Prices on Application 
GIANT STRINGLESS.—Color of seed, yellow. Long, cylindrical 
pods entirely stringless. Height of vine, 13 to 15 inches. Foliage re¬ 
sembles Full Measure. Not so early by 2 or 3 days as the older String¬ 
less. Pods similar to Stringless but slightly longer and straighter. 
A more showy pod, about 6 inches long, containing 6 to 7 beans to pod. 
8 > 2 C per lb. 
REFUGEE STRINGLESS (ROGER’S)—This Bean is vastly 
superior to the old Refugee or 1000 to 1. It has all its good qualities 
and in addition is absolutely stringless at all stages of growth. Is 
practically identical in habits of growth to the 1000 to 1, except the 
leaves may be slightly more pointed and the foliage a trifle more yellow, 
six or seven days earlier. A valuable introduction. 8 c per lb. 
NEW STRINGLESS OR TENDERGREEN.—Color of seed resem¬ 
bles Refugee Stringless. Height of vine, 17 inches, not quite as dark 
foliage as Landreths' Stringless. Pods 6 inches long, round, almost 
straight, meaty. 5 or 6 beans in a pod. Not as productive as Landreths’ 
Stringless. Resembles Full Measure, but hardier and more dependable. 
Will undoubtedly take the place of Full Measure with Market Gar¬ 
deners and Canners. 
LANDRETHS’ STRINGLESS GREEN POD—This bean is from 
an individual plant Trial Ground selection from the Burpee’s Stringless 
Green Pod. We made a new selection eleven years ago from one in¬ 
dividual plant and have propagated it ever since, so that our stock is 
the product of this plant. The color of the seed is brown, kidney 
shaped; vine is more erect with a darker foliage and a longer slimmer 
pod than the old type of Burpee’s Stringless; pods and vines stay 
green longer than the original type; pods six to eight inches long do 
not turn yellow, slightly curved, meaty, absolutely stringless and 
I ree from fibers. This is undoubtedly the best round podded bean in 
I he market today for home garden, market gardeners, or canners. It 
is much superior to the Giant Stringless. The vine is 17 to 18 inches 
high with i or 8 beans in a pod. Will produce 10% to 15%, more pods 
in weight than any other bean. We cannot recommend Landreths’ 
Stringless Green Pod too highly. In sections where we have grown this 
bean it has produced an average of five bushels to the acre more dry 
beans than any other. We can say justly it is the best, most disease 
resistant and most productive bean in existence today. 10 c per lb. 
LOWE’S CHAMPION.—Color of seed, crimson, almost round; pods 
flat, green, stringless, broad almost straight; vine, 11 to 12 inches. 
Golden Wax Pods 
REFUGEE STRINGLESS WAX.—A variety not excelled in every 
good quality. Pods round, crisp, curved, meaty, bone-white, productive. 
A sort hard to beat. Stringless. 10c per lb. 
ROUND PODDED KIDNEY WAX OR BRITTLE WAX -An im¬ 
provement on Wardwell’s Flat Pod; quite as early, as long and as 
productive, while more showy and decidedly more luscious because 
more meaty. The pods are round, full of meat, entirely stringless and 
very brittle; the color lemon-yellow; the seeds are large and white with 
purplish eyes when dry. Height 12 inches. 
WARDWELL’S KIDNEY WAX.— A long, half-flat golden pod. A 
very productive sort. Dry seeds, kidney formed, color white with 
dashes of light purple about a white eye. 
NEW KIDNEY WAX. —This new introduction is, we believe, one of 
t he best made in recent years, because, while the seed resembles Round 
Pod Kidney Wax, they are white in color, with a very slight dark eye, 
making them 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. 
Henderson’s 
Bush or Dwarf Limas 
DWARF LIMA, HENDERSON’S.— This bean, in three distinct 
colors, was introduced by us in 1885 before it was given the above 
name. We called it Dwarf Carolina. Height 1 foot, compact; leaves 
small, exceedingly dark green; very productive and early.
