end of July. One pound will plant 50 feet of drill. 
One and one-half bushels will plant one acre.

measuring 4K> to 6 inches long. They are broad and 
solid, tender,' brittle and entirely stringless at all

is allowed to ripen fully they make excellent shell

Ferguson's Improved Golden Wax. 
The Standard Flat, Wax-podded Variety. 
Among the Yellow Wax-podded or "Butter" 
Beans, the Golden Wax has long been in popular 
favor, but this I mproved variety by far surpasses the 
old favorite in 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, imiformly 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-yellow. 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. M lb., 18 cts.; 
lb., 55 cts. (post paid, pkt., lOcts.; H lb.. 20 cts.; 
lb., 65 cts.). 
Sure-Crop Stringless Wax.-^ 
of Dwarf Wax Bean, which, while not related to the 
well-known Currie's Rust-proof Wax, bears a great 
resemblance to it in plant, pod and bean, but is 
entirely different in quality, as it is stringless and 
tender at all stages of its development. Plant is strong and 
holds Dods weU oft the ground and will stand long seasons of 
wet weather. It is very productive, and bears the large 
golden-yellow pods in great aljundance, and because of its 
being very hardy the seed may be planted early. Pkt., 10 cts.; 
K lb 20 cts.; lb.. 60 cts. (postpaid, pkt., 10 cts.; 'A lb., 25 cts.; 
lb., 70 cts.). 
Stringless Refugee Wax.
