^tringless Green Pod Be ans 



No bean of recent introduction has given more universal satisfaction than this variety, and its 

 development marks a decided improvement in string beans. The plant is dwarf, large, very vigorous, 

 and matures a heavy yield. The pods are fuU^j twice as large, more fleshy and quite as stringless as 

 those of the Valentine, and mature about the same time. The dry beans are oval, and are chocolate 

 l)rown. Do not fail to try it. See colored plate opposite t>age 68.

Qound Pod Kidney fVax Beans 



Among the multitude of new wax podded beans this seems pre-eminently valuable. The 

 -vine is dwarf, large and very productive, and the long and exceedingly beautiful pods are of the best 

 quality, and in form are perfect, an imperfectly shaped pod being rarely seen. The dry beans are 

 slenderer than those of Kidney Wax, aie more nearly cylindrical, and are nearly white, with a little 

 ■darker coloring around the eye. See colored plate opposite page 68.

Jones' Stringless Wax Beans 



A new, white seeded, dwarf variety, with round, stringless pods of unsurpassed beauty and 

 quality. This is the result of crossing a white seeded sort with the Yosemite, and in it the good quali- 

 ties of the latter variety are developed to a superlative degree, while its faults of shy bearing and 

 imperfect pods are eliminated; the Jones' Stringless Wax being wonderfully productive of uniformly 

 well shaped and handsome pods. The plant is exceedingly hardy, rust-proof and productive. It 

 matures the long, round, fleshy, stringless pods very early, and ripens its crop of seed earlier than the 

 earliest of our field beans, so that it will prove a valuable sort for the farm as well as the garden. 

 See colored plate opposite page 68. Pkt. 10c; Pt. 25c; Qt. 3Sc; 4 Qts. $1.25; Bushel $7.00 



l^onder Bush Lima Beans 



This strain of I^arge. White Lima is quite an im- y^i^&sESS^SMS^m, 



provement on the original in that it is more compact in plant 

 yields more and larger pods and beans which mature 

 somewhat earlier. It certainly is a very desirable 

 sort for the home garden, and profitable for the mar- 

 ket gardener. These improved strains of Bush Limas 

 are among the most valuable additions to our lists of 

 garden vegetables. See page 15.

WAX BEANS 



This dwarf and medium early bean is a 

 cross between the Yosemite Wax and the 

 Ivory Pod Wax, and combines the good 

 qualities of each, while eliminating their 

 defects. The vine is vigorous growing, with 

 large leaves, and is very productive. The 

 beautiful, golden colored pods are as large 

 as, and even better in quality than those of 

 the Yosemite, and are wonderfully well 

 filled and perfect in shape. The beans are 

 white, thus avoiding the disagreeable dis- 

 coloring in cooking, which is so objection- 

 able in the pods of the black seeded sorts. 

 Pkt. 15c; 4 Pkts. 50c.
