DWARF WAX OR BUTTER VARIETIES 



Hodson Wax 



In growth of vine and foliage 

 this is by far the most vigor- 

 ous of any dwarf wax podded bean yet intro- 

 duced, and the yield of large, handsome pods 

 is enormous. Its dense foliage so completely 

 protects the pods that their color is an unu- 

 sually clear creamy white. Pods very long, 

 straight or slightly curved, flat but fleshy, 

 quite stringless and of very good quality. Pt., 

 15c.; qt., 25c.; 4 qts., 75c.; pk., $1.25; bush, 

 $4-50. 



New Prolific German or Black Wax

 earlier and more productive. Pods perfectly 

 round, longer and of an even, rich golden 

 color. Pt., 15c.; qt., 25c.; gal., 85c.; pk., $1.50; 

 bushel, $5.00.

Hodson Wax Beans. 



Stangen Bohnen, Ger. 



POLE BEANS 



I qt. to 150 hills. 



CULTURE. — These require poles 8 to 10 feet long. The Beans should be planted the middle of May if 

 the season is suitable. Lima Beans are apt to rot if planted too early. Set poles 4 feet apart each way, 

 and plant 4 to 6 Beans, about 1 inch deep, around each pole. Thin out to 3 plants to a pole, if the soil is 

 rich; pinch oS the ends of plants when they overrun the top of the poles, to effect more perfect growth be- 

 low. They succeed best in sandy loam, with a shovel ful of rich, light and well-rotted compost to each hill, 

 well incorporated. Lima Beans for early use may be grown in frames and transplanted.
