HIGH QUALITY VEGETABLE SEEDS

BEANS 



Stringless Green Pod 



Dwarf or Bush, Green Pod (asufa mmm) 



Bean crop very short. Prices subject to change 



One quart will plant 100 feet of drill 

 I 'uhure. — The varieties of this class are tender and will not bear much cold. Plant about the first of April 

 if the ground is warm and the season favorable, and at intervals throughout the season for a succession, finishing 

 about the 15th of August. The best mode of culture is in rows, 2 feet apart, and the beans 2 inches apart, and 2 

 inches deep in rows. Keep well hoed and draw the earth up to the stem, but only when dry ; working them when 

 wet with rain or dew will cause them to rust and injure the crop. 



Beans. — If wanted by mail, add, tor postage, 4c. per pt., 8c. per qt. 



(Burpee's.) Posi- 

 tively stringless; 

 ripens earlier than Valentine, and remains tender and 

 crisp a long time after maturity. Pods are pale 

 green, long and straight, perfectly round and meaty. 

 Pkt. 5c. and 10c, pt. 25c, qt. 50c, 4 qts. $1.75, pk.

Valentine Improved Early Red 



For snaps there is nothing superior to this variety 

 among the green-podded sorts, and many prefer it 

 to the wax varieties. Vine erect, with coarse, dark 

 green leaves. Pods medium length, curved, cylin- 

 drical, very fleshy, crisp and tender. We know of 

 no stock of Red Valentines which can be compared 

 with that we offer in uniformly high quality of pod. 

 Pkt. 5c. and 10c. pt. 20c, qt. 30c, 4 qts. $1.00, pk. 

 $2.00, bus. $7.50. 



This variety can be 



King of the Earlies 



planted fully a week 

 earlier than any other green Bean, as the dry Bean 

 will stand considerable cold wet weather, while 

 other varieties at the same time will rot in the 

 ground. The main feature of this Bean is its easi- 

 ness. The pods are usually ready to pick at least 

 5 days ahead of Red Valentine, and are a beautiful 

 green color, extra long, almost straight, round, 

 thick, meaty, tender and in flavor unsurpassed. 

 Pkt. 5c. and 10c, pt. 15c, qt. 30c, 4 qts. $1.00, 

 pk. $2.00, bus. $7.50. 



Schultz's Stringless Green Pod J e h a ^ 



without doubt, is the very best of all. The plant is 

 of true bush habit and bears an enormous quantity 

 of handsome pods of light green color. They are 

 brittle, tender, fleshy and absolutely stringless, even 

 when fully matured. High quality, stringlessness and 

 productiveness should be sufficient to recommend 

 this Bean to every planter. Pkt. 5c. and 10c, pt. 

 25c, qt. 40c, 4 qts. $1.50, pk. $3.00, bus. $10.00. 

 Black Valentine. Pods are extremely long, round 

 and straight, and are quite attractive in appearance.

 pk. $2.00, bus. $7.50. 

 Longfellow. A very productive, early, green-podded 

 Bean. Pods round, about 6 inches long, medium 

 light green in color, tender, of excellent quality, and 

 quite stringless when young. One of the most at- 

 tractive market sorts. Crop failed. 



An extra-early 

 Green Snap Bean 

 of fine table qualities. It is very hardy, extremely 

 early, very prolific, and bears continually for several 

 weeks. The pods are thick, broad, extra long, very 

 uniform in shape. Desirable both for home use and 

 market. Pkt. 5c. and 10c, pt. 20c, qt. 30c, pk. $2.00,
