"OliD HOffiESTEflO." 



This we regard as far ahead of any other 

 green Pole Bean. In our trial grounds last 

 summer it was fit for the table on August 

 1st, which was at least ten days earlier than 

 any other green sort. It is enormously 

 productive, the pods hanging in great clus- 

 ters from top to bottom of pole. It is 

 entirely stringless, and the pods are a 

 silvery green color, resembling the popular 

 Refugee Bush Bean. The pods, though 

 large, cook tender and melting, and we can 

 recommend it as the best green Pole Beau. 

 (See cut.) Price. 10 cts. pkt., 30 cts. y pt.,

This is certain to be the leading Early 

 Wax Pole Bean, as it is fully two weeks 

 earlier than the Golden Cluster Pole Wax. 

 being fit to pick on July 24th of last year. 

 The pods are enormous, resembling the 

 Yosemite Wax in size and form : color light 

 yellow. They are absolutely stringless and 

 cook tender. The Golden Champion was 

 the only Wax Pole Bean that did not rust 

 or spot badly in our trial grounds last sum- 

 mer. Every garden should contain the 

 Golden Champion and "Old Homestead."
