B£ANS 



Dwarf or Bush* Green Pod (S3uf(f) sgofineu)

Culture. — The varieties of this class are tender and will not bear much cold. Plant about the first of 

 if the ground is warm and the season favorable, and at intervals throughout the season for a succession, fini 

 about the loth of August. The best mode of culture is in rows, 2 feet apart, and the Beans 2 inches ai)ai i , 

 inches deep in rows. Keep well hoed and draw the earth up to the stem, but only when dry: working thcni 

 wet with rain or dew will cause them to rust and injure the crop.

tively stringless, 



ripens earlier than Valentine, and remains tender and 

 crisp a long time after maturity. Pods are pale 

 green, long and straight, perfectly round and meaty.

Valentine Improved Early Red 



For snaps there is nothing superior to this variety 

 among the green-podded sorts, and many prefer it 

 to the wax varieties. Vine erect, with course, dark 

 green leaves. Pods medium length, curved, cylin- 

 drical, very fleshy, crisp and tender. We know of 

 no stock of Red Valentines which can be compared 

 with that we offer in uniformly high quaUty of pod.

 will stand considerable cold wet weather, while 

 other varieties at the sane time will rot in the 

 ground. The main feature of this Bean is its 

 earliness. The pods are usually ready to pick at 

 least 5 days ahead of Red Valentine, and are a 

 beautiful green color, extra long, almost straight,
