Golden Cluster. 
lasting Pole Bean. A magnificent variety 
that bears continously the entire season, 
it grows rapidly, bearing very early clus- 
ters of three to six pods of rich golden 
color. Pods average about 8 in. in length, 
exceedingly tender and entirely strlngless, 
rel.uning their iilumpness and tenderness 
long alter they have att.-iincd a large size, 
and continue to bear, if the pods are 
picked, until frost. It Is a very common 
thing to pick 1-2 to 3-4 of a bushel from a 
single vine at one picking, and its enor- 
mous yield recommends it to every one. 
Few, if any, of the varieties of late intro- 
duction are so popular as the Golden 
Cluster, and certainly none will give bet- 
ter satisfaction than this splendid bean.

its class. It is a heavy yielder on all kinds of soil, and is of 
excellent flavor. The pods are of enormous size, measure 
ing eight or nine Inches in length, and containing as many 
as eight or nine beans. Next to May s Champion Lima

ietj' is quite distinct in character of pod 
and bean from the other named sorts. 
I'lants are of strong growth and very 
productive, but pods do not mature as 
early as the large flat sorts. The pods 
arc produced in large clusters and aver- 
age three to four incher in length; they 
are quite thick through containing three 
to four thick beans; they are of excellent 
flavor, rather more "niicaly*' than the 
earlier beans. Being easily shelled and 
very productive, they are esteemed both 
for market and h()me use late in the sea-

Laz" Wife's Pole. VlTc^ ^il 
Iiopular jiolebean grown. Pods are won- 
derfully broad, thick .and above all 
entirely stringless. They surpass any 
other variety in the way vines cling to 
the poles, and every bean grower will at 
once acknowledge this a most important 
qualification. Pods are rather flattish, 
oval shape, :ind when fully grown are 
from four to six inches long", exceedingly 
rieh, buttery and fine fl.-ivored when 
cooked. They are hardy, easily grown 
and most productive. For an early and 
late snap sort, also as a dry shell or win- 
ter bean it is unsurpassed, and such is the 
peculiar taste and pleasing flavor of this 
bean that we have known persons who 
would not cat other varieties of string 
beans after tasting Lazy Wife. Pkt. loc,
