Jones’ Stringless Wax BEAN.... 
A FINE WHITE SEEDED VARIETY WITH ROUND, STRINGLESS 
PODS OF UNSURPASSED BEAUTY AND QUALITY. 
This is the result of crossing- a white seeded sort with the Yosemite. thus developing the good qualities of that variety to 
a superlative degree, and eliminating its faults-shy hearing and imperfect pods. The Jones' Stringless Wax is wonderfully 
productive of uniformly well shaped and handsome pods. The plant is exceedingly hardy, rust proof and productive. It 
matures the long, round, fleshy, stringless pods very early and ripens its crop of seed earlier than the earliest of our field 
beans, so that it will prove a valuable sort for the farm jus well as the garden. The ripe beans are salable as No. 1 Medium 
and are of superior quality for culinary use. This feature makes the sort of especial value to market gardeners, since, if for 
any reason there is no sale for them jus snaps, the value of the dry beans will make the crop a remunerative one. Every 
farmer and gardener should try it. See cut page 12. Pkt. 15c; Pt. 50c; Qt. S5c.

... DETROIT DARK RED TURNIP BEET... 
The best deep red turnip beet, not only for market gardeners, but for the home garden as well. 
Investigation will generally prove that the finest formed and handsomest colored turnip beets found in any market are 
grown from our stock of Detroit Dark Red Turnip. Certainly no other stock can equal it in the uniformity and beauty of 
the crop produced, and no gardener who plants it once will feel that he can afford to use any other. 
It is not only of fine shape and excellent quality, but is exceedingly early, 
and of such compact growth that it will produce more marketable beets on a given area than any other kind. See descrip¬ 
tion and cut page 18. Pkt. 5c; Oz. 10c; 2 Oz. 15c; kg Lb* 25c; Lb. 75c. 
Golden "Yellow Large Solid, or—^ 
Golden Self Blanching Celery 
Critical gardeners depend upon our stock of this sort to produce their finest early celery. It certainly is far 
superior in quality to much that is sold, and the planter who uses it once never cares to risk using any other. We have 
secured such stock by taking especial pains to develop one not only free from green and other deteriorated plants, but in 
which the comparatively short, thick stalks shall have the crisp, tender texture and nut like flavor which makes this the 
best early sort. See also description and cut page 28. Pkt. 5c; Oz. 85c; 2 Oz. 60c; H Lb. $1.00; Lb. $3.50 
Evans’ Triumph Celery 
A5 GROWN BY US THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST OF THE LATE VARIETIES. 
The very large, solid, crisp, tender stalks are not only very beautiful but of superb quality. When it is possible to secure 
such pure and well bred stocks of Golden Yellow Large Solid, Rose Ribbed Paris and Evans' Triumph Celery as we offer 
there is nothing further to be desired, and every private garden should have them. No wide-awake gardener will be with¬ 
out them. See cut and further description page 30. Pkt. 5c; Oz. 30c; 2 Oz. 55c; kg Lb. $1.00; Lb. $3.00 
Ferry’s Early Evergreen Corn 
We have tested many samples of corn which were claimed to be earlier than Stowell's Evergreen, and just as good, but 
we have never found any of them valuable. For several years we have been selecting and developing this variety which we 
offer with the statement, backed by careful tests made bcjtli in the trial grounds and in the field, that 
It will furnish ears fully equal in size and quality 
to the Evergreen and maturing much earlier. 
The cars are like the Evergreen, very large, with about eighteen, more or less irregular rows and a very long grain which 
is of the very best quality. It remains in condition for use longer than other sorts, exceeding the Stowell’s in this respect. 
The plant and ear would be pronounced by observers to be a fine stock of the old variety though fit for use one to two weeks 
earlier. Pkt. 10c; Pt. 15c; (Jt. 20c; 4 Qts. 60c; Bushel $3.00. See also page 32.
