Tennessee Won- 

 der, 55 days. — 



Named by us in 1889, cata- 

 logued in 1901; dried seeds 

 large, flattish and oval, in- 

 curved at eye. Color gen- 

 erally gray, but marked 

 with many black irregular 

 stripes. The TJepartment 

 of Agriculture, Bulletin 100, 

 page 124, states that the 

 "gi-een pods are the largest 

 and handsomest of all cul- 

 tivated Beans, the pods 

 curved, double barreled, 

 tinged with purple and 

 wrinkled and depressed be- 

 tween each of the eight or , 

 nine seeds." Something 

 similar to the Kentucky 

 Wonder, but hiore attrac- 

 tive and more valuable; 



quite productive 2 50 1 50

Trial Grounds. — -Two hundred and sixty samples of Beans, thinned out to 150 of each for convenience in estimating any 

 percentages or impurities. All varieties classified as to time of ripening. Pea Trials to the left. 



3USh Beans.— Average Height of Vine, 15 Inches. 



These Mature for Table 30 to 50 Days from Germination, According to Variety. Three Quarts of Seed to 100 Yards of Row. 



One to One and One-half Bushels to the Acre. 



Sow when the Apple is in bloom, and repeat as frequently as necessary until within fifty days of frost. In field culture 

 sow in drills at three feet apart. In garden culture, when the cultivation is done by hand, the rows may be at 

 24 inches. The seeds should be sown in such quantity as under ordinary circumstances to warrant one Bean vine to every 

 four inches. If closer than this their production will be impaired. On strong soil they do best at a greater distance. Yield 

 about 125 to 150 bushels of green pods per acre.
