BUCKBEETS NEW GOLDEN-EYED WAX 

 I Have Never Known a Bean to Become Popular as Quickly as 



BUCKBEE'S NEW RUST-PROOF GOLDEN- 

 EYED WAX 

 Absolutely Strlngless, 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 won- 

 derful productiveness, amounting under favorable conditions to one hun- 

 dredfold. The pods are meaty and well filled, thick-flat when young 

 and semi-round later; of rich j'ellow color and fine quahty, and entirely 

 frfringless, even when old enough to shell. They are also free from that 

 parchment-like lining which makes many varieties tough unless when 

 very j'oung. If the pods are picked as fast as formed the plant continues 

 to furnish a bountiful supply for a long season. Pkt. 8c.; pt. 15c.; 

 pt. 2Sc.; qt. 40c. 



DAVIS WAX 



An Exceptionally Hardy, Productive, White-Seeded, Wax- 

 Podded Sort — Pods very long, white, straight and hanusome. The 

 most hariiy and productive bush wax-podded Bean. Vine rustless, vig- 

 orous. When young the pods are very brittle, crisp and tender. The 

 dry Beans are kidney-shaped, clear white and excellent for baking. Best 

 of all for shipping as snap beans. The perfect shape and fine color of 

 the pods, and the clear white seed make this one of the best sorts for 

 canners. Pitt. 7c. ; pt. 12c. ; pt. 20c. ; qt. 35c. 



IMPROVED WHITE WAX, or BUTTER 



Great improvement over the old white Wax. Vines good size, 

 erect; leaves large; blooms white. Heavy yield. Pods large, hand- 

 some and of great quality. No strings, no coarseness; flavor fice. 

 Pkt. Sc.; pt. 15c.; pt. 25c.: qt. 40c. 



NEW PERFECTION WAX 



ALWAYS GIVES ENTIRE SATISFACTION 



This is one of the most highly productive varieties yet intro- 

 duced. It has stood the market test, and has ^aken .ts place as a 

 standard. The color of the pods is a rich golden yellow, which 

 turns lighter as they reach maturity. The length of the pods is 

 six inches; they are a half inch broad, sharply pointed, and hang 

 in great clusters. Extremely tender and brittle, with but a trace 

 of string. In every way the New Perfection Wax is a highly sat- 

 isfactory, money making Bean, for it combines great productive- 

 ness with high quality. 



Plrt. Sc.; y2 pt. 15c.; pt. 25c.; qt. 40c. 



SADDLE BACK WAX 



Extra productive. Strong bush, about fifteen inches high. 

 Pods long, nearly straight, wr" i-oundent and extremely meaty — 

 so fleshy, in fact, that the space between the Beans is solid meat, 

 with no open spaces. Brittle, always stringless, rich golden yel- 

 low in color and of the finest flavor.

 markably solid throiiirhout. Handsome in appearance; rust-proof.

WARDWELL'S NEW KIDNEY WAX 

 It Is Impossible to Go Wrong If Crop Dependence Is Placed In 



WARDWELL'S NEW KIDNEY WAX. NONE 

 BETTER 



One of the greatest features of this Bean is that it is extremely hardy. 

 Both pods and plants are more robust than usual for a Wax Bean. The 

 shape of the Bean is entirely distinct from that of all other Wax vari- 

 eties, as it is of a perfect kidney conformation. Furthermore it is a 

 most prolific variety, and is one of the earliest and most hardy. The 

 po Is are long, fiat, a dehcate waxy yellow, quite brittle and entirely 

 stringless. Especially desirable for every chmate. Can be grown with 

 great profit in the South for earlv shipment to the North. 



Pkt. 7c.; i4, pt. 12c.; pt. 20b.; qt. 35c. 



ROGER'S LIMA WAX 



I claim for this variety four essential points: (1) Productiveness, 

 ,2) Handsome Color and Tender Pods; (3) Delicious Flavor (4; 

 White Seeded, Excellent Dry Bean for Baking. Require thin 

 planting (*two beans being eufficient for a hill) on very rich soil, and will 

 run true and not sport. Pods broadest of all Wax Bush Beans; color 

 transparent, glossy lemon wax. Tender, juicy and flavor delicate Seed 

 small, oval, pure w.hite.

 one-eighth bushel, one-fourth bushel, one-half bushel, one 

 bushel or more will be shipped by freignt or express at piur-
