PLANT LANDRETHS' STRINGLESS GREEN POD 
BUSH BEANS—Continued—Wax or Golden Podded 
Currie’s Rustproof Wax—60 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 Stringless—62 Days 
Height of vine 15 to 18 inches, beans large, white, 
kidney shaped. Length of pod 6 to 7 inches, con¬ 
taining 5 or 6 beans. Pods handsome, long, flat, 
almost straight, very stringless, light yellow in 
color, productive. A decided improvement over the 
old style. 
Davis Kidney Wax—62 Days 
This is the old style Davis, the same as the String¬ 
less except that the pods are stringy and become 
more so as they grow older. 
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 
handsome 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—64 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—62 Days 
This bean is, we believe, one of the best introduced 
in recent years, because, while the seed resembles 
Round Pod Kidney Wax, it is white in color except 
for a small dark eye, 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.
