BEA^JS, WAX-PODDED BUSH 



20 



S. Round-Pod Kidney Wax 



Introduced in 1900 by Johnson & Stokes, and now listed by nearly 100 seed firms. The name Brittle 

 Wax has been applied to it by one seedhouse. The dried seeds of this Bean are almost white in color. The 

 snap pods, somewhat variable in size, are very long, curved, round, medium yellow, extremely brittle and 

 absolutely stringless. The pods are borne equally above and below the foliage. The season is medium early. A 

 magnificent Bean for market or home consumption. Pkt. 5 cts., y2pt. 15 cts., pt. 25 cts., qt. 45 cts., V2pk. $1.50, 

 pk. $2.25, bus. $8.50. 



22 Currie's Rust-Proof Wax 



This early and productive variety is one of the most largely grown of all Wax Beans. It is a splendid 

 shipper, and has uniformly straight, light yellow pods about 6 inches long, and flattish oval in shape. The dried 

 seeds are solid black in color. This Bean is perhaps more subject to anthrac- 

 nose than any in the list. It is not a good Bean for home consumption 

 as it is tough and stringy, but its splendid appearance offers a good sale on 

 the produce markets. Pkt. 5 cts., V^pt. 15 cts., pt. 25 cts., qt. 45 cts., y2pk. 

 $1.50, pk. $2.25, bus. $8.50. 



2* Improved Golden Wax 



This Bean is considered to be one of the most reliable of the extremely 

 early wax-podded sorts, suitable either for home or market consumption, 

 shipping qualities quite fair and, except for a greenish tinge which sometimes 

 appears under certain growing conditions, of beautiful appearance. Its 

 season is rather short. Pods are 5 inches long, straight, oval, deep yello\\ 

 in color and stringless. Pkt. 5 cts., y2pt. 10 cts., pt. 20 cts., qt. 35 cts., y2pk. 

 $1, pk. $1.75, bus. $7. 



26 



Sure-Crop Stringless Wax 



A comparatively new Bean which is becoming more and more popular 

 every season with all classes of our trade. The strong, vigorous vines pro- 

 duce rich yellow pods, slightly curved, 6 to 7 inches long and nearly inch 

 wide. It is absolutely free from strings and of excellent quality. Pkt. 5 cts., 

 y2pt. 15 cts., pt. 25 cts., qt. 45 cts., Vipk. $1.50, pk. $2.25, bus. $8.50. 



28 Ward well's Kidney Wax 



An equally satisfactory Bean for home garden, local markets or long- 

 distance shipping purposes. The medium yellow pods, uniform in size and 

 nearly 6 inches long, are brittle and stringless. As with the Currie's Rust- 

 proof they are subject to anthracnose during rainy seasons. This Bean is 

 one of the most largely grown wax varieties. It is, however, more subject 

 to disease and to climatic conditions than some of the other sorts listed 

 above. This is proof of its quality. Pkt. 5 cts., V2Pt' cts., pt. 25 cts., 

 qt. 45 cts., y2pk. $1.50, pk. $2.25, bus. $8.50. 



Kentucky Wonder— POLE BEAN 



This is a very old variety of the Green-podded Pole Bean, enormously 

 prolific; pods are light green, frequently 9 to 10 inches long, nearly round, 

 and very crisp and tender when young. Pkt. 5 cts., Vapt- 10 cts., pt. 20 cts., 

 qt. 35 cts., y2pk. $1, pk. $1.75, bus. $7.
