NOVELTIES AND SPECIALTIES 



Beans — Michigan White Wax 



This splendid variety may be briefly described as a white seeded Golden Wax. It is one of the earliest of 

 the dwarf, snap beans. The vines are very vigorous and unusually productive. The pods are golden yellow, 

 fully as attractive as our well known Golden Wax and of the same exceptionally fine quality. The seed is white, 

 a most valuable feature heretofore unattained in a bush bean of highest quality. {See further description, page 22)

Beans — Baldwin Wonder Wax 



This variety is a most prolific, wax podded pole sort of excellent quality for snaps for the home garden. 

 The vines are hardy and vigorous in growth, and when in condition for use as snaps the pods are very long, about 

 seven inches, uniformly cylindrical, exceptionally brittle and stringless. The color is a very attractive light 

 yellow. We consider Baldwin Wonder Wax the most desirable bean of its class yet introduced. {See further

Beans — Detroit Mammoth Lima 



This comparatively new pole lima bean is the largest podded of any variety of this class. The mammoth 

 pods are nine to eleven inches long, medium dark green in color and contain five to seven beans of the most 

 excellent quality. It comes into bearing medium early and the vines which are vigorous and strong growing 

 are exceptionally productive. A variety of distinctive merit for the home garden. {See further description,

Corn — Charlevoix 



(Pronounced Shar-Ie-voy) 



The many favorable reports we have had on this variety confirm our opinion that it is the best yellow 

 grained sweet corn yet introduced. This variety originated at Charlevoix, Michigan, where it was grown and 

 selected for over fifteen years by one of the best gardeners in the state. The ears are about seven inches long, 

 usually twelve rowed, and when in condition for use are deep creamy yellow in color. The grain is rather short, 

 very sweet and tender and is unsurpassed in quality. In season it is about the same as Early Minnesota but 

 remains in condition for use longer than most of the early or intermediate sorts. An excellent sort both for the 

 home or market garden. 



We recommend a trial of this variety; you are sure to be pleased with it. {See illustration en cover and

Peas — Connoisseur 



This second early, very 

 productive sort is especially 

 recommended for the home . 

 garden. The vines which 

 grow two and one-half to 

 three feet high are everbear- 

 ing in habit, vigorous grow- 

 ing and quite branching. 

 The pods which are abun- 

 dantly produced are of good 

 size, very attractive dark 

 green color and are well filled 

 with seven to nine peas of 

 exceptionally good quality. 

 While especially recom- 

 mended for the home garden 

 its productiveness and fine 

 dark color also make it a 

 desirable sort for the market 

 gardener. Seed medium size, 

 light green, wrinkled. {See
