THE HODSON LONG POD 
WAX BUSH BEAN 
ENORMOUS PLANTS ENORMOUS PODS 
-— ENORMOUS Y1ELDERS = .= 
This distinct new type of Bean is remarkable for great 
size of plant and pod and wonderful productiveness. 
It will out-yield any other Bush Bean two to one 
on a given area. The strong, sturdy plants often 
attain dimensions 2 feet in height, and bear 
great quantities of long, meaty yellow pods, 
measuring 7 to 8 inches in length. The ample 
foliage sheltering the pods from the hot sun 
renders them exceptionally tender, brittle, and 
if picked before too old they are stringless, 
free from fibre and of fine table quality. 
The Ilodson Wax Bush Bean comes in about 
2 weeks after the earliest dwarf varieties, and 
for main crop is destined to become impor¬ 
tant for both the private table and for market 
growers on account of its phenomenal vigor 
and productiveness. The plants should be 
thinned out to- at least 6 inches apart in the 
rows on account of their great size. This 
variety is absolutely immune from Bean 
diseases. (See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. pt., 
35c. qt., $1.25 for four qts., $2.00 pk. 
“7 picked Beans from July 1st to Sept. 1st off your Hodson 
Wax. They are unequalled—so large and lender, I like them better 
than any wax Bean 1 ever tried.” 
J. E. ADAMS, Topeka, Kan. 
“ Your Hodson Long Pod Wax Beans did well with me. A single 
planting bore continuously from July until frost. ,T

HENDERSON’S 
Golden Scimitar Wax Bush Bean 
THE PERFECTION OF CYLINDEK-PODDED DWARF WAX BEANS 
This new round-podded Dwarf Wax Bean has attained the top 
notch among Beans of this class. It has been so highly bred and 
selected that it excels all others in its combination of essential 
qualities, among which are remarkable uniformity in size and 
shape. It produces no culls, the pods average five to six inches 
in length, which is unusually large for a round-podded, wax 
variety; they are very solid, meaty and tender, free from string, 
breaking brittle, and the flavor is unsurpassed. These desirable 
table qualities are retained well on towards maturity, long 
after many other sorts have become too tough and stringy to use. 
The plant is everything desirable, bushy and robust, free from 
rust or mildew, and extremely prolific. Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. 
pt., 30c. qt., $1.00 for four qts., $1.75 pk. 
“The Golden Scimitar Wax Beans surpassed any other in beauty, crop and 
quality.” F. F. WALKER, South Sudbury, Mass. 
Improved Golden Wax Bush Bean 
THE STANDARD FLAT, WAX-PODDED VARIETY 
Among the Yellow Wax-podded or “Butter” Beans, the 
Golden Wax has long been in popular favor, but this Improved 
variety by far surpasses the old favorite in several desirable 
points. The plants are of vigorous, bushy growth, not susceptible 
to rust, moderately early and very prolific. The pods are ex¬ 
ceedingly handsome, large, uniformly broad, thick and almost 
all solid flesh, of good quality, tender and brittle, absolutely 
without string or coarse fibre at all stages until maturity, while 
the color is of a rich golden-yellow. Although not the earliest 
dwarf wax Bean, its reliability in producing a heavy crop of large 
handsome pods, whether planted in spring, summer or early fall, 
renders it highly valuable for both home and market planting. 
(See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. pt., 30c. qt., $1.00 for four qts., 
$1.75 pk. 
“ Your Improved Golden Wax Beans are all you claim for them and more. 
They are almost absolutely without strings, even after fully matured.” 
W. M. McCREIGHT, Cheraw, S. C.
