SORTS 
Ferguson's Improved Golden Wax. 
The Standard Flat Wax-Podded 
Variety. Among the Yellow Wax-podded or

long been in popular favor, but this Improved

several desirable points. The plants are of 
vigorous, bushy growth, not susceptible to rust, 
moderately early, and very prolific. The pods 
are exceedingly handsome, long, uniformly broad, 
thick and remarkably fleshy, of good quality 
tender and brittle, absolutely without string or coarse 
fibre at all stages until maturity, while the color Is of 
a rich golden-yeUow. Although not the earliest 
Dwarf Wax Bean, its reliability in producing a heavy 
crop of large, handsome pods, whether planted in 
spring or summer, renders it highly valuable for 
both home and market planting. }i lb., 18 cts.; 
lb., 55 cts. (post paid, }4 lb., 20 cts.: lb.. 65 cts.). 
Sure-Crop Stringless Wax.

tender at all stages of its development. Plant is strong and 
holds pods well off the ground and will stand long seasons of 
wet weather. It is very productive, and bears the large 
golden-yellow pods in great abundance, and because of its 
being very hardy the seed may be planted early. }i lb., 
20 cts.; lb. 60 cts.; (post paid H lb. 25 cts.; lb. 70 cts.).
