BUSH BEANS -wax or yellow pod. 



NEW DAVIS KIDNEY WAX. — The high claims which I made six 

 years ago when Introducing this handsome and prolific wax podded bush 

 bean to the public have been fully sustained, and it holds a leading place 

 among the wax sorts. It is of strong growth and wonderfully prolific, and 

 holds its long, straight pods well above t he ground. The pods are of a clear, 

 waxy white color, and are more conspicuous than the foliage itself when 

 the bush is in full bearing. Seeds of true kidney shape, pure white, and 

 with no dark eye whatever. Pods plump, full and entirely rust proof. Used 

 as a snap short and also as a shelled bean. Adapted to home or market, 

 and good for canning purposes. Packet, 10 cents; pint, 25 cents; quart, 

 45 cents, postpaid. Peck, $1.51); bushel, $5.00. / 



IMPROVED RUST PROOF GOLDEN WAX An improvement J 



on the Golden Wax, which I no longer catalogue, on account of its M 

 liability to rust. This new strain has more vigor than its parent 

 hence its name. The pods are round 

 and succulent, and are borne in pro- 

 fusion, and I commend it to the public 

 as a superior wax bush bean. Packet, 

 10 cents; pint, 25 cents: quart, 45 cents, 

 postpaid. Peck, $1.50; bushel, $5.00. 



MAULE'S BUTTER WAX This 



valuable wax bean is the result of an 

 accidental cross between Golden Wax 

 and Dwarf JBlack Wax, and is now 

 held in high esteem everywhere. 

 There is no more reliable spot-proof 

 wax bean on the market. The strain 

 is a distinct one, and I have been sound- 

 ing its praises for nearly a decade. The 

 dry beans are white, with an irregular 

 brown eye. The long curved pods are 

 of a beautiful, clear, golden yellow 

 color. They are round, full and plump, 

 and entirely stringless, even when 

 nearly ripe. The earliest of the yellow 

 pod sorts, and very productive. My 

 supply is limited. Pkt., 10 cts.; pt., 

 80 cts.; qt., 50 cts., postpaid. Pk., $1.75. 



JONES' STRINGLESS WAX 



This is a new and desirable yellow pod 

 bush bean with white seeds. The pods 

 are round and plump, and attain a 

 length of five to seven inches. They 

 are thick and fleshy, and as handsome 

 in the basket as could be desired. The 

 pod is perfectly stringless, thus giving 

 name to the variety. The beans are of 

 prime table quality either green or 

 dry. Market gardeners will very much 

 appreciate this new bean. It makes 

 a tine display on the stalk, holding its 

 fresh appearance for a long while 

 after being picked from the bush. 

 1 commend Jones' Stringless as a 

 really valuable sort. Pkt., 10 cts.; 

 pt., 40 cts.; qt., 75 cts., postpaid. 

 Peck, S2.25; bushel, 9S.O0. 



ROGERS' LIMA WAX. — IMP - RUST PROOF GOLDEN WAX 

 Pod broad and flat, the broadest of all the 

 wax bush beans. The color of the pod 

 is a semi-transparent, glossy, lemon 

 wax, the pod assuming this attractive 

 color as soon as formed. Tender, juicy 

 and delicious in every way; never 

 tough. The plant requires space for 

 development, as it, is vigorous and 

 branching. It bears profusely, the 

 heavy poils hanging beneat h the | pro- 

 tection of the leases and thus 

 escaping injury by the weather.

 stringless and nearly solid, and always cook 

 tender and are of good flavor. Pkt., 10 cts.; pt.,

 Yosemlte and Plack-Kyed Wax. One of the
