 Are one of the earliest and most prolific round green 

 podded Beans that have ever been placed in the grower's

 farmer in the State of New York, by the name of Hopkins, 

 who, after years of greatest effort and determination, 

 produced what he has since termed Hopkin's Valentines. 

 It comes into bearing earlier than the old stock of Valen- 

 tines, is a wonderful producer and a perfect shipper. It 

 will remain in perfect condition for nearly two weeks 

 after picking. We have secured almost the entire stock 

 of this wonderful Bean, which we offer you at very rea- 

 sonable prices. Pkt. 5c and 10c, Pt. 15c, Qt. 25c.

5. BEST OF ALL EARLY HARKET.-One of the finest, most productive 

 and most salable Extra Early Round, Green-Pod Bean Grown. This fine 

 new variety has numerous advantages over many other green-pod sorts. The 

 pods are of a light silvery green color, long and perfectly round, solid 

 flesh, very tender and stringless. In earliuess and productiveness it is 

 excellent. The pods are borne in thick clusters well up under the foliage, 

 thus they are thoroughly protected. Tests have proven it to be hardier 

 than the Valentine, which enables it to be planted much earlier. Market 

 gardeners will find it a very profitable sort to grow. Pkts. 5c and 10c, 

 Pt. 15c, Qt. 25c. 2 Qts. 75c, Pk. $1.50, Bu. $6.00. 

 8. New Giant Stringless Valentine.— Is one of the earliest round podded 

 green Beau in cultivation. Pods are very large, meaty and tender. They 

 are absolutely stringless, unusually crisp, round, full and fleshy, a decided 

 acquisition and one of the best that has ever been placed in the hands of 

 the grower. Our stock is true, having been grown from seed obtained from 

 the originator. Large truckers and growers are frequently shy of anything 

 new. But they need not have the slightest apprehension to plant this most 

 valuable Bean. Pkt. 5c, Pt. 15c, Qt. 25c, Gal. 75c, Peck $1.50, 

 Bus. $6.00. 



11. HENDERSON'S BOUNTIFUL BEANS.-A prolific and continuous 

 bearer. The first in Spring — the last in Fall. Absolutely stringless— verv 

 tender and of a delicious flavor. Pkt. 5c, Pt. 15c, Qt. 25c. Gal. 75c.

24. NEW CALIFORNIA RUST-PROOF DWARF WAX. 



— One of the handsomest and most productive flat podded 

 Wax Bean ever grown. In this new variety, we have one 

 of the very best wax sort for market gardeners and pri- 

 vate families. It will sell twice as well and at a higher 

 price than other sorts. The pods are longer, broader and 

 of a brighter yellow color than many other sorts, very 

 superior quality, tender and stringless. The vines are of 

 vigorous growth, leaves dark green, hardy, and yield 

 enormous quantities of large handsome, flat, meaty pods, 

 borne well up from the ground, and has not shown any 

 disposition to rust, no matter where grown, 

 eight to ten days earlier than the Valentine, 

 should not be planted closer than four inches apart 

 in the row. We particularly recommend this valuable ; 

 sort to market gardeners. Pkt. 5c and 10c, Pt. 15c. 

 Qt. 25c. 1/2 Pk. 80c. Pk. $1.50, Bus. $6.00. 



19. CURRIE'S RUST-PROOF WAX BEAN.— Is the earliest to mature of either the Green or Wax Beans. It is ready for market 

 in 25 days from day of planting. Its beautiful, pure, golden, long-flat pods of extra fine quality are borne in abundance and attract 

 the admiration of both the planter and the consumer. It being the first bean in the market, always commands most profitable 

 prices. It is entirely free from rust and blight. Pkts. 5c and 10c, Pt. 15c. Qt. 25c, Gal. 75c, Peck $1.50, Bus. $6.00. 



