They are fleshy, ten- der, and excellent, and are ready for the table earlier than any other wax kind, except the Black-eyed Wax. The bean, which is white with dark markings around the eyes, is larger than most other wax beans. DAVIS WAX—A hardy, rustless, and immensely productive bush variety. The pods are long, nearly straight, white and handsome; cooked when young, they are tender, juicy, and of fine flavor. The dried bean is kidney-shaped, clear white, and a favorite for baking and canning. This new variety is rapidly achieving popularity with canners and market gardeners. CURRIE'S RUST=PROOF WAX.—Another good, rust-proof variety, prolific and vigorous. Pods resemble the last preceding; bean bluish black; season about the same as Wardwell's. RUST=PROOF or DETROIT WAX. —Excelling in some respects any other wax variety. Is not likely to rust even when exposed to very wet weather. Pods flat, good length, and very broad. Its quality of keeping fresh and crisp a long time after being picked makes it valuable for shipping long distances. It is extra early; quality in the pod all that can be desired, and also excellent green shelled. PROLIFIC GERMAN WAX, BLACK SEEDED.—This is a new kind, and an improvement on the German Wax. It is very prolific, yielding a larger crop than any other bush variety. The pods are large, of a creamy color, and good qual- ity. The bean is rather small and glossy black.

VIOLET FLAGEOLET WAX.—This is a strong grower, holding its abunda
