Giant French Wax. A recent introduction from France. This wax bean 
has proved in the United States to be all there is claimed for it. Giant 
in production of large pods, 8 inches long, of a beautiful transparent 
golden color. Will grow 8 ft. high and are simply loaded down with 
immense loads of pods filled with a large quantity of fine beans. A basket 
filler of pods or shelled beans. We believe this bean will be planted more 
than all others as soon as better known. Demands good soil.

large fine beans. Good dry or green, if gathered will continue to set a 
large crop until frost. Should be in every¬ 
one’s garden. 
Lazy Wife. This bean is surely a wonder 
in production and lasting qualities, gives 
general satisfaction. Everyone who saw 
this bean last year was immensely pleased. 
Pole Limas 
Carpinteria. A new early variety, which 
bears abundantly, with 3 to 5 large, meaty 
beans to the pod. These are of rarest fla¬ 
vor and quality, retaining their distin¬ 
guishing green color even after being 
dried. We would say this sort is one of 
the very best. 14 lb-, 10c; 14 lb., 20c;

King - of the Garden Lima. The old

Select Beet 
Carpinteria Lima Beans 
Beets 
Giant French Wax Beans 
Our beet seed is of the best carefully selected 
stock and true to name. 
Prices on all beets: 14 oz., 5c; 1 oz., 10c; 
14 lb., 20c; 1 lb., 75c. 
Alien’s Select. Several years ago we noticed 
in a bed of Crosby’s Egyptian, a beet that 
grew faster and larger, and matured earlier 
than the rest. After carefully testing and 
saving the seed, we became convinced that 
this beet is not only of commercial value, but 
deserves trial by all lovers of beets. It is 
globular in shape, dark red color, fine flavored 
and a good keeper. Ripens early, excellent 
for greens. We can spare only a limited 
quantity of this seed. 
Crimson Globe. From England and still one 
of the best globe-shaped beets. Can be mar¬ 
keted early. 
Crosby’s Egyptian Improved. A quick 
grower, best quality, good for forcing in- or 
out-of-doors. Roundish, well-colored, a favor¬ 
ite with market gardeners in this section. 
Our seed is fresh and will satisfy. 
Detroit Dark Red. Small tops, can be placed 
close. Very sweet, fine for table use. 
Eclipse. Early and smooth, roundish, good 
quality. Can’t be beat. 
Ohio Canner. This beet has been developed 
to meet the exacting demands of the canner 
for a smooth, perfectly formed beet with deep 
colored flesh. It is the result of the inbreed¬ 
ing of many generations of beets by the Ohio 
Agricultural Experiment Station. The tops 
are small and dark colored. The roots are 
uniformly round in shape with a small tap 
root. Flesh is intense deep blood-red without 
any trace of light zones. The smooth sym- 
metrical form and superior color are combined to make this the most 
perfect canning and pickling beet yet developed. Commercial growers 
will find here a splendid paying sort for shipping to markets demand¬ 
ing beets of superior quality. It is also a splendid variety for the home 
garden because of the fine table quality. 
Mangel Wurzel 
Golden Tankard.. A big cropper of long, round shape, skin golden 
yellow. Claimed to contain more sugar and richness than any other. 
14 oz., 5c; 1 oz., 10c; 14 lb., 20c; 1 lb., 60c. 
Mammoth Long - Red. Grows to an immense size in good soil, has 
yield of 1400 to 2000 bushels per acre. Every farmer should grow 
14 acre of these for his hogs, chickens, cows or any stock. This is our 
largest seller and always satisfies. 14 oz., 5c; 1 oz., 10c; 14 lb., 20c; 
1 lb., 60c; 5 lbs., $2.50. 
Sugar Beets 
Our Sugar Beet Seed is grown by an expert in the heart of the sugar 
beet district of Michigan and we feel that no one can place a finer or 
fresher article, for near this price, on the market. He grows beets for 
the sugar factory himself and knows the necessity of good, pure seed. 
Klein Wanzleben. The most cultivated and probably the best heavy 
yielder. 14 oz., 5c; 1 oz., 10c; 14 lb., 15c; 1 lb., 50c. 
Prices Quoted are Postage Paid; Guaranteed Safe Arrival to Your Mail Box.
