North. The vines are not very long, and 
can be grown on brush instead of on a 
pole. The pods are borne in clusters and 
average 6 to 8 inches in length; are very 
uniformly straight, and of dark green 
color. They are absolutely stringless, 
very meaty, tender, and sweet in flavor. 
The dry beans are small and white, be¬

become too ripe. Equally desirable for 
the market and for the home gardens.

The Earliest Grandest Yellow-Podded 
Pole Bean in Cultivation. Well Re¬ 
pays the Trouble of Procuring Poles 
We know of no bean that will please 
you more than this remarkable new sort. 
We have grown pods from this variety 
10 inches long, and a most beautiful 
golden waxy color, and where they have 
been exposed in market have readily 
brought a better price than any other 
sort. Pods are produced in clusters of 
from 4 to 6 the entire length of the vine. 
While this variety is nearly as early as 
any of the Dwarf Beans, it will continue 
to produce pods until cut down by frost.
