BUCKBEE' S NEW RUST-PROOF GOLDEN-EYED WAX. 



Absolutely Stringless. Very Prolific. Positively Free from Rust. 



A STRONG-GROWING bush variety, of remarkable vigor and freedom from rust. It sends out short tendrils, on which pods 

 are formed, in addition to those near the central stalk of the plant, which accounts for its wonderful productiveness, 

 amounting, under favorable conditions, to 100-fold. The pods are meaty and well filled, thick-flat when young and semi- 

 round later; of rich yellow color and fine quality, and entirely stringless, even when old enough to shell. They are also 

 free from that parchment-like lining which make many varieties tough, unless when very young. If the pods are picked as fast 

 as formed, the plant continues to furnish a bountiful supply for a long season. K- pt. lac- ; pt. 2oc- : qt. 40c. 



NEW EARLY PROLIFIC GERMAN, OR IMPROVED BLACK WAX. 



We are so thoroughly satisfied with this improved strain of Black Wax that we have discarded the old stock altogether, this 

 being more vigorous and far more productive, with a longer, whiter, more fleshy pod. Vines medium size, very vigorous and 

 hardy. Flowers reddish-white or purple. 



Kest Early Black Wax Bean for the Market Gardener— Pods medium length, borne well up among the foliage, 

 curved, cylindrical, fleshy, and of a clear, waxy-white color, with long, slightly curved point; remain a loug time in condition for 

 use as snaps. Beans 6mall, oblong, jet black. No one can afford to plant the old Black Wax or Butter Bean, as this is much better 

 in every respect. % pt. 12c-; pt. 20c-; qt- 35c 



ROGER'S LIMA WAX. 



We claim for this variety four essential points: (1) Productiveness, (2) Handsome Color and Tender Pods, (3) De- 

 licious Flavor, (4) White Seeded and will make an Excellent Dry Bean for Baking. They require thin planting 

 (two beans being sufficient for a hill) on very rich soil, and will run true and not sport. The pods are the broadest of all 

 Wax Bush Beans; color transparent, glossy lemon wax, having the yellow waxy appearance very soon after the pods are formed. 

 When picked, will retain their bright, attractive appearance for a long time, and will not become tough. Quality very tender, 

 juicy, and flavor delicate, delicious. Seed small, oval, pure white, which is much in their favor compared with a colored bean. 

 Owing to its tenderness, fine quality and delicious flavor, it cannot help but please those who want the best. ,^ pt. 15c.; pt- 

 25c; qt. 40c.
