Per pint, 15 cts ; qt., 30 cts ; peck, $1 50 ; bush,, $ Perfection Dwarf Wax.—This variety is of recent introduc- tion, and a hybrid of the Scarlet Flageolet Dwarf Wax, 7hich has proved itself not only quite a distinct variety, but one of great value, both for the mar- ket gardener and for private use; it is a vigo- rous grower and very "productive, produc- ing magnificent large golden yellow po-ls, entirely stringless, Early Dwarf Speckled Kidney Wax Butter.— This variety was introduced in 1887, its great merits are rapidly becoming appreciated; we regard it as one of the very best of the Wax varieties, even surpassing the famous Dwarf Golden or Cream Wax in both quality and productiveness, and is a grand market sort; the plants become literally loaded with long beautiful waxy colored pods, which are entirely stringless, and of a rich luscious flavor, it is also quite as early as the earliest stock of Valentines The pods are very long, broad and flat, and are exceedingly brittle; beans, when dry, are white, with two shades of reddish-purple, more or less visible, of a distinct kidney shape. We cannot recom- mend it too highly for either market or family use. Per pint, 15 cts.; qt., 30 cts.; peck, $ ; bush., $ Golden-Eyed Wax.—This is an early and a vigorous growing variety, yielding a great profusion of tender pods of a beautiful waxy appearance. The vine grows about one and a half feet high, holding the pods well off the ground, thus keeping them clean and attractive. It is singularly free from blight and rust; in this respect it has stood the test well from the first year of its introduction. The pods are flat, larger than the Golden Wax, and nearly as large as the Flageolet Wax. Per pint, 15 cts
