HOME VEGETABLE GARDENING 



POLE BEANS WAX-PODDED KINDS 



rpOREMOST among these ranks Golden Cluster Wax, 

 * deservedly popular for every purpose in the home 

 garden. It is a dependable cropper on all kinds of soil. 

 Where season and soil are favorable for strong development 

 it bears pods in clusters of two and four large pods, six 

 to eight inches long by three-quarter inches wide. They 

 are perfectly stringless while young, flat and vary in 

 color from creamy white to lemon yellow. Ready fr* 

 use in seventy-five days. Dry beans are pure white. 



Kentucky Wonder Wax, as illustrated, is the yellow- 

 podded companion to Old Homestead or green-podded 

 Kentucky Wonder. It has all the admirable qualities 

 of that popular favorite, and matures a week earlier. 



Golden Carmine Horticultural is a popular old variety 

 in New England and other sections where the seasons are 

 short and cool. The pods are hardly fit for use, being 

 tough and stringy; but the handsomely marked dry beans 

 are splendid for winter use.
