Our customers have frequently asked for a round podded \Yax Bean, possessing the excellent market and shipping qualities of the popular Wardwell's Kidney Wax, and this is the first bean we have ever discovered that will fill the bill. The plant grows tall, strong and sturdy, with long, round, handsome, stringless pods of large size, very solid and full of meat, crisp, brittle and free from rust; wonderfully early and productive.

Sept. 15, 1900. writes: Your new Round Pod Kidney Wax Beans are the finest from the time they are large enough to pick until full grown. I get a much higher price for them than for any other bean."
