 satisfactory bush bean for private family use we

HENDERSON'S BOUNTIFUL BEAN. 



A FLAT, GREEN-PODDED BUSH BEAN. 



A PROLIFIC AND CONTINUOUS BEAREK. THE FIRST IN SPRING— THE LAST IN FALL. 



ABSOLUTELY STKINGLESS— VERY TENDEK AND OF DELICIOUS FLAVOR. 



THIS superior variety, introduced by us, is a distinct improvement in green bush beans 

 and has become exceedingly popular wherever known. Our customers who have grown 

 it are enthusiastic in its praise; some of them say, "You do not praise it half 

 enough. " 



The plant is remarkably handsome and of thrifty growth, being practically rust and 

 mildew proof It is very hardy, extremely early, very prolific and bears continuously for 

 several weeks; it is the first to give pods fit to pick in the spring, and the last to yield edible 

 pods in the fall; in fact, frost usually finds midsummer-sown plants still in pod and blossom. 



But the crowding merit of this grand Bush Bean is in the rich green pods, which are of 

 immense size, thick, broad, extra long, very uniform in shape, solid, meaty and of high quality, 

 mcltingly tender and having a delicious flavor exclusively their own; moreover, the pods are 

 absolutely stringless and entirely free from any tough, membranous lining, not only when 

 young, but this tender "snap brittle" quality is retained even into maturity. 



In addition to the many merits of Henderson's Bountiful as a "snap" bean one lady 

 draws our attention to the fact that she "finds it is most excellent shelled after it is ripe for 

 winter use." 



This variety, while unrivalled in its class for the home garden, is also coming into great 

 demand among the truckers, who find that its handsome appearance and luscious quality 

 "hold their customers." (See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt,. 20c. pt., 35c. qt., $1.85 pk., $6.50 bush. 



Henderson's "LONGFELLOW" BEAN. 



An Extra Early, Kound Green-podded Bush Bean of Fine Quality. Remarkably early. Exceedingly 

 Prolific. Long round green pods, always solid, tender, and of delicious flavor. 



THIS extra early variety has been widely distributed, and we have yet to hear anything 

 but praise about its fine quality and other merits; it is in fact an ideal snap bean, 

 producing a fine crop of round, straight, solid fleshy pods averaging 634 inches long, 

 wonderfully tender and brittle, without a trace of tough interlining, and having no string 

 when broken, excepting when the pods are quite old. The flavor is most delicious, captivating 

 the most critical, while the delicate green color of the pods is retained after cooking, adding 

 to its attractiveness when served. The plants are of robust, compact habit, unexcelled in 

 bearing qualities, maturing the crop very regularly. It is extra early, the pods being fit to 

 pick four days in advance of any other variety of approximate size and merit. Price, 10c. pkt., 

 20c. pt., 30c. qt., $1.75 pk., $6.50 bush. 



Beans, Peas and Corn we do NOT deliver free, but will do so if 5c. per pt. or 1 Oc. per qt. is added to prices.
