PARTIAL VIEW OF A FIELD OF REFUGEE BEANS GROWN BY S E. HENDRY. CHARLESTON, S. C, FROM HENDERSON'S SEEDS. 



REFUGEE, Or '1000 tO 1." The most prolific dwarf, green-podded Snap Bean. 



A very popular market gardener's variety on account of its exceeding productiveness. It is extensively grown both in the 

 north and south for a fall crop. The plants are of healthy, robust growth, about 15 inches high, of true branching bush growth. 



The pods are of attractive appearance, round, long and slim, of light green color, fleshy, solid and brittle, with but slight string 

 and of tender and mild flavor. This type of bean is the most popular in the markets of the large cities and it is also extensively used 

 for pickling. Our strain of-Refugee is very fine (See cut.) Price, 20c. qt., $1.25 pk., $4.50 bush. 



EXTRA EARLY REFUGEE BEAN. 



This is one of the very best green podded varieties for the market 

 gardener. It is ready at the same time as the Earliest Red Valen- 

 tine, and two weeks earlier than the Late Refugee, or 1000 to 1. 

 The plant has the true Refugee habit, bearing a mass of small leaves, 

 which shelter the pods from hot suns. The pods are round, almost 

 straight, fleshy and solid, and of remarkable uniformity in size. 

 It is a prodigious cropper, and an excellent shipper, and is popular 

 on all markets and of excellent quality in every respect. Price, 

 25c. qt., $1.40 peck, $5.00 bush. 



" I am pleased to say that I have grown your Refugee Beans this season, and have 

 harvested the best crop I ever had. I use your seeds and no other."
