Bush Limas —

We offer the two greatest varieties of Bush Limas. Our
seed is all bright, new and fresh crop of 1906. It’s all

“top notch’’ quality—none better than ours, and the price
is right. f

BURPEE’S BUSH LIMA—The leading lima bean; grows
to a height of 18 to 20 inches, forming a circular bush
over two feet in diameter. Requires no poles or stakes
and is a tremendous yielder. The pods are of large size
and each pod produces 3 to 4 mammoth beans of fine
flavor and tenderness. The largest bush lima bean grown.

HENDERSON’S BUSH LIMA —This is the earliest lima
bean; not so large as the Burpee, but is earlier. They
are very productive and grow in compact form, without
poles or stakes, and produce large crops of delicious
beans which can he easily gathered. What they lack
in size they make up in earliness, hardiness, and continu-
ous productiveness. They are 10 days ahead of any other :

KENTUCKY WONDEK —I consider this one of the best aid most profitable beans
grown. The pods usually measure over 7 inches in length and are so filled with large
meaty beans that they are greater in width than breadth. They are of the finest quality
entirely stringless and will bear heavily the entire season. There is no better bean on the
market than the Kentucky Wonder and my stock is selected with great care. Be sure to
try this grand bean.

LAZY WIFE—Pods six inches in length, produced in great abundance; broad, fleshy
and entirely stringless; possess a rich buttery flavor when cooked. Asa shell bean for
winter they have few equals and no superior.

CUTSHORT or Cornhill -— This is an old and very popular variety for planting
among the corn. In some sections it is used almost exclusively, many persons desiring
no other. The pods are short, round and very tender; beans nearly oblong.

KING OF THE GARDEN, LIMA—The largest, finest and best pole lima bean grown
The pods ure of enormous size and produce 5 to 7large beans to the pod. Market garden-
3rs Can secure a more ready sale and better price for this variety than any other, on ac

tount of its large size coupled with superior quality.

EARLY GOLDEN CLUSTER WAX--Begins to bear eaaly in July and continues until
frost. Poés dre 6 to 8 inches long, borne in clusters of 8to6and are ofa beautiful golden
yellow color, and the flavor is delicious. Can be used either as a string bean or shelled

Harris’ Earliest Watermelon.
The Earliest, Best and Largest Early Melon Grown,

Tested in our own fields it
proved two to three weeks
earlier than any other variety.
Every experimental station or
trial grounds that have tested
the Genuine Harris melon,
have, so far as we know, made
the same report. Our tests
have proven it so superior to
all others that we no longer
catalogue other Extra Early
varieties. This melon will
bring greater profits to the
Market Gardener, because its
extreme earliness and_ size
enables you to be FIRST in
the market and get the top
prices. The private gardener
will have the first melons of
the season on his table.

When we are convinced @
variety has more than ordina-
ry merits, WE WANT THE BEST
IT IS POSSIBLE TO PROCURE. So
with this melon, we wanted
the best and highest quality of
seed. {(@F The seed we offer
was grown for us under special
contract, by Mr. Harris of ,

Tenn, originator of the melon. In his letter to us, Mr. Harris says: ‘The melon is oval to oblong; color is
dark green with beautiful mottled grayish stripes; flesh scarlet, sweet and melting; weight 20 to 30 lbs; is
good shipper, keeps well, bears all summer and sure to ripen ahead of any other variety. It has been
tested by Experiments at Knoxville, Tenn. and also the Government Farms at Washington, and the officers
at both places pronounce it ‘THE EARLIEST OF ALL AND OF GOOD. QUALITY.’” Some ‘cheap’
seed of this variety is being offered for sale and claimed to be “‘just as good”’ as that grown by Mr. Harris.
Dont you believe it---NO IMITATION IS AS GOOD AS THE ORIGINAL, and the genuine seed grown and improved
by Mr. Harris produces melons earlier, larger and of superior quality. It pays to plant The Best. We have
it. Pkt 5c.; 0z 10c.; 4 lb 30c.; % lb 50c.; lb 90c postpaid.

are by far the earliest and finest early
pea on the market. This pea has more
than fulfilled all the claims we have made

a crop where others fail and will be the
first in the market. We have no report
ofa failure--wherever planted they have

ZIMMERMAN’S EARLY WONDER TOMATO.

