(65 days) In 1902 we presented this bean to the public under 
the Noxall name. But for 60 years previous to that date the 
variety had been privately grown by a Pennsylvania family. 
The century of enjoyment this bean has brought the gardeners 
who grew it is only the beginning, for today the variety is as 
popular as ever. The pods are 7 in. long, round, tender, and 
bright green. It is a strong climber and a sure cropper, often 
producing a heavy yield when other varieties fail. Good for 
either snap or shell beans. Putty-colored seeds flecked brown.

4. He Gi ° , 
Do not ‘plant pole beans until all danger of frost is past and 
the soil is warm and moderately dry. If poles are used, set them 
4 ft. apart each way and place 4 to 8 beans 1 in. deep around 
each pole. When plants are well started, thin to 3 or 4 plants to 
a pole, and pinch off ends when plants overrun top of poles. 
A packet plants 20 poles, 1 Ib. for 100 poles. When planting 
along a fence use 1 Ib. to 250 ft. of row. Keep vines closely 
picked throughout the season to prolong bearing. 
True Kentucky Wonder type with a light yellow pod. The 
plants are vigorous and come into production quickly. The pods 
are round, 7 to 8 in. long, somewhat smoother and not so twisted 
as the green-pod Kentucky Wonder. Fine flavor and good qual- 
ity, with some strings developing as the pods mature. The seeds 
are chocolate brown.
