KILGORE'S GOLDEN BOUNTIFUL WAX. (43 days.) A 
wonderful bright yellow bean, entirely stringless, early, and 
exceedingly productive, with very long, thick, semi-flat pods, 
practically straight, and fairly disease-resistant. Golden 
Bountiful is really a companion of the regular green Bounti¬ 
ful, 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 va¬ 
riety cannot be excelled. 
Va lb. 10c; 1 lb. 30c; 2 lbs. 50c. 
PENCIL POD BLACK WAX. (48 days.) An exceedingly de¬ 
sirable variety for home use, local market and shipping. The 
plant is large, robust, stocky, vigorous and very productive. 
Pods are round, slightly curved, fleshy, golden yellow, tender, 
entirely stringless, without fibre, extremely brittle, succulent 
and of highest quality. 
Va lb. 10c; 1 lb. 30c; 2 lbs. 50c. 
KILGORE'S NEW IMPROVED KIDNEY WAX. (50 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. 
Va lb. 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 abun¬ 
dance, and the plants are strong and vigorous. Productive¬ 
ness and quality are two of the greatest points of this string¬ 
less 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 excels all other wax beans. 
Va lb. 10c; 1 lb. 30c; 2 lbs. 50c. 
HODSON WAX. (56 days.) A vigorous, very hardy, and 
extremely 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.

New Rust Resistant Green Podded Pole Bean 
GREEN PODDED POLE 
BEANS 
Plant 1 peck per acre. 
Culture of Green Podded Pole Beans. Pole beans are 
later in maturing than bush beans, but bear for a longer 
season, and are extremely productive, yielding more than 
bush beans, and also produce bigger pods. They are some¬ 
what more tender than bush beans if harvested young. For 
best results, pole beans should be supported by wires or by 
good strong poles to keep them off the ground. Poles should 
be 8 to 9 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. When plants are well estab¬ 
lished, thin to two or three plants to a pole. In order to keep 
pole beans bearing over a long season, it is important to keep 
them closely picked. Use Nitragin. (See page 55.)

KENTUCKY WONDER. (Old Homestead.) (65 days.) This is 
a popular, green podded, climbing or pole bean, early, and 
very productive over a long season. Pods are very long, 
ranging from eight to ten inches, curved, nearly round, with 
undulating surface. Though thick, they appear slender on 
account of their great length. Pods are meaty, very brittle, 
and of good quality if harvested young. The pods hang in 
large clusters from the top to the bottom of the vine, and can 
be gathered by the handful. Our strain has been selected for 
resistance to both rust and powdery mildew. 
Va lb. 10c; 1 lb. 30c; 2 lbs. 50c. 
TENNESSEE WONDER. (70 days.) The plant is of medium 
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 cul¬ 
tivated beans, making this an ideal pole bean to produce for 
the market, as well as for home use. 
lb. 10c; 1 lb. 30c; 2 lbs. 50c. 
McCASLAN. (65 days.) A prolific, white-seeded pole bean, 
of Georgia origin. This is one of the most popular pole beans 
grown in Florida. The seeds being white in color are used as 
a green shell bean, although this variety is used more exten¬ 
sively as snap beans when young. The pods are dark green, 
eight inches long, large, flat, slightly curved, very thick and 
meaty, stringless, brittle and fine grained, and of excellent 
quality if harvested young. 
Va lb. 10c; 1 lb. 30c; 2 lbs. 50c. 
KILGORE'S GENUINE CORNFIELD. (70 days.) This is » 
large podded pole bean. A most desirable variety to plant in 
the corn during the Spring months, thus getting two crops 
off the same piece of land at the same time. A very vigorous 
grower, heavy producer, it forms large, long, smooth, flat¬ 
tened, nearly straight pods of excellent quality. 
Va lb. 10c; 1 lb. 30c; 2 lbs. 50e. 
U. S. No. 3 (New Rust Resistant.) (60 days.) Repeated 
tests for rust resistance and selection for quality and other 
desirable characteristics were made by the U. S. D. A. for 
several years before releasing this variety. 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 Won¬ 
der in general appearance, although they are plumper on the 
average under Florida conditions. The seed is white. 
Va lb. 10c; 1 lb. 35c; 2 lbs. 60c. 
U. S. No. 4 (New Rust Resistant). (63 days.) This new va¬ 
riety, like U. S. No. 3, is entirely rust resistant and was just 
recently released by the United States Department of Agri¬ 
culture. 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 exceed¬ 
ingly attractive 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, similar to 
U. S. No. 3. 
Va lb. 10c; 1 lb. 35c; 2 lbs. 60c.
