harden. Pint, 30c.; qt., 50c.; peck, $1.50. 
NEW DATE WAX. An entirely new and distinct 
dwarf German Wax Bean. Its long, yellow, stringless pods,

GOLDEN WAX. Thisvariety is a few days earlier than 
the old German Black Wax; pods long, brittle, entirely

buttery flavor, while as a bean for Winter use, it has few 
equals. Pint, 25c.; qt., 50c.; peck, $1.50; bush., $5.50.

NEW DETROIT WAX. This is an early variety, the 
vine being very vigorous and upright in growth, very pro- 
ductive. The pods are fit for use about the same time as the 
Golden Wax, but resemble those of the White Wax in shape, 
although much larger and deeper yellow color. They have 
the remarkable quality of standing a long time after picking 
without rusting or other deterioration. They are very fleshy,

HENDERSON’S « NEW * BUSH + LIMA * BEAN. 
Previous to the introduction of this valuable variety, two 
years since, thousands were deterred from cultivating the 
most delicious of vegetables—the Lima Bean—from the great 
trouble and expense of procuring poles on which to grow 
them. This is now a thing of the past, as the New Bush Lima 
grows without the aid of stakes or poles, in compact bush 
form, from fifteen to eighteen inches high, and produces 
enormous crops of delicious Lima Beans, which can be as 
easily gathered as the common garden bush beans. 
_ Itis at least two weeks earlier than any of the climbing 
limas and produces a continuous crop from the time it comes 
into bearing until frost, and being enormously productive, 
271 pods haying been counted on a single plant. A very 
small patch will keep a family supplied throughout the 
season. The beans are of the size of the Sieva or Southern 
Lima and as before stated of delicious quality. Pkt., 10c.; 
pint, 50¢.; qt., 90c., post-paid. Peck, $4.50. 
HENDERSON'S NEW BUSH 
BURLINGAME MEDIUMS. This is the leading field 
bean grown in Central New York. Many thousand bushels 
are grown each season on the Genesee Flats, and fifty bushels 
to the acre is not an uncommon yield, The beans are pearly 
white in color and do not rust orspot. Burlingame Mediums 
are much sought after by dealers everywhere, and always 
command top-notch market prices. Pkt., 10¢c.; pint, 20e.; 
qt., 35¢.; peck, $1.10; bush., $4.00. 
NEW SNOWFLAKE FIELD. This valuable new 
variety, introduced three years since, has given wonderful 
results. It has proven very much earlier and more prolific 
than either the common standard Pea Bean, or Prolific Tree 
Bean, which it resembles somewhat in appearance. The 
plant grows upright, holding its pods well up from’ the 
ground. They are borne in thick clusters, and ripen all at 
once, as many as eighty well-filled pods appearing on asingle 
vine. The leaves fall off earlier than with other varieties, 
thus opening the pods to the sun. We believe it will even- 
tually supplant all other varieties of White Pea Beans. Pkt., 
10e.; pint, 25c.; qt., 45¢e.; peck, $1.25; bush., $4.50. 
PROLIFIC TREE. A 
valuable variety for field cul- 
ture, growing about twenty 
inchesin height, branching out 
in all directions, bearing its \ff 
pods so high that they donot 
touch the ground. They have &; 
yielded at the rate of nearly HY 
one hundred bushels to the i | 
acre. They resemble the com- WY 
mon Navy Bean, more round- ¥f 
ed at the ends and very white, 
cooking in less time. Pint, 
20e.; qt., 35¢.; peck, $1.10; 
bush., $4.00. 
Canadian Wonder, 
Rose Bean. Of very dwarf 
habit. Pods tender and delic- 
ious, growing long, frequently fifteen inches, and producing 
abundantly. Pint, 20c.; qt., 35e. 
BOSTON FAVORITE, or GODDARD. This 
new variety is destined to entirely take the place of 
the Dwarf Horticultural. It bears handsome large red 
pods, which are very tender and succulent as a string 
bean. It is also very valuable as a shell bean, Pint, 
25e.; qt., 40e. 
Dwarf Horticultural. A dwarf variety of the 
Horticultural Pole Bean. Pint, 20c.; qt., 35c. 
Royal Dwarf, or White Kidney. Among the

NEW GOLDEN WAX FLAGEOLET. This 
magnificent New Wax Pole Bean,from Germany, is also 
very early in ripening. Itis entirely stringless, the 
pods growing seven to eight inches long, round, fleshy, 
and of the finest quality, being exceedingly tender and 
succulent. The vine begins to bear when quite young, 
continuing to grow and bear most profusely the entire 
season. It is worthy of the highest praise, and we hope 
every customer who orders beans will include at least 
a packet of this new variety, asitis sure to please. Pkt., 
10c.; pint, 35¢.; qt., 60¢e., post-paid; qt., 45¢e.; 4 qts., $1.50; 
peck, $2.50, by express. 
EXTRA EARLY GREEN CLUSTER. This new 
bean is almost as early as the Bush varieties. The pods 
are green while the beans are white and nearly as large 
as the Lima, and when cooked possess the rich flavor of 
that variety to such an extent that it is difficult to 
distinguish them from Limas. They are frequently fit 
for the table before Lima Beans commence te blossom. 
They are very productive and continue in bearing a long 
time. Do not confound this variety with the Early 
Golden Cluster Wax Pole Bean, which is used as a snap- 
short. Pkt., 10c.; pint., 30c.; qt., 50¢e.; peck, $2.50.
