Red Valentine. 



IMPROVED EXTRA EARLY RED VALENTINE— Is the 



favorite sort for growers who supply the early markets, because 

 its growth is so rapid, and because it stands shipment perfectly. 

 It is a heavy cropper, and ready to pick in about forty days.

KING OF THE EARLIES— Possesses all the merits of the 

 Red Valentine, and in addition has other valuable points. The

 perfectly fleshy and of fine quality; verv hardv. Pt. 25c, qt. 50c,

 comes into bearing very early and continues almost throughout 

 the season. Absolutely stringless ; good shell bean for winter 

 use. Pt. 25c, qt. 50c, pk. $2.50. bu. $9.00. 



BURPEE'E STRINGLESS GREEN POD— This new bean 

 produces a vine similar to Red Valentine, but develops pods to 

 edible condition two or three days earlier than the Valentine; 

 that is to say, in thirty to thirty-one days from germination, 

 which extra-ordinary maturity for table at once advances the 

 Stringless Green Pod to the first rank among table beans. 

 Pt. 25c, qt. 50c, pk. $2.50, bu. $9.00. 



GIANT STRINGLESS GREEN POD— This is a great im- 

 provement on the old-time popular favorite Valentine Bean.

 in length ; absolutely stringless, very crisp, round, full and 

 fleshy. Pt. 25c, qt. 50c, pk. $2.50, bu. $9.00.

KENTUCKY WONDER— Also known as Old Homestead. 

 We believe this variety is the most practically useful of the 

 green-podded pole Beans suitable for use as snaps. It is an 

 early, very prolific sort, with showy pods which are of most 

 excellent quality. The vines are vigorous, climbing well, and 

 very productive, bearing pods in large clusters. Pt. 25c. qt. 50c, 

 pk. $2.75, bu. $9.50.
