Extra Early Round Pod Red Valentine ^^^ ^° 



nothing superior to this variety among the green podded sorts and 

 many prefer it to the wax varieties. Vine erect, with dark green 

 leaves; pods medium length, curved, cylindrical, ^nth crease in back, 

 very fleshy, crisp and tender: seed long, of medium size and unsym- 

 metrical in shape, pink marbled with red. Lack of sjTnmetry in the 

 seed of this variety is an indication of superior fleshiness and good 

 quality in the pods. We know of no stock of Red Valentine which 

 can be compared with that we offer in uniformly high quality of 

 pod. "We have carefully tested both in trials and in large fields many 

 different strains of Valentine offered under slightly varying names, 

 each claiming to be a great and distinct improvement and have found 

 none that compared with our stock which combines in the highest 

 degree all the good quahties of the sort. Pkt. 10c; Pt. 15c; Qt. 35c;

One of the most attractive market sorts. Seed of medium size,

C. . I ^ D J -^ iTiost valuable addition to our green 



OtringleSS L»reen rod podded sorts. The vine is vigorous,

 the Red Valentine but are quite as fleshy, of equally high quality and 

 remain crisp and tender longer. They mature a little later; seed 

 yellowish brown. Pkt. 10c; Pt.30c; Qt.SOc; 4 Qts. $1.00; Bu.$6.00 



^. . Cj. • 1 n> D J -^n exceedingly productive 



Lsiant i^trmgleSS Vareen rod and very handsome sort.

 light green. Seed long, slender, light yellowish brown. Pkt. 10c;

 Fp /^ D J This dwarf, snap bean, although new to the 



1 enneSSee L»reen rod seed trade, has for several years been grown 

 in the south and wherever known is spoken of in terms of highest praise. 

 Vine prolific, foliage dark green, with leaves large and crumpled; ppds 

 very long, flat, irregular in shape, bright green and of most excellent quality. Seed of medium size, 

 oval, flat, yellow in color. After careful selection we have developed a uniformly true stock of the 

 variety which is giving splendid satisfaction. Pkt. 10c; Pt. 35c; Qt. 40c; 4 Qts. $1.50; Bu. $7.50
