Pole or Corn Beans 
A pkt. will plant about 20 ft. of row or 15 hills; 1 1b. 100 hills; 20 to 30 lbs. per acre. 
Plant after danger of frost, in a warm, fertile and well-drained, mellow 
soil. Drop 3 to 5 seeds, 114 inches deep per hill, 2 to 3 feet apart in the 
row and 3 to 4 feet between rows. Use 8- to 9-foot poles set 2 to 3 inches 
in the ground. Where seed is dropped 4 inches apart in 4- to 5-foot rows, 
trellis may be built with well-braced end poles. Shallow planting in a well- 
drained soil is advised to overcome soil-borne organisms, frequently re- 
sponsible for a poor stand. Pole Beans may be planted with Corn. 
86 Logan Giant Pkt., 10c; % 1b., 30c; 1b., 50c; 2 lbs., 95c; 5 lbs., $2.25 
(65 days.) There is no Bean of its class that we have grown that is as 
tender and as fine quality. Many of our customers consider it the best 
pole Bean that they have ever grown. The pods, produced in clusters 
and in great abundance, are light green, 6-7 inches long, broad, round, 
slightly curved. 10 days to 2 weeks earlier than Kentucky Wonder.

(Old Homestead.) (65 days.) Continues to bear throughout the sea- 
son, if the pods are picked as they mature. Pods are 9 to 10 inches long, 
very deeply creased, meaty, stringless when young and of finest quality. 
85 Lazy Wife Pkt., 10c; Y 1b., 25c; Ib., 45c; 2 lbs., 85c; 5 lbs., $2.00

Horticultural or Speckled Cranberry; has larger Beans and pods, ma- 
tures earlier. The pods are round, thick, 7 inches long, becoming

Pole Lima Beans 
102 Giant Podded Lima 
Pkt., 10ce; 2 1b:, 30c; lb., 50c; 2 lbs., 95c3 5-1bs:, $2.25 
(85 days.) The most productive pole Lima Bean. Grows green, stavs 
green. We find this Bean is far more productive than any other pole 
Lima. The large pods hang in clusters of from 5 to 8, which makes them 
easv to gather, each having 5 to 6 Beans in a pod. 
103 King of the Garden 
Pkt., 10c; 14 1b., 30c; lb., 50c; 2 lbs., 95c: 5 lbs., $2.25 
(80 days.) This variety produces large, flat pods of good quality, con- 
taining 5 or 6 large Beans. Very prolific. 
44 Supergreen—New Stringless Bean 
All-America Award Winner 
55 days. The outstanding round-podded Bean. Pods are long, slim, 
round, stringless, and of best quality. This is a great improvement in green 
bush Beans. The handsome, straight, green pods grow long, slim, round, 
stringless. It has all the best qualities of the Tendergreen—better yielder, 
excellent flavor, tenderness, and grows longer and more slender than that 
variety. The plants are resistant to disease, are exceptionally robust and 
healthy, producing a great abundance of long, slim, handsome pods. We 
are proud to offer this new wonderful Bean, which we believe will replace 
many round pod Beans. ;

All-America Winner 
52 days. A quality Bean for the quality market. Productive—early—

golden yellow. We believe the best wax-podded Bean yet introduced.
