New Bean, 



DAVIS KIDNEY WAX. 



An Enormously Productive Rustless Wax 



Podded Bush Bean, Having; Clear 



White Kidney-Shaped Seed. 



Originated by a well-known market gardener, 

 Eugene Davis, of Michigan. Extensive trials the 

 past two seasons have proven this New Bean the 

 largest cropper, the handsomest pod, the best 

 shipping and market Bean in cultivation. 

 The plant is vigorous and healthy, of compact, 

 upright growth, carrying its pods on the centre 

 and well up from the ground. The pods are very- 

 long, oval, clear waxy-white color, and, when of 

 suitable size to use for snaps, entirely stringless, 

 showing no tendency to string until they approach 

 maturity. Practical market gardeners and 

 canners are delighted -writh it, because of its 

 hardiness, productiveness and handsome appear- 

 ance. The large, white, handsome, kidney-shaped 

 dry beans are very attractive. This ne^w bean 

 is sure to become a very popular standard 

 sort for both the market and private garden. Per 

 pkt., 15c.; pint, 50c.; qt., 90c., post-paid; qt.,

NEW VALENTINE WAX. 



THE EARLIEST WAX BEAN. 



This new variety, offered last season for the first 

 time, is the long-looked-for Bean, an Improved Round 

 Pod Extra Early "Valentine, with handsome round 

 yellow or wax pods. The type is so perfectly fixed 

 that only one plant with green pods, and that prob- 

 ably from a stray bean, was found in the field of the 

 originator, Mr. T. V. Maxon, the noted bean grower 

 of Jefferson Co. , N. Y. It is the earliest wax bean 

 yet produced; planted June i8th, pods over 4 inches 

 long were picked July 25th. Pods very meaty, en- 

 tirely stringless, remarkably free from rust and of 

 the best quality. All who saw our field before har- 

 vest pronounced it the most uniform and fullest pod- 

 ded field of beans they had ever seen. Pkt., loC; 

 pint, 30c.; qt., 50c., post-paid; qt., 35c.; peck, 

 $2.00; bush., I7.50, by freight or express.
