BURPEE'S SADDLE-BACK WAX BEAN. This distinct new bean is unequaled in quality. As shown in the painting, the fleshy pods are as thick as they are wide, and absolutely stringless. When the pods are broken between the beans there is no open space, the pods being completely filled with meat, and can be sliced like a cucumber without showing any hollow spaces. The growth of the bush is vigorous, with sufficiently profuse foliage to cover the ground, and very prolific.
