We have named this supreme product of the horti- 

 cultural art "Golden Age," because we believe its 

 advent is an achievement in the science of plant breed- 

 ing. Besides being absolutely stringless, it is remark- 

 able for its rust-resisting and disease-resisting qual- 

 ities. The plants are vigorous in growth, and bear 

 heavy crops of transparent, tender, golden, waxy 

 pods, delightful to the eye, and ready to pick in 50 

 days from the planting of the seed.
