Pride of Newton. This is a robust 

 strong growing beau with long ilat pods. 

 which are light g"een. It is quite early 

 aud productive. The beati is similar to the 

 Yellow Six Weeks in color, but much 

 hardier. 



Barly Mohawk Six Weeks. A 

 loag podded v .! iety, and very hardy. 

 I^ is used to & large extent for the market 

 for the nrst planting: very productive. 



Early Yellow Six Weeks- This is 

 the most popular sort among market 

 gardeners. Pods Hat and long; a very good 

 bearer, but not so good for shipping as the 



Mohawk or Valentine. 



WMte Kidney. A good strong grow- 

 ing variety, not much planted. 



Red Kidney. A kind largely planted 

 for the New Orleans Market. It is a coarse 

 growing variety, and much u^d for shelling 

 when the the pods turn yellow, so that the 

 beans are well developed, but yet soft. 



Best of All. A variety from Germany 

 of great merit, introduced by the late 

 Kichard Frotscher. It is green podded, 

 long and succulent; very prolillc and well 

 flavored. Excellent for shipping and fam- 

 ily use. Although not quite so early as 

 the Mohawk, it is of superior quality for 

 shipping, and therefore almost the only 

 kind planted here for that purpose. The 

 <;ut is a good representation as it grows; it 

 shows only two-thirds of its natural size. 

 Cannot be too highly recommended. 



Improved Valentine. This variety has 

 all the good qualities of the old Valentine; 

 oaly it is ten days earlier, a great consider- 

 atioQ when planted for the market; it has 

 taken the place of the old variety of Val- 

 eatine. 



Extra Early Refugee. Is an im- 

 provement on the well-known old Refugee. 

 Very early and prolific. Owing to its good 

 qualities it has become a favorite with 

 aaarket gardenets for shipping. Pods 

 rouad and fleshy. 



Best of All Beaos, % Hatnral 



Flowering Annuals to be had in'.their planting season.
