NEW AND SELECT 
Varieties in Vegetable Seeds. 
In the following pages I hav® listed and described those varieties of vegetables, having more than 
usual merit, which have been introduced in former years. Most of them have withstood exhaustive 
trials in every section and under varied circumstances, proving their superiority in a marked degree. 
Not being merely novelties, valuable because of their rarity, they possess valuable and striking charac- 
teristics which will speedily render them staple varieties in all sections where introduced. 
Their excellence will, undoubtedly, enable them to supplant many of our now standard sorts in popu- 
lar favor. For list of kinds of long standing and generally recommended for extensive cultivation, see 
under heading of Vegetables, page 42.

New Wax Bean — “Golden Eyed.” 
It is my pleasure to now offer this new and rare wax bean to my friends 
I have grown it extensively this season and it has given truly wonderful results ; its remarkable beauty and 
manner of growth will most certainly render it very popular as soon as introduced ; as a wax bean I consider it the 
most excellent variety I have ever known. It is extremely early and vigorous, growing very rapidly, and yields 
a great profusion of tender, succulent pods, of a beautiful waxy appearance : its flavor is unexcelled by any of the 
wax varieties ; color of pods bright golden yellow. 
The vine grows about one and oue-half feet high, is strong and branchy, holding the pods well off the ground, 
thus keeping them clean and attractive. The perfect health of the vine and foliage is one of its most noticeable 
features, and its perfect freedom from blight and rust is another fact of great value. The pods grow uniformly 
handsome, without a spot, and keep extremely well after being picked. The peculiar golden marking about the eye 
of the bean when dry has suggested the name and renders it very pleasing to the sight. I send it out with great 
confidence in its worth, and believe it *s destined to become a staple variety. Per pkt., 10 cts. ; per 1-2 pt .,-20 cts. ; 
per pt. 15 cts., qt. 30 cts. « peck $2.
