The Most 
[Remarkable 
Bush Beans Century, The Hodson Lon^-Pod Wax 
The Hodson Lon^ Green Pod. 
ENORMOUS PLANTS. ENORMOUS PODS. 
ENORMOUS VIELDERS. 
NEVER AFFECTED BY RUST AND BLIGHT. 
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 giv^en 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. 
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 taVjle quality. 
These varieties are absolutely immune 
from bean diseases. Not a trace of rvist, 
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. The 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 G inches apart in the rows on 
account of their great size. (See cut.)

HENDERSON’S OoldCR Scimltar BusK Bean. 
THE PERFECTION OF CYLINDER-PODDED DWARF WAX BEANS. 
T his 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 combina¬ 
tion 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 varietv; they are very solid, meaty and tender, free from 
string, breaking brittle, and the flavor is unsurpassed.. These de¬ 
sirable table cjualities arc 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., 
36c. 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 earl}^ and very prolific. The pods are exceed¬ 
ingly handsome, large, uniformly bi'oad, thick and almost all solid 
nesh, 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 
wds, whether sown in spring, summer or early fall, renders it 
highly valuable for both home and market planting. (See cut.)
