Davis’ Wax, Stringless (New).Beadman 
It produces the same attractive waxy yellow pods of the original 
variety but minus the strings. The larger flat pods are 6/2 inches 
long and uniformly straight. The white beans are kidney shaped. 
Introduced by us in 1931. 
Golden Eye Wax. Beagel 
Almost rust proof, very hardy, early and prolific. Pods large, yellow, 
5 to 6 inches long, flat and almost straight, and with considerable fiber 
and string. Beans are white with a yellow eye. Very showy; follows 
Old Style Golden Wax in season. 
Golden Wax (Old Style).Beak 
Probably the most popular of the wax varieties and one of the best. 
Very early and quite productive; pods 4 to 4J4 inches long, very stout, 
straight or slightly curved and oval in form; flesh brittle, stringless 
and of good quality; color bright yellow; seed white, much mottled 
brown. 
Golden Wax, Improved Rust Proof (Grenell’s).Beaker 
Closely resembles Golden Wax, differing only in having a shorter, 
stouter and more straight, flat pod. Plant a trifle shorter and 
apparently not so productive as in the Old Style. The brown mottled 
seed is darker in color than Golden Wax. 
Hodson Wax . Beamy 
F.xtremelv vigorous, very hardy and productive, though rather late. 
Noted for its very large, flat, gently curved, attractive wax pods 
which are 6 to 6^4 inches long; rather fibrous and stringy. Holds up 
well as a shipping sort to distant markets. Seed dark red, splashed 
with mottlings of lighter shade. 
Kidney Wax (Burpee’s New Stringless).Bear 
Resembling Wardwell’s Kidney Wax, but pod is longer and thicker, 
though not so broad; fairly productive and of high quality; stringless, 
flberless, very straight, fleshy and brittle. Pods about 6 inches long 
and of am attractive, clear yellow color; mid-season. An excellent 
variety for canning. 
Refugee Wax (Stringless).Beardless 
A popular canner’s variety. Mid-season, very hardy, vigorous and 
productive. Pods 4}4 to 5 inches long, slender, regularly curved, 
round, well filled, with no depressions; fleshy, fine grained and excellent 
quality. Color pale yellow but showing a faint purple splashing at 
maturity. 
Round Pod Kidney Wax (Brittle Wax).Bearer 
An excellent early, round podded, stringless variety of highest 
quality. Pods 5 to 6 inches long and of a light yellow wax-like 
color. Seed white with brownish-black eye. 
Sure Crop Wax. Bearing 
A selection from Currie’s Rust Proof Wax, having black seed and 
differing in that it is stringless, more hardy, rust-resistant and a little 
later. Pods flat, 6 inches long, somewhat thicker than Currie’s and 
with a stronger plant growth. 
Unrivalled Wax. Bearipoy 
An immensely productive, first early, showy sort. Pods 5 to 5*4 
inches long, rather narrow, either perfectly straight or slightly curved, 
somewhat flattened but fleshy. The pods show their clear yellow 
color at an early stage and while having a trace of string are quite 
fiberless. Plant large, vigorous and nearly disease resistant; seed 
distinctly small, flat, kidney-shaped, ochre-brown in color. 
Wardwell’s Kidney Wax. Beastly 
A very popular, early, gardener’s variety. Pods large, S l /-> to 6 
inches long, moderately stout, straight and flat, fleshy, brittle, fine 
grained and nearly stringless. Of good quality and very attractive. 
Webber Wax (Cracker Jack Wax). Bearish 
A high quality, flat podded, stringless variety of the season of 
Wardwell’s Kidney Wax. Pods 6 to 6}4 inches long, quite broad and 
uniformly curved, fleshy, strifigless and brittle, with little fiber.
