CROSMAX BROTHERS' CATALOGUE. Henderson's Dwarf Lima, a dwarf variety of the well- known Lima Bean, but two weeks earlier and more productive ; flavor delicious ; seeds much smaller than those of the pole variety. Pt. 25c 10 Boston Favorite, or Goddard, red-podded dwarf. Pt. 20c . .10 White Kidney, or Royal Dwarf, a late variety : fine for shell beans. Pt. 20c 10 Red Kidney, similar to the above: seed purplish red. Pt. 80o., 1 pt. 20c 10 White Marrowfat, the very best for baking ; beans large, white. Pt. 20c 10 Dwarf Horticultural, similar to the well-known horticultural pole bean, with the exception of its dwarf habit. Pt. 25c. New Prolific Pickler, a new green-pod variety and is especially adapted for pickling, excellent quality; the pods, when pickled, show up well on account of their freshness in color ; the plant grows about three feet high and is stocky in habit; is a very nice snap bean and stringless when young ; it is extremely hardy and a great bearer of long pods (8 to 10 inches in length) which come in clusters. Pt. 35c., -J pt. 20 10 yellow podded varieties. Challenge Dwarf Black Wax, the earliest of all Wax Beans, making it a pronounced favorite with market gardeners ; the pods are of good size, of rich yellow color and stringless ; seeds black when ripe. Pt. 25c 10 Prolific Black Wax or Butter, early, very tender and solid; the pods are of a waxy yellow, stringless and almost transparent. Pt. 20c 10 Rust-Proof or Improved Golden Wax, pods large, long and brittle, and entirely stringless ; as a snap-bean it excels all others in tenderness and richness of flavor, and is also valuable as a shell bean. Pt. 20c 10 Black-Eyed Wax. one of the earliest beans grown, and worthy of a trial ; seeds white with black spots about the eye. Pt. 20c 10 Golden-Eyed Wax, early, vigorous, and a profuse bearer ; the pods are flat, large and tender ; singularly free from blight and rust. Pt. 20c 10 Wardwell's Kidney Wax, extra early: long, flat, waxy pods; very free from rust. Pt. 20c 10 Red Flageolet Wax. a peculiarly valuable early wax bean ; a decided advantage being their freedom from rust; an enormous yielder of mammoth pods often reaching twelve inches in length : seeds red. Pt. 20c 10 Crystal White Wax, distinct, but not strictly a wax bean ; very desirable for snaps or for pickles ; vines large, spreading, very productive, having many runners, producing pods in pairs throughout their whole length ; blossoms small yellowish-white: pods greenish-white, short, curved, round or thicker than wide, with crease in the back, very fleshy and brittle ; ripe beans, small, oval, white. Pt. 25c 10 Yosemite Mammoth Wax, a valuable variety; enormous pods 8 to 12 inches long, very thick, nearly all solid pulp, rich yellow, and absolutely stringless : exceedingly productive. Pt. 30c ".10 N. B.—All of the beans thus far mentioned are dwarf and require no support. BEANS (Pole or Running). German, 2taiigeit.23ot)iicn. French, Haricots a Ramet. This class of Beans is less hardy than the Dwarfs, and should be planted about the 15th of May, in a rich sandy loam, in as warm a situation as can be found Four plants are sufficient to grow in a hill: set the poles three feet apart each way,
