 brains have culminated in this, the grandest of all Flat Wax Beans. A beautiful form, handsome long 

 pods, attractive color, luscious flavor, prolific yielder, rust proof, excellent shipper — are the points that 

 make this grand Bean the perfect success that it is. It is demanded by market gardeners, truckers and 

 shippers everywhere. It is a universal favorite. PKt. 5c and 10c, Pt. 20c, Qt. 35c, Gal. $1.00,

 under all conditions. It is a yellow podded bush bean with white seed. The pods are round and plump, 

 and attain a length of five to seven inches. They are thick and fleshy, and as handsome in the basket as 

 could be desired. The pod is perfectly stringless, thus giving name to the variety. The beans are of 

 prime table quality, either green ordry. It makes a fine display on the stall, holding its fresh appearance 

 for a long time after being picked from the bush. PKt. 5c and 10c, Pt. 20c, Qt. 35c, PK. $1.50.

24. NEW CALIFORNIA RUST-PROOF DWARF WAX— One of the handsomest and most productive flat 

 podded Wax Bean ever grown. In this new variety, we have one of the very best wax sort for market 

 gardeners and private families. _ It will sell twice as well and at a higher price than other sorts. The pods 

 are longer, broader and of a brighter yellow color than many other sorts, very superior quality, tender 

 and stringless. The vines are of vigorous growth, leaves dark green, hardy, and yield enormous quanti- 

 ties of large handsome, flat, meaty pods, borne well up from the ground, and has not shown any disposi- 

 tion to rust, no matter where grown. It is from eight to ten days earlier than the Valentine. The seeds 

 should not be planted closer than four inches apart in the row. We particularly recommend this valuable 

 sort to market gardeners. PKt. 5c and 10c, Pt. 15c, Qt. 25c. 1/2 PR. 80c, PK. $1.50, Bu. $6.00.

CULTURE OF POLE BEANS AND POLE LIMA BEANS.— These are usually planted in hills and trained to 

 poles, which should be 8 to 10 feet long, and firmly set in the ground from 314 to 4 feet apart each way. Draw 

 around them a hill of earth, and plant 4 or 5 Beans to each hill, 1 inch deep, always observing to plant the eye of 

 the Bean down. The Lima Bean is very delicate, and often fails to sprout from slight causes ; they should not be 

 planted until the ground is warm. Do not allow more than three to climb a pole, but remove extra plants to hills 

 where less than three have sprouted.
