R. & J. FARQUHAR & CO.'S SEED CATALOGUE. 



POLE BEANS. 



Golden Carmine. In ihis new strain we have a 

 wonderfully robust grower, a week to ten days 

 earlier than Worcester Horticultural Pole. In 

 comparison the pods are equally as large, string- 

 less, bright golden color when very young. 

 As the pods approach full size they are mottled 

 and streaked with an unusually bright carmine 

 color on the bright golden, which gives the pods 

 (when ready for market) a strikingly beautiful 

 and attractive appearance. This, together with 

 its productiveness, will make it the most desirable 

 strain of this well-known and popular bean. Pint, 

 .30; quart, .50; peck, $2.75. 



Worcester Pole. Very early and remarkably 

 productive. The long, beautifully-colored pods, 

 striped and splashed brilliant crimson, hang in rich

 quart, .50; peck, $2.75. -

Gentlemen : I -wish to advise you of mv success with your Ferti- 

 lizers last season. I consider your Vegetable and Potato Ferti- 

 lizer the best I ever used. I used it for potatoes on ne-.v land 

 ■without manure or other dressini;, and raised the finest potatoes I 

 have ever seen, clean, smooth, of even size, and excellent quality. 

 I had 212 bushels from seven eighths of an acre of ground. 

 Yours very truly,
