BEANS, TENDERGREEN. (45 days). A new green podded 
bean of unusual merit. Market gardeners like it 
because it yields a heavy crop of early beans. It is 
also an excellent variety for home garden. Plants 
are large, erect and productive. The pods are long, 
light green in color, round, absolutely stringless 
and of fine quality. Just what you have been wait¬ 
ing for in a green podded stringless bean.

BEANS, HOWARD'S GOLDEN WAX. (46 days). Plants 
are large, sturdy and very productive. Pods golden 
yellow, thick, flat, entirely stringless and brittle. 
This strain is of fine quality and usually free from 
rust. A very desirable market variety. Pods 
average 6 to 6% inches long, Yz inch wide; very

Pkt. 10c; Yz lb. 20c; lb. 30c; 2 lbs. 50c. 
BEET, BOSTON CROSBY. (65 days). We are very proud 
of this early strain. Boston Crosby Beet has a 
deeper shape, a medium size top, and cuts darker 
red than any other early beet. This is a distinctly 
superior early variety, maturing as early as Early 
Wonder. Market gardeners who have tried this 
variety consider it the best. We recommend it 
very highly. 
Pkt. 5c; oz. 10c; % lb. 35c; lb. $1.00. 
CARROT, IMPERATOR. (85 days). A new introduction 
of fine quality. The roots are smooth, taper 
slightly from the rounded shoulder down to the 
semi-blunt tip. The flesh is a rich orange with 
practically no core. This type of carrot meets with 
the increasing demand for somewhat longer car¬ 
rots with fairly broad shoulders. Unsurpassed for 
attractiveness and shipping quality. 
Pkt. 5c; oz. 10c; Yz lb. 35c; 1 lb. $1.10. 
CABBAGE, EARLY JERSEY WAKEFIELD. (60 days). Our 
strain is an extremely early variety, very valuable 
for home and market garden as well as for ship¬ 
ment. Heads are small, conical in shape, compact, 
about 7 inches tall and 5 inches thick near base. 
All the plants produce heads of pointed shape. 
Like all of our seeds, our Early Jersey Wakefield 
Cabbage Seed is selected and adapted to Southern 
soils and climate.

SWEET CORN, STOWELL'S EVERGREEN. (80 days). One 
of the finest and most delicious, late white sweet 
corns grown. It is the standard main crop variety, 
bearing thick ears averaging from 8 to 9% inches, 
having 12 to 14 rows of deep kernels. Valuable 
for canning and much grown for market. Kernels 
very deep, white, sweet and tender; remain in table 
condition a long time.

CUCUMBER, BLACK DIAMOND. (45 days). This vari¬ 
ety is the earliest of all white spine type cucum¬ 
bers. It remains green longer than any other 
variety known. Black Diamond produces a tre¬ 
mendous yield of cylindrical-shaped fruits averag¬ 
ing 8 to 9 inches in length of rich dark green color. 
In productiveness, flavor, appearance and all-round 
good quality, it cannot be surpassed. 
Pkt. 5c; oz. 20c; % lb. 60c; lb. $2.00. 
PEAS, HUNDREDFOLD. (52 days). A really improyed 
variety of English Peas. Resembles the Laxtonian

more prolific. The pods are 4 inches long and well- 
filled with deep green peas of fine quality. The 
vines are very strong, growing 20 inches tall.
