SEED DEPARTMENT 
Wm. A. Allen, Jr., Department Manager. 
Our Seed Trade is entirely through this catalog. It is the only agent we employ. We send out no seeds to be 
sold again on commission, but deal direct with the planters; thus devoting all our resources to supplying them 
with the best and finest stocks obtainable at the lowest reasonable cost. The substantial increase in business each 
^ear rewards our policy, and proves that our seeds are meeting the requirements of particular planters.

good keeper, fine shipper, generally satisfactory. 
Davis Wllite Wax. This bean is adapted alike for the canner, market 
gardener, shipper or amateur. The dry bean is large, kidney shaped and 
white in color, making it one of the best for cooking in a dry state. 
Pods are long, meaty, flat in shape and of a beautiful yellow color and 
fair quality.

pods, 5 to 6 inches in length, free from rust, perfect shape and entirely 
stringless. Seed white in color with black eye. Plant grows robust, 18 
inches in height, erect, bushy and very prolific. We know of no wax bean 
that is more desirable for home garden. Wonderful new bean, which has 
but recently been put on the market. 
Round Pod Kidney Wax. A bean of superb quality, very tender, entirely 
stringless, makes vigorous growth, beans nearly white. One of the best 
for string beans. 
Wardweli’S Kidney Wax. This gives general satisfaction everywhere and 
is one of the best and earliest. On account of its hardiness it can be 
planted earlier than any other wax bean ; yellow pods, fine flavored and 
brittle, best for home or market.

I early. Bears early and stays edible through a long season ; pods often 
} 6 inches long. A good variety for market gardeners.
