35 cents. 



BURLINGAME MEDIUMS.— The earliest, hardiest and 

 mosi productive field bean in America. 40 bushels to the acre 

 Is not an unusual yield, an d they have fre- 

 quently made even a larger return. They ri- 

 pen several days earlier than the Marrow or 

 Pea bean, and in a wet season 

 will keep dry and healthy, 

 while other varieties rust and 

 spot. The ripened seed is 

 pearl}' white, and much hand 

 somerthan the old sort, conse 

 quently brings an extra pi ice 

 It has always produced a ciop 

 when other field sorts have 

 failed. Packet, 10 cents; pint, 

 25 cents; quart, 40 cents. 



PROLIFIC TREE Thiv 



is a small, very white bean, le 

 sembliug the old-fashioned 

 Navy bean. They should be 

 planted in rows 2>^ feet apart, 

 and 20 inches apart in tne 

 rows, so as to secure a large 

 yield; they should not be al- 

 lowed to crowd each other. In 

 competition for a $25.00 pie 

 mium, M. B. Puryear, Lin- 

 wood, Ark., raised a vine con- 

 taining 711 pods. From this, 

 some idea can be had of their 

 wonderful productiveness.Pkt., 

 10 cts.; pt., 25 cts.; qt., 40 cts.
