Kilgore’s Golden Bountiful Wax 
A Kilgore Introduction 
KILGORE’S GOLDEN BOUNTIFUL WAX. (45 days.) A 
wonderful bright yellow bean, entirely stringless, early, and ex¬ 
ceedingly productive, with very long, thick, semi-flat pods, prac¬ 
tically straight, and fairly disease-resistant. Golden Bountiful is 
really a companion of the regular green Bountiful, and is similar 
to it in all respects except color. The beautiful, large, straight, 
golden yellow pods give it a very attractive market appearance, 
and in edible quality this variety cannot be excelled. 
MIb. 10c; 1 lb. 30c; 2 lbs. 50c. 
KILGORE’S NEW IMPROVED KIDNEY WAX. (45 days.) 
This variety is one of the finest and heaviest yielding wax-podded 
beans. The plants are large, erect, early, and very productive. 
The pods are long, oval or semi-round, (not flat), light yellow in 
color, brittle, stringless, fleshy, and of excellent quality. This 
new variety is destined to be a leader as it becomes better known. 
Mlb. 10c; 1 lb. 30c; 2 lbs. 50c. 
SURE CROP WAX. (45 days.) The large, flat, straight, 
bright yellow pods are produced very early in great abundance, 
and the plants are strong and vigorous. Productiveness and qual¬ 
ity are two of the greatest points of this stringless variety. Sure 
Crop Wax is one of the biggest yielding of all wax beans, and has 
the advantage of being very early. In hardiness it probably ex¬ 
cels all other wax beans. 
Mlb. 10c; 1 lb. 30c; 2 lbs. 50c. 
HODSON WAX. (55 days.) A vigorous, very hardy, and ex¬ 
tremely productive variety, rather late in maturing. Noted for its 
attractive, very large, long, flat, slightly curved, light yellow 
pods, which when picked at the proper stage are of good quality. 
Holds up exceptionally well as a shipping sort to distant markets.

GREEN PODDED POLE BEANS 
Plant 1 peck per acre. 
Culture of Green Podded Pole Beans. Pole beans are latex 
in maturing than bush string beans, but bear for a longer season 
and yield more than bush beans. They are somewhat more tender 
than bush beans. For best results pole beans should be sup¬ 
ported by wires or by good strong poles to keep them off the 
ground. Poles should be eight to nine feet long and set firmly in 
the ground, in rows four feet apart, and three feet apart in the 
row. Plant six to eight seeds around each pole, thinning out to 
four plants later. Cover seed one and one-half to two inches.

U. S. NO. 3. (New Rust Resistant.) (56 days.) A recent 
release of the U. S. D. A. Limited quantity of seed available. 
This new variety developed by the United States Department 
of Agriculture, has been developed for rust resistance, to which 
disease Kentucky Wonder and other green podded pole beans 
are very susceptible. Repeated tests for rust resistance and selec¬ 
tion for quality and other desirable characteristics were made by 
the U. S. D. A. for several years before releasing this and U. S. 
No. 4 varieties. Makes an early maturing (4 to 5 days earlier 
than Kentucky Wonder), long (7 to 8 inches) round podded 
bean, entirely stringless at all stages, and of exceptionally good 
quality and very attractive appearance. The pods resemble 
brown seeded Kentucky Wonder in general appearance, although 
they are slightly longer and plumper, on the average under 
Florida conditions. The seed is white.

U. S. NO. 4. (New Rust Resistant.) (63 days.) A recent 
release of the U. S. D. A. Limited quantity of seed available. 
This new variety like U. S. No. 3, is entirely rust resistant, and 
was just recently released by the United States Department of 
Agriculture. It differs from U. S. No. 3 in producing semi-round 
or flattish pods instead of fully round pods. The pods are very 
straight, long, ranging from 8 to 9 inches, and exceedingly attrac¬ 
tive in appearance. The pods are stringless in the marketable 
stage but get stringy when older. This variety is exceedingly 
productive. Seeds are white in color, and indistinguishable from 
those of U. S. No. 3.

KENTUCKY WONDER. (Old Homestead.) (60 days.) A 
most popular, green podded, climbing or pole bean, early and 
very productive over a long season. Pods are very long, curved, 
nearly round, very slender, with undulating surface, meaty, very 
brittle, slightly stringy, and of good quality if harvested young. 
Mlb. 10c; 1 lb. 30c; 2 lbs. 50c. 
TENNESSEE WONDER. (63 days.) The plant is of me¬ 
dium growth, of good climbing habit, fairly productive. The 
pods are of light green color, round, constricted, and are consid¬ 
ered to be the largest, straightest and handsomest of all culti¬ 
vated beans, making this an ideal pole bean to produce for the 
market, as well as for home use. 
*4 lb. 10c; 1 lb. 30c; 2 lbs. 50c. 
McCASLAN. (60 days.) A prolific, white seeded pole bean, of 
Georgia origin, one of the most popular in the south, as a dry 
shell bean as well as for snap beans. The flat pods are deep 
green, large, very thick and meaty, stringless, and of excellent 
quality.
