Bohnen; It., Faginoli Mangiassetto 
Y4 |b. will plant 75 poles or hills. 
Poles 8 to 10 ft. high should be set solidly in ground 
4 ft. apart each way. Form hills around each pole and in 
each plant 8 to 10 Beans, 2 inches deep, not earlier than 
the middle of May, thinning out to 6 plants. Protect 
against Bean beetle. 
Italian Pole. Stringless, pole snap bean, large fleshy 
pods of distinct flavor. Considered by many to be the 
finest of all snap beans. Lb. $1.25, 5 lbs. $5.75. 
*Kentucky Wonder or Old Homestead. The 
most popular green-podded climbing or corn-hill Bean; 
early and productive. Pods 8 to 9 in. long, very slen- 
der, decidedly curved, slightly stringy, tender and good 
quality. Sometimes called Yard Long Bean. Lb. 90c, 
5 Ibs. $4.25. 
Searlet Runner. On the order of the Limas; grown 
mostly in America for its ornamental bright scarlet 
flowers. Seed reddish brown, mottled black. Lb. 95c, 
5 lbs. $4.50. 
Dwarf or Bush Lima Beans 
14 |b. will sow 100-ft. row. 
Culture as for string Beans, except that Lima Beans 
should be planted about 6 inches apart with eye of Bean 
down. Should also be protected against Bean beetle. 
*Baby Fordhook. Small plant with vigorous branch 
and leaf growth. Foliage darker than Fordhook and 
more productive. Excellent small thick beans for can- 
ning and freezing. Cross of Fordhook and Henderson. 
Lb. 95c, 5 Ibs. $4.50. 
*Evergreen. This bush Lima’s great merit is in the 
color, shape and flavor, about the size of Henderson’s, 
but plump; green in both skin and Bean thus making 
an attractive appearance; gratifying to the taste and 
has the nutty Fordhook flavor. The good qualities are 
not lost, whether the Beans are used fresh, from the 
deep freezer or canned. Plants, pods and maturity are 
very much the same as standard small seeded bush 
Lima varieties. Lb. $1.25, 5 lbs. $5.75.
