BRITTLE WAX. This is without a doubt the earliest of all wax beans and 
also a great cropper. The bushes are remarkably hardy and extremely prolific, 
while the pods are fleshy and entirely stringless often measuring 4 y 2 to 6 inches. 
Fine flavor, round and solid, tender, brittle and entirely stringless at all stages of 
growth. The beans are white except for small black dot near the eye. Also 
fine as a shell bean. 
PENCIL POD BLACK WAX. One of the finest strains of wax beans known. 
It is very early, enormously productive and of the very best quality. It has 
long, slender handsome pods, that cook so tender they melt in the mouth, and 
are the most delicious bean we have ever found. 
IMPROVED GOLDEN WAX. An im¬ 
provement over the well known Golden 
Wax. It is one of the earliest and best 
of the wax beans. The plants are 
erect, compact and very productive. 
The pods are medium size, broad and 
fleshy. The quality is very fine. 
GOLDEN EYED WAX. One of the 
best. Its pods or leaves never rust or 
spot like some others, and it is blight 
proof. Entirely stringless; flesh ten¬ 
der and of excellent quality and flavor. 
Shell Beans 
DWARF GOLDEN CARMINE. This 
splendid new bean can be used either 
as a snap or shell bean. When ripe, 
owing to its large seed, makes a fancy 
baking bean. It has a large, broad, 
long, golden-yellow pod, splashed with 
bright carmine. At all stages, the pod 
is entirely stringless and tender, mak¬ 
ing it very desirable as a snap variety. 
The seed is large, kidney-shaped, buff- 
colored, and mottled. 
DAVIS WHITE WAX. A popular 
white seeded, wax podded bean of su¬ 
perior merit. The pod is large and 
when young is crisp and tender. One 
of the main uses of this variety, how¬ 
ever, is as a dried bean for winter use, 
for which purpose it is unsurpassed. 
DWARF HORTICULTURAL, or “Cranberry Bean.” This well known bean is 
very sturdy and prolific. The beans, which are speckled, bright red on a yellowish 
ground, are quite large and uniform and are very fine either for eating as green 
shell beans or as dried beans for winter use. There are few beans which will 
surpass the Dwarf Horticultural, either in quantity or sureness of yield. 
BOSTON PEA BEAN. Also called White Navy. This 
is the best of the small white beans known as navy 
beans for the Northwest. The bean is small, oval, white 
and of excellent flavor for baking. The plant does not 
run to vine and the leaves are few and drop early.
