*GILL’S DELICIOUS GIANT — Every 
year this variety increases in popularity. 
In this cross between Oregon Giant and 
Kentucky Wonder, we originated a va- 
riety twice as productive as Oregon 
Giant, of better quality—and we believe 
the easiest bean of all to pick. The beans 
are preduced in clusters of 4 to 6, the 
stems of which protrude outside of foli- 
age. The pods are green, faintly striped 
with red lines which disappear when 
cooked. Ideal for the table or for can- 
ning or freezing, so do not fail to order 
this. They are very meaty, mild and 
stringless with pods often 10 inches long. 
Our sales now exceed the popular Oregon 
Giant for home gardens. Crop short. 
Pkt. 10c; 1% Ib. 40c; Ib. 70c. 
*BLUE VICTOR—A very popular bean. 
The pods are large, long and somewhat 
flat in shape. The meat is thick, of finest 
quality, and stringless. The pods are red- 
dish purple but when cooked the color 
changes to light green. One of the finest 
high quality beans. You will like this. 
Crop short. Pkt. 10c; % Ib. 40ce. 
*OREGON GIANT—Giant pods a foot 
long; light green striped carmine. This 
wonderful bean is now sold by market 
gardeners at high prices. The quality is 
good even in the largest beans. Its giant 
size does not detract from its splendid 
quality. Pods thick meated, mild and free 
from fibre but the fully developed pods 
can be strung like the Kentucky Wonder. 
Pods a foot long and with large seeds 
developed are still good to use. 
*BLUE LAKE STRINGLESS — White 
seeded like the original Blue Lake, dis- 
continued in favor of this better type. The 
pods differ from Blue Lake, being string- 
less at all stages, fully round, somewhat 
longer and of darker green color. White 
seeds, oval and small. Blue Lake beans 
are today rated as one of the finest com- 
mercial canned and frozen beans and this 
stringless type far excels the old strain. 
*KENTUCKY WONDER — A standard 
variety often called Asparagus Bean. It 
produces exceptional yields of long, 
green. pods of fine quality. We carry a 
true strain from careful selection.
