Three years' careful comparative tests by several of our 

 tnost prominent Lima Bean growers has proved thisselection 

 to be fully ten clays or two weeks earliertlian any other. The 

 pods are large and numerous, invariably having from five to 

 seven beans of a pleasant shade of green in each pod. These 

 beans for the past two seasons have appeared in Philadelphia 

 markets about two weeks ahead of all otlierLinias, selling at 

 from ?3.00 to $4.00 [jer bushel of pods. We advise all our cus- 

 tomers who want a " profitable thing" in Lima Beans to plant 

 this sort largely. Pkt., 10c.; pint, 3.5c.; qt., 60c., postpaid; by 

 «xpres3 or freight, qt., 45e.; 4 qts., S1.50; peck, $2.75. 



LAZY WIFE'S POLE BEAN. 



This new Pole Bean, introduced a few years since, has 

 already become a great favorite. The pods grow from four 

 to six inches long, entirely stringless, and of a rich buttery 

 flavor when cooked. The pods remain green, and retain their 

 tender, rich, stringless flavor until nearly ripe. The beans 

 are white, and are unsurpassed as shell beans for winter use. 

 They are pronounced by all who have grown them the best 

 green podded snap-short Pole Bean in cultivation. We can- 

 not recommend this bean too highly. Pkt., lOc; pint, 40c.; qt., 

 70c. 



NEW EARLY GOLDEN CLUSTER WAX POLE 



BEAN. 



This new variety leads all the other pole varieties in earli- 

 ness. It is distinct in seed, color and habit of growth. The 

 pods retain their tenderness and plumpness long after the 

 beans have attained a large size, so that only a few days 

 elapse after they cease to be fit for string beans before thej' are 

 fit to shell. The pods are a beautiful golden yellow, and are 

 from six to eight inches long, borne profusely in clusters of 

 four to six. Commencing to bear ten days after the Dwarf 

 Golden Wax, it continues to produce an abundance of pods 

 until frost sets in. Large pkt., 10c. ; pint, 50c.; qt., 90c., post- 

 paid ; qt., 75c.; 4 qts., $2.50 ; peck, $4.00, by freight or express.
