New Stringless Wax Bean 
: Golden Age 
(Illustrated “a the opposite page) 
A Triumph of Horticultural Art 
The Best Stringless Wax Bean Extant 
aac ‘We have named this supreme product of the horticultural 
art “Golden Age,” because we believe its advent means that the 
hybridizing and breeding of this important vegetable—the Bush 
Bean—has now advanced so far on the road to perfection that it 
may take yank, even if in a lesser degree, with modern achievements 
in other branches of human endeavor. 
Bush Beans are essentially an American institution, and they 
belong to us as much as those other great American contributions 
to the food of man—the Tomato, the Potato, and, crowning glory 
of ‘all, Sweet Corn. Stringy beans are detrimental both to the 
temper and the digestion, and dieticians the world over will wel- 
come the advent of ‘‘Goldem Age’? Bean, the best Suatelaloss wax 
bean ever introduced. 
Besides being absolutely stringless, *“‘Golden Age’? Basi is 
remarkable for its rust-resisting and disease-resisting qualities. The 
plants are vigorous in growth and bear heavy crops of transparent, 
tender, golden waxy pods, delightful to the eye, and ready to pick 
in 45 days from the planting of the seed. 
The quantity of seed we can dispose of this year is very limited, 
as we must keep a reserve stock to guard against possible crop 
failures next year; so orders should be sent in at the earliest pos- 
sible date. 
Price, 20c. Waoket, 3 mackets 50c., 80c. pte, $1.50 qt. 
“Your Golden Age Wax Beans are decidedly the finest I have ever 
eaten. This also applies to the Tendergreen Bush Beans.” 
H. 8S. BRISTOL, Elmhurst, Newport, R. I. 
“T was delighted with the results obtained from all the seeds I pur- 
chased from you last year, but especially the New Stringless Beans. 
From two rows I had more beans than I could use.” 
MRS. T. PF. POLLOCK, Glenview, Tl.

New Stringless Green Bush Bean 
Tendergreen

28. We make no claim to ‘‘wizardry” in our efforts to improve 
varieties of vegetables; we proceed according to natural laws known 
to scientists for a century. 
But the “‘way is long,’”’ and the breeding of this new offering, 
_ HENDERSON’S TENDERGREEN BUSH BESNS represents the 
work of years. 
Hybridization and selection of plants has in capable hands pro- 
duced many improvements upon nature, and for many years our 
own efforts have been directed in part to the elimination of “String”’ 
in bush beans. We offered to our friends the ‘Henderson Stringless 
Bush Bean” in 1920, which won instant favor, and in 1922 we had the 
great pleasure in offering another of entirely different origin; which 
we named Tendergreen, because that word expresses its most 
marked characteristic, in addition to being absolutely stringless. 
Tendergreen is a product of our own trial grounds, eTown 
hybridized and selected under our own eyes. Our aim is to place 
these new productions on the tables of our customers as quickly 
as possible so that they may continue, as we said when first offering 
this variety—‘‘to know the joy of eating beans without Serine 2 
We have accumulated stock enough to offer it this year in packets, 
pints and quarts but orders must be sent in early, as they will be 
filled in the order they arrive. 
Price, 20c. 3 packets, 50c., 80c. pt., $1.50 qt. 
“The Henderson Tendergreen Stringless Beans are perfectly won- 
derful. Also your Golden Bantam Corn.” 
MRS. C. W. TAYLOR, Tola, Kansas. 
“The Henderson New Stringless Bush Beans are undoubtedly 
superior to any beans I have ever grown.” 
MRS. I. E. BROOKS, Baldwin, N. Y.
