Johnson & Stokes' Specialties for Market Gardeners. 



NEW GOLDEN ANDALUSIA. 



The Best Pole Wax Bean. 



This new beau, named and introduced by us 

 two years since, has created a decided sensation 

 among bean growers. Nothing we have ever 

 introduced has brought us so man}' unsolicited 

 letters of the strongest praise from all parts of the 

 United States. Hundreds pronounce it emphatic- 

 all}' the viost valuable pole variety ever offered. 

 It originated at Andalusia, Bucks County, Pa., with 

 a market grower. Our illustration, made from 

 nature, gives some idea of their wonderful pro- 

 ductiveness, it being nothing unusual to pick one- 

 half bushel to three pecks from a single vine at one 

 picking. The pods are five to six inches long, 

 broad, thick, very fleshy and entirely strittgless, 

 far surpassing all other varieties in this respect, 

 and retaining these important qualities until almost 

 ripe. The pods when fully grown are from five to 

 six inches long, exceedingly rich, buttery and fine 

 flavored when cooked. The vines cling well to 

 the poles, a very important feature, as, on account 

 of their enormous productiveness, the weight of a 

 vine filled with such a mass of large pods is very 

 great. They commence bearing in great abund- 

 ance when the vines are quite young, and continue 

 to bear profusely the entire season. The beans 

 when dry are round as a bullet, pure white in 

 color, and also make a fine shell or winter bean. 

 In great productiveness, fine quality and ever-bear- 

 ing character they stand unequalled by any other 

 pole bean in the world. Pint, 40c. ; qt.,70C. ; peck, 

 $4.00; bush., I15.00. 



The Best GreenfPodded Pole Bean. 



This new Pole Bean, introduced by us a few 

 years since, has become a great favorite. The pods 

 grow from four to six inches long, entirely string- 

 less, and of a rich buttery flavor when cooked. 

 The pods remain green, and retain their tender, 

 rich, stringless flavor until nearly ripe. The beans 

 are white, and are unsurpassed as shell beans for 

 winter use. They are pronounced by all who have 

 grown them the best green podded snap-short Pole 

 Bean in cultivation. Pint, 25c. ; qt., 40c. ; peck, 

 1^3.00; bush., $12.00.

David A. Raemey, Martinsville, Ind., Sept. 9, 1889, 

 Avrites : " I have had many garden seeds from different firms, 

 but yours excel all others in purity and greatness of growth. 

 The" Andalusia Bean is sweeping the market here. 1 sell 

 them readilv at 40 cents per peek. I had hills from which I 

 picked off one single shoot from a half bushel to three pecks." 



Fred. Geofp, Joanna, Pa., writes: "I cannot refrain 

 from writing to vou about the Golden Andalusia Beans. They 

 are the finest I have ever grown and have no equal. They 

 are more than you claim. I have never failed to grow fine 

 crops from all your seeds. You shall have all my orders in 

 future." 



Charles T. Cook, Montville, Conn., writes : " I cannot 

 speak too highly in favor of the Golden Andalusia Bean ; 

 they go ahead of anvthing I ever saw. The Crown Jewel are 

 the"earliest of potatoes : in sixty days from planting, I dug an 

 enormous crop."
