Fordhook Bush. 



Days to maturity-, 75. This %-igorous Lima is a prolific bearer, producing a large 

 number of pods about 4 inches in length on \-ines gro-^ing to a height of 15 inches. 

 The dried Beans are rather thick from side to side and are nearly white in color. For table purposes, Fordhook 

 does not seem as desirable as the Wonder Bush. Price, delivered: ^Ib. 15 cts.; lb. 45 cts.; 2 lbs. 85 cts.; 5 lbs. S2;

Wonder Bush. T^li 



the later introductions, having been first offered 

 by Dreer. From the standpoint of table quahty, 

 we believe it is one of the most desirable Limas 

 listed. The pods attain a length of 4 inches and 

 contain an average of 4 Beans which are flat in 

 shape and of fine flavor. The Wonder Bush is a 

 prolific bearer, but is not the equal of Fordhook.

Carpinteria Pole. 



produces large quantities of handsome pods and 

 is of unsurpassed flavor when prepared for the 

 t-able. The Beans themselves are not of the 

 enormous size boasted of in some varieties, but 

 they are exceedingly tender and hold their bright 

 green color when prepared for the table. Do not 

 fail to plant some Carpinteria Pole this year. It 

 v^-fll be your best Lima. Price, delivered: 141b.

hen picked young and handled promptly it is

Pencil-Pod Wax). 



{JOHXSOX & STOKES, 1900.] Days to ma- 

 turity, 45. This black-seeded stringless Bean is 

 by far the most hardy of its class. Although not 

 as well knovsTi as the Round-Pod Kidney Wax, 

 we consider it to be of equal quality. The slender 

 pods grow to a length of 6 inches, being slightly 

 curved near the tip. They are round, seven- 

 seeded, very clear yellow, absolutely stringless 

 and brittle. Color of dried seed, black. Price, 

 delivered : ^ ^Ib. 15 cts. ; lb. 35 cts. ; 2 lbs. 65 cts. ;

Round-Pod Kidney (Wax). 



[JOHXSOS & STOKES, 1900-] Days to ma- 

 turity, 4?. This is, perhaps, the best known of 

 the Wax Beans. Round-Pod Kidney Wax is a 

 ver\- desirable table Bean, being of high flavor 

 and excellent quality, but, as is the case with 

 all Beans of this class, must be gathered when 

 young. The pods are about 5 inches long, slightly 

 cunv-ed, round, yellow, brittle and entirely string- 

 less. .\Iore susceptible to cold weather than 

 Pencil-pod. Price, delivered: ijb. 15 cts.; lb. 

 35 cts.; 2 lbs. 65 cts.; 5 lbs. Si. 50; 50 lbs. S13.50.

 recommended for ail purposes, 

 it being very early, vigorous, and productive. 

 The mature pods are from 6 to 7 inches long, 

 straight, broad, flat, light green, and absolutely 

 stringless for snaps. It is a highly flavored va- 

 riety and one that can be recommended for local 

 consumption as well as for the large markets.
