BUSH BEANS S&5gg 



Henderson's Black Valentine 



GREEN ROUND-PODDED BUSH BEAN 



A Possesses all the merits of our old favorite Red Valentine, 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 the 

 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 pf the year, this bean 

 will be found exceedingly valuable to all classes of growers. (See Illustration.) 

 Price, pkt. 10c; pt. 40c; qt. 75c; 4 qts. $2.50; 1 peck $4.75; trans-

Henderson's Earliest Red Valentine 



Full 



GREEN-PODDED DWARF SNAP BEAN 

 Round, Meaty Pod. Remains Long Fit for Use. 



1C This grand variety is a great improvement over the original Red Valen- 

 tine, as it is very much earlier, and remains fit for use for a long time. 

 The healthy, vigorous plants are unusually hardy, successfully withstanding 

 early frosts: it may therefore be planted very early. It will always yield a 

 large crop of handsome, long, round, fleshy pods, rich green in color and of 

 unsurpassed tenderness when gathered young, when it is practically stringless.
