Yosemite Mammoth Wax. The mon- ster pods of this new variety average 10 to 14 inches in length, are nearly all solid pulp and absolutely stringless, cooking tender and delicious; rich gold- en yellow; a vigorous grower, covering the ground with its heavy foliage. Pkt. 10c, pint 15c, qt. 25c. Golden Wax. A strong-growing, distinct variety, at least a week earlier than the Black Wax. The pods are long, brittle and entirely stringless. As a snap bean it perhaps excls all others in tenderness and richness of flavor. Seeds when ripe, purple and white. Pkt. 10c, pint 15c, qt. 25c. Davis Kidney Wax. The Davis Kid- ney Wax is a new and distinct variety. The plant is vigorous, of compact, up- right growth. The pods are extra long, straight oval, clear, waxy white color and handsome, often growing to a length of seven to eight inches, and, when fit for use, are quite stringless and of fine flavor. Pkt. 10c, pint 15c, qt. 25c. New Valentine Wax. An improved Extra Early Valentine with round wax pods. Grows about 15 inches high, with a strong stalk and an abundance of foliage. One of the earliest Wax Beans in use. The pods are very meaty, and no other Bean has less string or less hard shell to the pod as long as it is suitable for cooking. Remarkably free from rust and remains a long time without becoming tough. Very pro- ductive. Pkt, 10c, pint 15c, qt. 25e. Golden Andalusia Wax POLE BEAN. This new bean has crea- ted a decided sensation wherever grown. The pods are five to six inches long, broad, thick, very fleshy, and entirely string- less, far surpassing all other varieties in this re- spect, and retaining these important qualities until almost ripe. They are of exceedingly rich, but- tery, and fine flavor. The vines cling* well to
