all the ma.ny new kinds we had tried, we 

 found none to excel it. 



Dwarf Flageolet Wax. A German vari- 

 ety which figures as Perfection IFa.r, also 

 Scarlet Flageolet Wax in some catalogues. It 

 is a robust growing sort with large fine yel- 

 low pods. For several years we have tried to 

 introduce it amongst the gardeners who still 

 give the Warchoelts Kidney the preference. 



Henderson's Bush Lima. This is a dwarf 

 Butter Bean which requires no poles, it 

 grows fi'om 18 to 24< inches high. It is early 



ness and productiveness with fine quality. 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, araounting, under favorable 

 conditions, from 100 to 150 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 v/hen large enough to shell. If the pods 



and productive. It should be called Dwarf 

 Carolina or Sewee Bean, as the pods are the 

 size of that variety. Recommend same for 

 family use, or where it is difiicult to obtain 

 poles. 



Burpee's Bush Lima. The pods are of 

 same size as the Large Pole Lima and of 

 same flavor. It is a stronger grower than 

 the Henderson's Bush Lima. 



Keeney's Rustless Gokien Wax. This 

 is the long looked for bean, combining hardi- 



are picked as fast as formed the plant con- 

 tinues to furnish a good supply for an un- 

 usually long season. Properly speaking, it 

 is not a Bush Bean, but a half climber; grows 

 G to 8 feet high ; should have some brush to 

 run upon. Otherwise the qualities are as 

 described by the introducer. 



Burpee's Stringless Green Pod is most 

 happily named, as it is quite unique — the 

 first stringless green pod Bush Bean. With- 

 out any exception it surpasses all others irx 



Our Aquariums of Gold Fish are Unsurpassed.
