THE MOST PROLIFIC DWARF, 
GREEN-PODDED SNAP BEAN 
A very popular variety on account of its exceeding pro- 
ductiveness. It is medium early and is also extensively 
grown both in the north and south for a fall crop. The 
plants are of healthy, robust growth, about 15 inches 
high, of true branching bush growth. ._The pods are of 
attractive appearance, round, long and slim, of light green 
color, fleshy, solid and brittle, with but slight string and 
of tender and mild flavor. This type of bean is the most 
popular in the markets of the large cities, and it is also 
extensively used for pickling. Our strain of Refugee is 
very fine. (See engraving.) Price, 10c. pkt., 35c. pt., 
6Cc. qt., $2.25 for 4 qts. 
“Tast spring I bought from you an order of seeds and we never 
had so many beans as we had the past season. The limas were 
great and the green podded beans (Refugee) yielded all summer. 
There never was a bit of rust on any of them.”

Black Valentine = 
GREEN-PODDED BUSH BEAN 
Possesses all the merits of our old favorite Red Wealeuisne: and the 
pod is fully one-third longer. In addition it has other valuable 
points. The pods are extra long, round, straight and tender, and of 
a beautiful soft green color. It is also equally early, but has another 
advantage in that it is more suitable for late planting. In a test of 
the Extra Early Refugee, Henderson’s Earliest Red Valentine and 
Black Valentine, conducted in the fall, we found that Black Valentine 
was fully as useful as Extra Early Refugee, being equally as hardy 
in every respect as the Refugee, while the beans were produced in 
enormous quantities. For any purpose, or at any time of the year, 
this bean will be found exceedingly valuable to all classes of growers.

“T claim that Henderson’s Black Valentine Bean is the champion of all the 
dwarf green-podded snap beans, for I have tested all the good varieties. The 
Black Valentine is the best for both early and late planting and will stand wet, 
cold weather. It is of the finest quality, easy to pick, and is the most productive 
bean on the market today, but they must be gathered at the right time.”

Extra Early Refugee 
GREEN-PODDED BUSH BEAN 
This variety is a decided improvement on the old Refugee or 
1,000 to 1, as it is fully two weeks earlier. It has all the good 
qualities of the old Refugee, being wonderfully productive. The 
pods are of good form, very fleshy, free from string and very tender. 
Almost certain to produce a crop, even in unfavorable seasons. 
'Should be in every garden. -—rice, 10c. pkt., 35c. pt., 6Cc. at.,

“ Henderson’s Early Refugee Beans are very fine and were loaded with blossoms 
in four weeks’ time. My peas, too, are very fine, and they will be ready to eat 
on June 16th (Sunday), five weeks and one day since planting, and that on 
poor soil.” GEORGE F. SCHROEDER,
