VEGETABLE SEED SPECIALTIES 
ENORMOUS PLANTS. ENORMOUS PODS. 
ENORMOUS YIELDERS. 
These distinct new types of beans are re¬ 
markable for great size of plant and pod and 
wonderful productiveness. They will out- 
yield any other bush bean two to one on 
a given area.. The strong, sturdy plants 
often attain dimensions 24 feet in height, 
and bear great quantities of long, meaty 
pods, measuring 7 to 8 inches in length. 
I he ample foliage sheltering the pods from 
the hot sun renders them exceptionally 
tender, brittle, and if picked before too old 
they arc stringless, free from fibre and of 
fine table quality. 
These varieties are absolutely immune 
from bean diseases. Not a trace of rust, 
blight or mildew has ever appeared on a 
plant or pod in our trial grounds or fields 
during the four years we have been growing 
them. 'I he Hodson Bush Beans come 
in about 2 weeks after the earliest dwarf 
varieties, and for main crops are destined 
to become important for both the private 
table and for market growers on account 
of their phenomenal vigor and productive¬ 
ness. The plants should be thinned out to 
at least 6 inches apart in the rows on 
account of their great size. (See cut.) Price,

This variety is practically identical with the Hodson Long 
Pod Wax described above—with the exception of the color of 
the pods which •are green instead of yellow. It has the same 
vigor, length of pod, productiveness and other qualities which 
have already made the 
Hodson Wax famous.

HENDERSON’S 
Golden Scimitar Wax Bush Bean. 
The Perfection of Cylinder-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 essen¬ 
tial 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., 
35c. qt., $2.00 pk., $7.00 bush. 
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 exceedingly handsome, large, uniformly 
broad, thick and almost all solid flesh, of good 
quality, tender and brittle, absolutelv without 
string or coarse fibre at all stages until matur¬ 
ity, 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 sown in spring, 
summer or early fall, renders it highly 
valuable for both home and market 
planting. (See cut.) Price, 10c.
