BEANS. 



NEW STRINGLESS REFUGEE WAX BEAN 



Pencil Pod Black Wax. An improve- 

 ment on Improved Prolific Black Wax, and 

 without a doubt hardier and more productive. 

 This is occasioned by its containing a little of 

 the Refugee Wax blood, from which parent it 

 also obtains its beautiful long, round and pencil- 

 like pod. The color of the pod is a rich dark 

 yellow, much handsomer and decidedly more 

 attractive than the ordinarv- lighter colored 

 Black Wax pod. It is extremely tender and 

 brittle, and while not quite as early as the old 

 style Black Wax, it comes along in season with 

 the regular standard sorts, and remains in good 

 picking condition much longer than the other 

 sorts. Qt., 30 cts. ; 4 qts., $1.10; peck, 

 $1.90 ;_bu., $7.50. 



Valentine \Vax. An improved extra early 

 Valentine Bean, with round wax pods. The 

 pods are very meaty, and with so very little 

 string that they may justly be called stringless. 

 It is remarkably free from rust, and remains a 

 long time without becoming tough. Qt., 30 cts. ; 

 4 qts., $1 00 ; pk., $1.75 ; bu., §7.00. 



Currie's Rust-Proof Wax. This variety 



is rust-proof; pods grow long, flat, are ven,- 

 tender and of the finest quality. It is early and 

 productive. Qt., 30 cts. ; 4 qts., |l.oo; pk., 

 §1.75 ; bu., S7.00. 



Green Pod ; Dxrarf or Busli.— Continued. 



3Ianimotli String-less Green Pod. In this variet}- 

 we offer the finest and earliest green pod stringless Bean it 

 has ever been our pleasure to see growing. The plants are 

 very productive, bearing profusely the large and green 

 pods, which are perfectly round, verj' fleshy and entirely 

 stringless. In quality it is equal to any variety ever 

 offered, and it is a great improvement in every way over 

 the long time favorite "Round Pod Valentine." Qt., 

 25 cts. ; 4 qts., 80 cts. ; peck, $1.25 ; bu. , $5.00. 



Burpee's String-less Green Pod Bean. This 

 variety is positively stringless, and remains tender and 

 crisp a long time after maturity. The pods are of pale 

 green, long and straight, perfectly round and meaty, 

 maturing with the earliest of the green-pod varieties.
