 All Green Podded Beam 



King of the Early Round Green Beans 



It can be planted at least ten days earlier than any other green bean. It 

 will stand considerable more cold and wet weather than any other beans. 

 This excellent variety is a great improvement over the popular standard 

 sort, Early Red Valentine, being OXE-THIRD LONGER THAN THAT 

 VARIETY. PODS PERFECTLY ROUND AND STRAIGHT. It has the 

 additional advantage of being suitable for both early and late planting, being 

 extremely hardy. It will withstand both early and late frosts, which kill 

 other varieties. A most desirable sort for the market gardeners, owing to 

 it* enormous yielding qualities, large and handsome appearance. Should be 

 planted instead of either Red Valentine or Refugee, being superior to either 

 in appearance. It resists the various bean diseases. Price, pint, 10 cents; 

 quart. CO cents; peck, $1.25; bushel, $4.25.

lay King Lettuce 



Bolgiano's Grand Tomato 

 Few introductions of late years have taken as 

 well as this GRAND NEW TOMATO. It has be- 

 come a standard Maine Crop Tomato. The large, 

 smooth, pink fruit, makes it the finest Tomato that 

 has come to Washington market the past two sea- 

 sons. This is no old variety with a new name, but 

 a Grand New Pink Late Tomato. It has surpassed 

 old varieties in that it does not show the tendency 

 to blight, as many of the older sorts do. We are 

 ■-lire that wherever it has once been used it will be 

 used again. Already we have taken orders for a 

 quantity of this seed, indicating that the demand is 

 ?oing to be large. Packets, 10 cents; 1 ounce, 25 

 cents; % pound, 75 cents; 1 pound, $2.50. 

 Early May King Lettuce. 

 This new Lettuce has been tried for several years 

 by some of the best Market Gardeners. Our grower 

 says: "May King Lettuce is a very early variety, 

 liefht green color; it forms hard, tight heads very 

 quickly after it starts to grow. It has been out for 

 four years, and has become wonderfully popular 

 with the Market Gardeners." Another large grower 

 s ays it is the best Lettuce ever introduced. Price: 

 Packet, 5c; ounce, 15c; Y\ lb., 40c; lb., $1.25. 

 Bolgiano's Curled Beauty Kale. 

 Extra Curled Long Standing Kale. In 1906 Mr. 

 Bolgiano, on an inspection trip through Long 

 Island, ran across a new Kale of very decided 

 merit. It was more curled than the Long Standing 

 and in every way more beautiful. It resembles the 

 Norfolk Kale, but does not need to be transplanted 

 or planted in rows as does that variety. It is the 

 most beautiful Kale we ever saw. Price: 10 cents 

 per ounce; 2 ozs., 15c; x /a lb., 25c; lb., 75c.
