(2 lbs. to 100 feet in drill, or 150 hills; 120 lbs. to the acre, in drills) 
Beans require a light friable soil with plenty of moisture. In the garden, the soil should be made 
mellow and rich, and kept so. For garden, a succession of sowings can be made from the first week 
in May until the middle of June. Sow in rows 18 to 24 inches apart and cover from 1 to 2 inches deep, 
but not more. Keep the pods picked and the vines well watered and the Beans will continue bearing 
much longer.

Early Wonder Wax — It is loaded with 
pods, five to seven inches long; flat, 
plump, handsome and meaty, of a clear, 
waxy yellow color. The pods are ten¬ 
der, brittle and of fine texture. We 
claim this is the earliest wax-podded 
Bean. Practically rust-proof; a bounti¬ 
ful yielder, in bearing for long season, 
it is an ideal Bean for the home and 
market gardener. It seems determined 
to yield a crop in good weather or bad. 
55 davs. Pkt., 5c; 44-lb., 15c; 44-lb., 25c; 
1 lb., 35c; 2 lbs., 60c; 5 lbs., $1.20. 
Improved Golden Wax —Probably the best 
known of all Wax Beans; it is an ideal 
Wax Bean; very prolific. Thick fleshed, 
pods flat and stringless. 60 days. Pkt., 
5c; 44-Ib., 15c; 44-lb., 25e; 1 lb., 35c; 2 
lbs., 60c; 5 lbs., $1.20. 
Sure Crop Stringless Wax— The pods aver¬ 
age 6 to 7 inches long, are very meaty, 
flat but thick through, and we have 
never found a stringy specimen. Sure 
Crop Stringless Wax is very hardy and 
may therefore be planted several days 
earlier than the light seeded varieties. 
65 days. Pkt., 5c; 44-lb., 15c; %-lb., 25c; 
1 lb., 35c; 2 lbs., 60c; 5 lbs., $1.20. 
Black Wax—Pencil Pod 
Davis White Wax—Extra Early— This is also called 
the Davis White Kidney Wax. It is a well known 
variety. The pods are remarkably long, about 
six inches, sometimes longer. They are hand¬ 
some, light yellow, crisp and tender. 55 days. 
Pkt., 5c; 44-lb.. 15c; 44-lb., 25c; 1 lb., 35c; 2 lbs., 
60c; 5 lbs., $1.15. 
Black Wax—Pencil Pod —-Has great clusters of 
beautiful straight yellow pods six to seven 
inches long, well rounded, deeply “saddle backed,” 
meaty, and they are brittle, of rich, mild flavor, 
and entirely stringless. An early sure cropper; 
of the finest quality. 65 days. Pkt.. 5c; 44-lb., 
15c; 44-lb., 25c; 1 lb., 35c; 2 lbs., 60c; 5 lbs., $1.20. 
Brittle Stringless Wax—“A very popular Bean”— 
Without a doubt the earliest of all Wax Beans, 
also a great cropper, very hardy and extremely 
prolific; the pods are round, fleshy and entirely 
stringless, often measuring 4 44 to 6 inches long. 
They are of fine flavor, solid and tender. Pkt., 
5c; 44-lb., 15c; 44-lb., 25c; 1 lb., 35c; 2 lbs., 60c; 
5 lbs., $1.20. 
BEANS—BUSH LIMA 
(One pound will plant 50 feet of row) 
Lima Beans are very susceptible to cold and the 
seed must not be planted until the ground has be¬ 
come thoroughly warm. The end of May is usu¬ 
ally safe. Plant the seed edgewise (eye down) 6 
inches apart in the row and cover two inches deep 
with fine soil. They should be sown on well en¬ 
riched ground. 
Henderson’s Bush Lima —This variety belongs to 
the small Limas, known as Carolina or Sieva 
Lima Beans. On account of their hardiness they 
are worth growing in the North, where they will 
mature early and produce an enormous crop. The 
flavor is delicious and sweet; bear tremendously, 
each pod being filled with flat light green Beans. 
Pkt., 5c; 44-Ib., 15c; 44-lb., 25c; 1 lb., 35c; 2 lbs., 
65c; 5 lbs., $1.40. 
Burpee’s Bush Lima —Each plant develops into a 
rounded bush from 2 to 3 feet in diameter and 
from 18 to 24 inches tall. Pods are uniform in 
size with an average of five large Beans to a 
pod. They are thin-skinned and of fine flavor, 
and immense yielders. The pods are borne in 
clusters and are easily gathered. Pkt., 5c; 44-lb., 
15c; 44-lb., 25c; 1 lb., 35c; 2 lbs., 65c; 5 lbs., $1.40. 
I strong stimulant for young growing plants, f 
J Vegetables grown for their leaves and stems, I 
I like Lettuce, Cabbage, Celery, etc., can be im- f 
j proved by a light application or two of Ni- I 
• trate of Soda in the early growing period, f 
« Nitrate of Soda is readily soluble. Use one I 
I ounce to three gallons or one pound to fifty f 
j gallons of water. Apply this in small amounts 
I some little distance from the plant. Repeat j 
T in from 20 to 30 days. See Index. 
Henderson’s Bush Lima 
English or Broad Windsor — This Bean is very 
hardy. Plant as soon as the soil is in good con¬ 
dition. Plant four inches apart and 2 inches 
deep in drills three feet apart, to insure well 
filled pods; pinch off the tops as soon as pods 
begin to set. 65 days. Pkt., 5c; 44-lb., 20c; 44- 
lb., 35c; 1 lb., 60c.
