PLANT LANDRETHS’ STRINGLESS GREEN POD 
11 
BUSH BEANS—Continued—Wax or Golden Podded 
Currie’s Rustproof Wax—50 Days 
Height of vine, 15 inches. Color of seed, purplish 
black. Pods, similar in shape to Golden Wax, only 
longer. Pods, light yellow, stringy, flat, almost 
straight, about 6 inches long, containing an average 
of 4 to 5 beans in a pod. A great favorite with 
truckers in New Jersey on account of its earliness. 
Davis Kidney Wax—52 Days 
Height of vine, 15 to 16 inches. Beans, large, white, 
kidney shaped. Length of pod, about 6 to 7 inches, 
containing 5 or 6 beans. Pods, handsome, long, 
flat, almost straight, stringy, light yellow. Pro¬ 
ductive and attractive when young, but as it grows 
older, it becomes very stringy and tough. 
Davis Kidney Wax Stringless—52 Days 
This is a recent introduction. It is the same as the 
old style Davis Wax. Has all its good qualities and 
in addition, is positively stringless. 
Hodson Wax or Golden Queen—70 Days 
Seed, long, uniform in shape. Color of seed, purplish 
red splashed with buff. Height of vine, 20 to 22 inches. 
Purple blossoms. Very late, of sprawling habit. 
Foliage somewhat resembles Late Refugee. Pods, 
about 7 inches long, slightly curved, creamy white, 
containing 6 or 7 beans. Largest and most hand¬ 
some of all Wax Beans. A striking exhibition 
variety but of poor quality, being stringy, tough and 
suitable for snaps only when very young. 
Improved Rustproof Golden Wax—50 Days 
Height of vine, 12 to 14 inches. Pods, 4 to 4| inches 
long, almost straight, flat, broad, absolutely string¬ 
less, meaty and fiberless, containing 4 or 5 beans 
in a pod. Pods, deep yellow. Seed, medium sized, 
oval, two-thirds of the surface being white, covered 
with shades of purplish red around the eyes. 
LANDRETHS' DELICIOUS WAX—54 Days 
This is a splendid, very productive, round podded, 
meaty, fiberless Wax Bean, with extremely healthy 
vines. This Stock was selected very carefully from 
Stringless Green Pod in our Trial Ground at Filer, 
Idaho. It is the same in every respect as the 
Stringless Green Pod except that the Pod is a Wax 
instead of a Green Pod. This bean should super¬ 
sede the Improved Golden Wax as it is a much 
better quality. The pods are round, about 5 inches 
long, and resemble Stringless Green Pod, except 
they are slightly shorter and yellow. The dry Seed 
being identical in appearance to the Stringless Green 
Pod. This bean is absolutely stringless. 
New Kidney Wax—52 Days 
This new bean is, we believe, one of the best intro¬ 
duced in recent years, because, while the seed re¬ 
sembles Round Pod Kidney Wax, it is white in 
color making it desirable for canning. The semi¬ 
round straight stringless pods are 6 to 7 inches long, 
very broad and of good thickness. The vine is 
hardy and very productive. 
Pencil Pod Black Wax—54 Days 
Color of seed, black, long cylindrical. Height of 
vine, 16 to 18 inches. Pods, round, 6 to 7 inches 
long, absolutely stringless and very meaty. Fiber- 
less and of the finest quality. This bean is without 
doubt the best round podded wax bean in the 
market and no one should be without it in his 
garden. The pods are very handsome, long, of a 
bright yellow color and extremely tender. This 
bean cannot be recommended too highly as a round 
podded wax.
