A popular first- early snap-short, with round, yellowish-white pods, of fine flavor. Per pkt. 10 cts.; pint 20 ets.; quart 40 cts. NEW PROLIFIC GERMAN WAX (Cylinder-Pod Dwarf Black Wax). For many years the old Ger- man Black Wax Dwarf Bean has been a great favorite, both with market gardeners and private planters, on account of the tine quality and early maturity of its tender, yellow wax pods. " This new strain originated with a large bean-grower in Genesee County, X. Y., and is exceedingly valuable, not only because of its superiority over "the old strain, but also because of its much greater productiveness. "While it retains all the good qualities of its parent, the pods are straighter, longer, and rounder, while it is more than twice as pro- ductive in yield. Per pkt. 10 cts.; pint 25 cts.; per quart 4-5 cts., postpaid. BLUE-PODDED BUTTER. This is one of the most remarlcable and strikingly odd novelties in Beans ever introduced. The compact, bushy plants grow uni- formly only twelve inches high, and bear abundantly pods five to six inches long, each containing from six to seven beans. The leaves and stems even are of a bright purple color, which becomes more intense as the season advances, and form, when covered with the pinkish-purple flowers and rich, deep-blue pods, a most showy, blackish-purple bush. Beneath the thin, dark- blue skin of the pods the flesh is green and very thick. The entire pods cook a rich green, making a most at- tractive dish on the table, while they are very tender, stringless, and of a rich, delicious flavor. Supply of seed very short. Per pkt. 15 cts.; 2 pkts. for 25 cts. VARIETIES FOR SHELL BEANS. BURPEE'S BUSH LIMA. Hie greatest novelty ever known in Beans. The first and only Large Lima Bush Bean; exclusively owned and introduce
