Black Wax, or Butter.— The finest of all Snap sorts. Pods transparent, waxy yel¬ 
low, and snap like pipe-stems, boils rich as butter, and, when highly seasoned, 
are luscious. They are thick and very tender, entirely stringless and fully as 
early as the Valentine. One of the best market varieties. If you have never 
grown them do so this season, and I guarantee you will not regret it. The bean, 
when ripe. Is black. Per packet, 10 cents; pint, 20; quart, 30; peck, $1.50; per 
bushel.$5.60^ 
Low’s Champion Bush Bean. —This new variety of Bush Bean is well adapted to 
the table, garden, and market, being entirely stringless, extremely tender, and 
of exquisite flavor. Pods light-green in color, large and long In' shape, contain¬ 
ing five to eight beans each. It is wonderfully productive—seven and a half 
bushels, clean, hand-picked Seed Beans having been picked from one-eighth of 
an acre. Per packet, 10 cents; pint, 20 cents; quart, 30 cents; peck.$1.76. 
Crystal White Wax.—A new variety of very rich flavor. The pods are waxy white, 
almost as transparent as glass, and stringless. The pods, although growing to a 
good size very rapidly, do not harden soon, and Snap Beane of this variety can 
be had tender and sweet for a long time. Per packet, 10 cents; plot, 20 cents; 
quart, 85 cents; peck...$1.76. 
ifory-Pod Wax.—This new and magnificent variety cannot be praised too highly, 
either tor snap beans, or shell beans for Winter use, and is, without doubt, the 
Tree Bean, Prolific. 
most prolific of any of our garden beans. The pods are fit tor the table at least 
a week earlier than the Black Wax, are long, brittle, stringless, of a transparent 
Ivory-white, tender, succulent, and of rich creamy flavor. Per packet, 10 cents; 
pint, 20 cents; quart, 30 cents ; lour quarts, 90 cents; peck.$1.65. 
Lemon-Pod Late Wax.—This variety, unlike the Ivory-Pod Wax Bean, is very long 
in coming into bloom, and is valued for continued bearing and great productive¬ 
ness. The pods are long, handsome, very tender, rich and entirely stringless. 
It is deservedly popular to extend the season for snaps or pickling, and as a 
green sheli bean for succotash. The large white beans are also good lor Winter 
use. Per packet, 10 cents; pint, 20 cents; quart, 35 cents; peck, $1.65; per 
bushel.$6.00. 
New Prolific Tree Bean.—This variety, for field 
culture, is very prolific. It is what its name 
implies—a Tree Bean. Grows to the height 
of eighteen to twenty Inches, branching out 
in all directions, bearing its pods so high that 
they do not touch the ground, enabling it to 
stand a wet spell without injury to the crop. 
All know, who have raised beans, that where 
the pod lies in contact with the ground after 
ripening, a very little rain will ruin the crop, 
turning the pods and beans black. The seed, 
which is pure white, somewhat resembles the 
common Navy Bean, but is more rounded at 
the ends. Per packet, 10 cents; pint, 15 cents; 
quart, 30 cents; four quarts, 75 cents; peck, 
$1.25; bushel.$4.50. 
Green Gem, or Wonder of France. 
—A very productive Bush Bean, 
with long, straight pods; of 
good quality as snap-ohorts 
when young. Both pods and 
beans are of a beautiful green 
color. Inside as well as outside. 
The bright green color of the 
bean is retained even when 
cooked. I know of no other 
shell beaus that make so hand¬ 
some a dish, while in quality 
they are unsurpassed. Their 
flavor is peculiarly rich and 
luscious, fully equal to Lima 
Beans. The beans are of ob¬ 
long shape, resembling the 
Green Flageolet, of which this 
new variety is a decided im- 
provement( To obtain the fresh 
green color the shell beans lor 
Winter use, the plants must be 
pulled before the pods become 
yellow, and should be stacked 
in heaps to dry, protected from 
the sun; otherwise the dry 
beans will be white in color— 
but equally as good. Per pack¬ 
et, 10 cents; pint, 20 cents; 
quart, 30 cents; four quarts, 
90 cents; peck, $1.50; pe^ 
bushel.$5.00. 
Canadian Wonder (Rose Bean, or 
Red Flageolet).—In growth the plant is dwarf and compact. The pods, pro¬ 
duced in great abundance, are very lender when young, and grow from ten to 
fourteen inches in length. For string beans it is only fair, but lor fresh shelled 
beans (cooked like Lima Beans) few other varieties can approach it in rich, de¬ 
licious flavor and handsome appearance. Per packet, 10 cents; quart, 25 cents; 
two quarts, 40 cents; four quarts, 76 cents; peck, $1.25; bushel.$4.50 
BEANS—Pole or Running, 
^Iipr-Add 16 cents per pint, 80 cents per quart, for postage. If beans are or¬ 
dered sent by mall; packets mailed free. 
These are usually planted in hills and trained to poles, which should be eight to 
ten feet long, and firmly set in the ground from three and a half to lour feet apart 
each way. Draw around them a hill of earth, and plant four or five Beans to each 
hill, one inch deep, always observing to plant the eye of the Bean down, which will 
cause it to produce a stronger plant and grow more freely. When the plants have 
reached the tops of the poles pinch off the ends. This will cause greater fruitful 
ness.
