Outstanding for Their Rich Flavor Pole 
54 White Seeded Kentucky 
Wonder % 
Resistant to severe forms of bean rust (62 days) 
This is the first pole bean to give serious com- 
petition to the old standard strain of Kentucky 
Wonder. It’s early, Kentucky Wonder type, with 
distinct advantages over other pole beans. It is 
highly resistant to at least one form of the rust 
disease, entirely stringless when young, and even 
after the beans have grown to full size in the pod it 
has only slight strings. The vine is vigorous and a 
good climber; the seed is white. Pods are 7 to 714 
in. long, thick, smoother than Kentucky Wonder 
and less twisted, dark green, with that unexcelled 
pole bean quality.

43 Kentucky Wonder® 
The most popular pole bean (65 days) 
Everyone knows and respects this grand old vari- 
ety. It was introduced in 1877, and continues to be 
the most popular pole bean in America and in many 
other parts of the world. The vines are vigorous and 
productive, and bear their pods in clusters. These 
pods are 7 to 9 in. long, nearly round, twisted, and 
characteristically wrinkled. When they are young, 
they are of greatest delicacy and tenderness and are 
free of strings. As the pods age some strings appear, 
but the wonderful Kentucky Wonder flavor never 
changes, and both snap beans and shell beans may be 
used until far advanced toward maturity. To pro- 
long the bearing period keep the vines picked free 
of pods as fast as they become ready for use. The 
seed is a light buff-brown color.

plants are vigorous and come into production quickly. The pods

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.

46 Maule’s Noxall 
(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 more 
popular than ever. The pods are 7 in. long, round, tender, and 
bright green. It is a strong climber anda sure cropper, often 
producing a heavy yield when other varieties fail. Good for 
either snap or shell beans. Putty-colored seeds flecked with 
brown.

Planting Guide 
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 6 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 lb. for 100 poles. When planting 
along a fence use 1 lb. to 250 ft. of row. Keep vines closely 
picked throughout the season to prolong bearing.
