Lazy Wife's ’Pole Bean . * & 
Dreer's Wonder Bash Lima 
The Earliest, Dwarfest, most Pro¬ 
lific, and best quality of all. 
This Bush Lima Bean is an improve¬ 
ment on Burpee’s Bush Lima and grows 
absolutely in the bush form, without the 
least sign of a runner. It is also the 
earliest of all Bush Limas. Seed planted 
on June 29 produced fully-matured 
beans August 17 , just seven weeks 
from date. No other Bush Lima has 
such a record for earliness. 
Pkt., 10 c.; 3 for 25c.; pint, 30c., post¬ 
paid. 
Burpee’s Bush Lima* 
Excepting Dreer’s Wonder, this is not 
only the best Bush Lima, but is equal in 
every way to the large White Pole 
Limas. The beans are as large, as rich 
and delicious, and yield as well; the 
plants bear from 50 to 290 pods. Yt is 
early and gro wswithout poles or trouble. 
By all means plant some. At wholesale 
prices. By mail, postpaid, large packet,

Yosemite Mammoth Wax. 
A giant among beans, the pods, fre¬ 
quently reaching a length of 8 to 10 
inches, are of great thickness and solid- 
ity. They are of a rich, goldemyellow 
color and absolutely stringless. 
Pkt., 8 c.; pint, 25c.; qt., 40c., post¬ 
paid. 
This Pole Bean, for so 
many years the favorite 
with our Bucks County 
farmers, has become im¬ 
mensely popular. We 
presume it derived its 
name from its immense 
productiveness and from 
the ease with which they 
are picked and cooked. 
The pods, of medium 
dark-green color, are 
produced in great abund¬ 
ance, and measure from 
four and a half to six 
inches in length; they are 
broad, thick, very fleshy 
and entirely stringless. 
The pods retain their 
rich, tender, and string¬ 
less qualities untilnearly 
ripe, and at all stages are 
unsurpassed for snap- 
shorts, being peculiarly 
luscious. Many persons 
have testified that they 
never ate a bean quite so 
good in distinct, rich 
flavor. Each pod con¬ 
tains from six to eight 
round, white beans, 
which make excellent 
winter shell beans. We 
recommend everyone to 
plant Wife's.
