s White Tepary Bean 



A Productive White Seeded Shell Bean

 beau, of better flavor and more resisting to drought and scorching heat, has become 

 very popular in the southwest. The vines are of medium size with many branches, 

 some with short runners. It produces a greater yield than any of the so-called kid- 

 ney varieties. As a soil improver it is one of the most valuable legumes. Can be 

 sown any time after danger of frost until August; use one peck of seed to the acre.

Maule's Profusion Wax Bush Bean 



A Distinct and Productive Wax Podded Bean 



The handsome, golden yellow pods are excellent for canning and equally desira- 

 ble for the table. First offered in 1903, and is now one of the most popular bush 

 beans in our whole list. The vines are literally covered with fine, long, handsome 

 transparent yellow pods, which are remarkably brittle, as it has no strings whatever. 

 It is a wonderfully strong grower. Pods are round, of medium large size, full of 

 meat, brittle and stringless. In addition to these good qualities it is very early and 

 continues in bearing a long time. Maule's Profusion Wax will hold its own at all 

 times against the strongest competition. The demand for this variety has been 

 so great that often we are sold out quite early in the season, so advise early orders. 

 Packet, 10 cents; pint, 35 cents; quart, 65 cents, postpaid. 



By express or freight, not prepaid, quart, 50 cents; 4 quarts, $1.75; peck, $3.25; bushel, $12.00.
