warmed, at about corn planting time. It 
will always rot if the soil is cold and 
damp. In late spring plant seed about four 
inches apart in rows two feet apart. When 
the plants come up thin out to a foot apart 
in the row. The pods should be used when 
young and tender.

riety. The long, slender, deep green pods 
are produced in great abundance.

dwarf bushy growth, much better suited 
to the family garden than the tall, strag¬ 
gling sorts. The pods are short and thick 
and of best quality, being tender and fine 
flavored when young. Exceedingly pro¬ 
ductive.

long, smooth, and of velvety color.