21. TAIT'S NEW WHITE WAX. — The name of this handsome Bean is not taken from the color of the pods, as might be supposed, 

 but from the clear white of the dried Bean, the pods being a fine rich, yellow. It is hardy, and seems to possess most every 

 quality which could be desired in a Wax Bean. It is certainly one of the handsomest Wax Beans on the market, and we do not hesi- 

 tate to commend it strongly. It should not be planted too closely. Pkts. 5c ® 10c, Pt. 15c, Qt, 25c. Gal. 75c, Pk. $1.50, Bu. $6. 



22. NEW DAVIS KIDNEY WAX.— The King of Flat Wax Beans.— S« Photo. Surely time, energy and brains have culminated in 

 this, the grandest of all Flat Wax Beans. A beautiful form, handsome long pods, attractive color, luscious flavor, prolific yielder, rust 

 proof, excellent shipper — are the points that make this grand Bean the perfect success that it is. It is demanded by market gardeners, 

 truckers and shippers everywhere. It is a universal favorite. Pkts. 5 and 10c, Pt. 15c. Qt. 25c, Gal. $75c, Pk. $1.50, Bu. $6.00. 



20. WARWELL'S KIDNEY WAX.— Our stock of this very superior Bean has been saved with 

 such care that growers far and near, repeatedly state to us that they have never seen its equal, and 

 are always anxious to get the orders in early in order to secure the same. It is hardier, both 

 pods and plants are more robust and healthy and it is a much heavier yielder than the ordinary 

 stocks that are sent out for which extremely high prices are asked, and it is a remarkable ship- 

 per, and seldom shows any sign of rust. Pkt. 5c and 10c, Pt. 15c. Qt. 25c. Gal. $1.00, 

 Peck $2.00. Bus. $7.50. 



18. SUNSHINE WAX BEANS.— The beautiful, clear, attractive, bright golden color of this 

 most delicious Wax Bean gave it the name of Sunshine Wax. In the market, side by side with 

 many of the older and better known Wax Beans, the Sunshine Wax shone out and immediately 

 attracted the attention of all. The vines are so heavily laden with an abundance of long, round, 

 shapely pods it seems hardly possible that they can hold them all. You think of the Sunshine 

 again when you are marketing a large crop of fine Beans a week or two before your neighbors 

 have begun to pick. Pkt. 10c, Pt. 20c, Qt. 35c, Gal. $1.25, Peck $2.00, Bus. $8.00. 



23. JONES NEW STRINGLESS WAX.— Is sure to please, and give entire satisfaction at all 

 times and under all conditions. It is a yellow podded bush bean with white seed. The pods 

 are round and plump, and attain a length of five to seven inches. They are thick and fleshy, 

 and as handsome in the basket as could be desired. The pod is perfectly stringless, thus giving 

 name to the variety. The beans are of prime table quality, either green or dry. It makes a 

 fine display holding its fresh appearance for a long time after being picked from the bush. 

 Pkt. 5c and 10c. Pt. 20c. Qt. 35c. Pk. $1.50, Bus, $6.00. 



25. GOLDEN EYE WAX. — Early, vigorous and a bountiful yielder of beautiful, tender, waxy 

 pods. The vine grows VA feet high, holding the pods well off the ground, The pods are 

 shapely, flat and large. Pkts. 5c ® 10c, Pt. 15c. Qt. 25c, Gal. 65c. Peck $1.25, Bus, $5.00. 



26. IMPROVED GOLDEN WAX.— It has round, clear, waxy white pods, very fleshy, crisp, 

 tender and stringless. It is very productive. Pkts. 5c and 10c. Pt. 15c, Qt. 25c, Gal. 75c, 

 Peck $1.50, Bus. $6.00.

 (One Quart to 150 Hills: 10 to 12 Quarts to the Acre.) 

 Add 15c per Quart on Beans if to be sent by Mail. 

 27. LAZY WIFE POLE, OR WHITE CHERRY BEAN.— We presume it derived its name from its immense productiveness, 

 and from the ease with which they are cooked. The pods, of medium dark green color, are produced in great abundance, and 

 measure from A-\4 to 6 inches in length ; broad, thick, very fleshy and entirely stringless. They retain their rich, tender, and 

 stringless qualities until nearly ripe. Each pod contains 6 to 8 round, white Beans, which make excellent Winter shell Beans.
