BKEOK'S SKEWS PROI>CCE PRIZE CROPS THORBURN PROLIFIC MARKET BEAN. An exceedingly vigorous and healthy grower and enormously productive. It is rust-proof to a remarkable degree. The seeds being black, it is likely to remain true to its character longer than light or different-colored beans. The pods are of a light green color, long and perfectly round, solid-fleshed, and of very soft marrow and texture. Per pkt., 10 cts.; pt., 15 cts.; qt., 30 cts. HORTICULTURAL LIMA POLE BEAN. This is described as a cross between the Common Lima and Horticultural beans. It has the shape of the former and color of the latter, while its flavor is a combination of these two finest of beans. It is very prolific, bearing five to seven beans in each pod, and is fully three weeks' earlier than any other Lima. Per pkt., 10 cts.; qt., 30 cts.; pk., $ THORBURN'S VALENTINE WAX BEAN. This is without any exception the earliest Wax Bean in use, being even earlier than our Refugee Wax. Beans planted on June 18 produced pods 4 inches long by July 25, and on August 1 half a crop could be picked. The pods are very meaty, and with so very little string that they may justly be cal'ed stringless. Certainly no other bean has less string or hard shell to the pod as long as they are suitable for cooking. It is the best quality for snap beans of any Wax Bean in use. It is remarkably free from rust, and remains a long time without becoming tough. Pkt., 10 cts.; pt., 20 cts.; qt., 35 cts.; pk., $ So. Presque Isle, Me., Oct. 22, 1895.'