Earliest Tomate in the World.

This variety is truly an Harly Wonder and stands without a rival in the early field. Produces its beau-
tiful lucious fruit long before tomatoes are even thought of. This is not to be compared with the so-
called earlies offered by many seedsmen, but is a superior tomato and THE BEST OF THE EARLIES. It
is of good size, perfectly smooth, round and of a beautiful rich red color. Its earliness, smoothness, super-
ior quality and handsome appearance makes it the grandest Toraato ever introduced. Market gardners
can reap a rich harvest by getting the early fancy prices for the first tomatoes. The demand for this
variety has been so great the past two seasons that our supply of seed was exhausted before the seasons
were one-half over. We hope those who were disappointed in not being able to try this grand tomato
last season will order early this year. _From all reports, indications are, the demand will be still greater
this year, and, while we have a very large stock on hand, we advise early orders. Send in your orders
at once. PkKt. 5c.; % oz.- 20c.; oz. 35¢.; % Ib. $1.25, postpaid.

EARLIANA—This variety originated in New Jersey, where competition to be first in the market is very great. Itis ashy

y , ZIMMERMAN’S IMPROVED TREE TOMATO,

In our Improved Tree Tomato we undoubtedly
have the very finest of the tree tomatoes and one
that is sure to become very popular. It is earlier
than the varieties generally offered ; has a stout,
stocky stem and stands upexceedingly well. It
is a very thrifty grower and heavy yielder, pro-
ducing its bright, glossy red, lucious, fruit in
great abundance. The fruit is round, has very
few seeds and ripens clear to the stem. Flesh is
firm, thick and of most excellent flavor and sel-
dom rots or cracks, making it a decided improve-
ment over the general run of tree tomatoes. The
fruitis produced in clusters and each cluster ,@&
ripers evenly. Itis a fine shipper and especially “4
valuable for market gardeners. While they at- \
tain a height of two to three feet, they begin to
bear when about sixinches high. They do bet-
ter trained to a stake, as the fruit sometimes
weightsthem down. Pinch off low side shoots
until four clusters form. We suppose the sen-
sational seedsmen would have this really grand
tomato printed on pink, red or yellow paper in
the front part of his catalogue. It would proba-
bly be given some high sounding name. He
would make a lot of blow and bluster about it
and then ask 15e to 25¢ a packet. We are not
sensational and we want you to try this tomato
because it is a good one, and we have made the
price Rieut. Pkt 5dc., 4% oz 15¢,, oz 25c,, 14 1b

tomato hard to excel. They are

very robust, in fact they closely
resemble potato vines, when first
started. The vines are very beau-
tiful ; go into your garden morn-
ings and you will find them all
sparkling and glistening in the
sun like gold, hence the name of
GOLD Dust. But their beauty
and robust nature is not their
strongest point—they are finest
of market varieties and their
beautiful, round,smooth appear-
ence and large size make them
very attractive. They have but
few seeds and the meat is firm

shape for market. All animals seem to prefer it to any other pasture

THE HOFFMAN BROOD FRAME.

Beginners and even careless bee-keepers of some experience can not
fail to get them spaced just right. There is no guessing or hap-
hazard fingering; and the consequence is, the combs are even in sur-
face, and of uniform thickness. In these days, when out-aplaries are
so much in vogue, and hives are moved from one point to another,
it is highly *mportant that the frames be of a kind that will stand
hauling from place to place, even over rough roads; and in this re-
spect the Hoffman fills the bill perfectly.

Hoffman frames, end-spaced, 10 for 30c; 100 for $2.75; 500 for $12.50.
DOVETAILED PLAIN-SECTION SUPER.

This super takes 414x4%4x1% plain or no bee-way sections.

We specially recommend this super when you prefer the Square sec-
tion 444x44%. A fence is used between each two-section holder and at
each outside. Contents securely clamped in place with the two-end
wedges and three springs on one side. :
