. Annual catalogue of Harry N. Hammond. Seed industry and trade Michigan Catalogs; Vegetables Catalogs. 30 ANNUAL Hammond's Selected Garden Seeds* As a great many of my customers of years past have requested me to furnish them Choice (Michigan) Northern Grown Garden Seeds, I decided the past season to grow the finest varieties of Beans, Peas and Sweet Corn that I could obtain for my customers. The following list comprises the most profitable varieties to grow. HAMMOND'S BUTTER WAX BEAN. This new wax bean, now first offered, combines hardiness and productiveness with fine quality. It is a vigorous bush variety, with entire freedom from rust. It puts forth short tendrils on which pods are formed, in addition to those near the central stalk of the plant, which accounts for its wonderful productiveness, amounting under favorable conditions, to 100 to 150 fold. The pods are meaty and well filled, of rich yellow color, superb quality, and entirely stringless, even when large enough to shell. If the pods are picked as fast as developed, the plant continues to furnish a bountiful supply for an unusually long season. This most prolific and hardy dwarf wax bean is unquestionably the earliest of all wax beans. Every market gardener should grow this wonderful sort, and every farmer or private gardener should grow at least enough for family use. Prices: Pint, 30 cents; quart, 50 cents; postpaid. By express or freight; pint, 20 cents; quart, 35 cents; four quarts, $; peck, DAVIS' KIDNEY WAX BEAN. A valuable new wax bean, especially recommended for canners, the seed being pure white, with absolutely no eye whatever. Enormously productive, it holds its pods well up from the ground, standing higher than the Golden Wax More beans of this variety can be grown per acre than of any other sort in the wax family. It is just the bean the canners have been looking for. It is also a most desirable variety for table use. It is fully as early as Golden Wax. Stock of this
