HENDERSON’S 
Black Valentine 
GREEN-PODDED BUSH BEAN 
Possesses all the merits of our old favorite Red 
Valentine, and the pod is fully one-third longer. 
In addition it has other valuable points. The pods 
are extra long, round, straight and tender, and 
of a beautiful soft green color. It is also equally 
early, but has another advantage in that it is 
more suitable for late planting. In a test of the 
Extra Early Refugee, Henderson’s Earliest Red 
Valentine and Black Valentine, conducted in the 
fall, we found that Black Valentine was fully as 
useful as Extra Early Refugee, being equally as 
hardy in every respect as the Refugee, while the 
beans were produced in enormous quantities. 
For any purpose, or at any time of the year, this 
bean will be found exceedingly valuable to all 
classes of growers. (See engraving.) Price, 10c. 
pkt., 35c. pt., 60c. qt., $2.25 for 4 qts. 
"7 claim that IIendcrson'sBlack Valentine Bean is the 
champion of all the dwarf green-podded snap beans, for 
1 have tested all the good 
varieties. The Black Valen¬ 
tine is the best for both early 
and late planting and will 
stand wet, cold weather. It 
is of the finest quality, easy to 
pick, and is the ?nost pro¬ 
ductive bean on the market 
today, but they must be gath¬ 
ered at the right time." 
S. E. THURSTON, 
New Catiaan, Conn. 
"The 'Country Gentleman' 
collection of vegetable seeds 
were all first class, and even 
better than any seed I ever 
planted."

HENDERSON’S 
Earliest Red Valentine 
GREEN-PODDED DWARF SNAP BEAN 
Fait Round, Meaty Pod. Remains Long Fit for Use. 
This grand variety is a great improvement over the original Red 
Valentine, as it is very much earlier, and remains fit for use for a 
long time. The healthy, vigorous plants are unusually hardy, suc¬ 
cessfully withstanding early frosts: it may therefore be planted very ; 
early. It will always yield a large crop of handsome, long, round, I 
fleshy pods, rich green in color and of unsurpassed tenderness when 
gathered young, when it is practically stringless. It is the Standard 
Snap Bean, not only for the earliest, but for successive plantings, 
bearing up to frost. Price, 10c. pkt., 30c. pt., 55c. qt., $2.00 for 4 qts. 
“ Your Earliest Red Valentine Beans are the best I ever raised. I have 
had Beans from nine different seedsmen, but none equal Henderson's." 
R. D. MILLER, Gainesville, Ga 
“From half-a-pint of Henderson's Earliest Red Valentine Bush Beans 
we gathered bfi bushels of pods." 
JOHN B. BLACKIE, Altoona, Pa. 
“7 prefer Henderson's Earliest Red Valentine Bush Beans to any other 
I ever used." MISS S A LLIE THOMAS, 
2001 Terrace, Place, Nashville, Tcnn. 
" Our vegetables grown from Henderson's seeds were more abundant and 
belter than I have ever seen them. We only planted our bush beans for table 
use, but they were abundant — we had to sell part of them." 
MISS SARAH II UD NALL, Lynchburg, Va. 
"We have been having for some lime all the siring beans we could 7 ise, 
while those of our neighbors arc just in blossom 
Mrs. WM. LEIGHTON , Concord , N. 77. 
HENDERSON’S 
Extra Early Refugee 
GREEN-PODDED BUSH BEAN 
This variety is a decided improvement on the 
old Refugee or 1,000 to 1, as it is fully two weeks 
earlier. It has all the good qualities of the 'old 
Refugee, being wonderfully productive. The pods 
are of good form, very fleshy, free from 
string and very tender. Almost certain 
to produce a crop even in unfavorable 
seasons. Should be in every garden. (See 
engraving.) Price, 10c. pkt., 35c. pt., 60c. qt„ 
$2.25 for 4 qts. 
"Henderson's Early Refugee Beans are very fine and were 
loaded with blossoms in four weeks’ time. My peas, too, 
are very fine, and they will 
be ready to cat on June 1 6th 
(Sunday), five weeks and 
one day since planting, 
and that on poor soil.” 
G. F. SCIIROEDER, 
Wilkes-Barre, Pa. 
If part of your garden is higher , warmer, or belter drained than the rest, reserve it for your crop of earliest vegetables . Your garden will be 
ready for working a week earlier in spring , if it was dug up in the fall .
