Improved Golden Wax 



= BUSH BEAN = 



THE STANDARD FLAT, WAX-PODDED VARIETY 



Among the Yellow Wax-podded or "Butter" Beans, the Golden 

 Wax has long been in popular favor, but this Improved variety 

 by far surpasses the old favorite in several desirable points. The 

 plants are of vigorous, bushy growth, not susceptible to rust, moder- 

 ately early, and very prolific. > Ihe pods are exceedingly handsome, 

 long, uniformly broad, thick and remarkably fleshy, of good quality, 

 tender and brittle, absolutely without string or coarse fibre at all 

 stages until maturity, while the color is of a rich golden-yellow. 

 Although not the earliest Dwarf Wax Bean, its reliability in produ- 

 cing a heavy crop of large, handsome pods, whether planted in 

 spring, summer or early fall, renders it highly valuable for both 

 home and market planting. (See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. pt., 

 35c. qt., $1.20 for 4 qts., $2.25 pk. 



"Am inclosing order for seeds, and can say that last year's trial of your seeds 



gave us the best garden in the neighborhood. The Improved Golden Wax Beans 



grew to eight and nine inches in length, and were wonderfully sweet and tender." 



Mrs. GEORGE DE VRIES, Milwaukee, Wis. 



" Your Improved Golden Wax Beans are all you claim for them and more. 



They are almost absolutely without strings, even after fully matured. 



W. M. McCREIGHT, Cheraw, S. C.

HENDERSON'S 



Golden ScimitaiWVax 



= BUSH BEAN = 



A PERFECT ROUND-PODDED STRINGLESS WAX BEAN 



This is emphatically the best round-podded Wax Bush Bean in 

 cultivation. 



For many years we have bred and selected it until we have 

 attained the acme of perfection, whether considered from the 

 standpoint of quality, productiveness, or flavor. In these respects 

 it excels all others of its class. 



The plant is of vigorous constitution — strong and bushy in habit, 

 which enables it to mature large crops of perfectly shaped Beans 

 of large size. It rarely produces inferior or malformed pods. 



Its chief value lies in its perfectly stringless character, which 

 renders it peculiarly suitable for private use, where quality is the 

 thing most desired. (See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. pt., 35c. qt., 

 $1.20 for 4 qts., $2.25 pk. 



"Last year 1 had some Golden Scimitar Wax Beans which you say will average 

 5 to 6 inches. I had a good many that measured 7 inches, and they were hand- 

 some." E. C. BABSON, Danielson, Conn. 



"I think your Golden Scimitar Beans the best Bush Beans on the market." 



J. W. SUTHERLAND, West Roxbury, Mass. 



"The Golden Scimitar Wax Beans surpassed any other in beauty, crop and 

 quality. F. F. WALKER, So. Sudbury, Mass.
