POLE BEANS — Continued 
STRINGLESS BLUE LAKE, BLACK SEEDED 
— The pods are stringless; about 7 inches long, 
Straight and round. Hardy and vigorous and a 
heavy producer of the finest quality beans. For 
home gardens it is ideal and produces heavier 
crops than the White Seeded Stringless. Ideal for 
market gardeners. 
*WHITE SEEDED KENTUCKY WONDER 
— Many prefer this to Kentucky Wonder. Earlier, 
more productive, stringless and good quality. 
*KENTUCKY WONDER WAX — Vigorous 
and productive. Pods waxy yellow, large, string- 
less and of fine quality. Best yellow pole bean. 
YARD LONG — Vigorous vine 6’ tall with 
rank, dark green foliage. Very slender pods, 18” 
to 26” long. Small seed of reddish brown. The 
pods are often sold in bunches. Pkt. 15¢;

CHRISTMAS LIMA — This unusual pole lima 
excels for quality and production. When cooked 
in either dry or green shell stage the seed turns 
to a pink-brown color and the stripe disappears. 
In the shell stage they are sweet as though they 
had been sugared lightly. In either dry or sheil 
stage the skin is thin and tender. We have tested 
many lima varieties but none equals this for high 
quality and production so we believe it is the 
best for our Pacific Northwest states where cool 
Summer nights usually prevail during the growing 
season. The seeds are very flat but quite large 
and every seed is white, striped with deep crimson. 
Vigorous vines 7 to 9 feet tall, foliage rather 
thin and of medium size. Pods 5 to 514 inches 
long and about one inch wide, usually carrying 
3 or 4 beans to the pod. We urge our home 
garden customers to try this grand lima. 
KING OF THE GARDEN — A large, flat 
lima of great vigor and heavy production. Seed 
white in dry stage but creamy green in shell 
condition. It also produces well in the Pacific 
Northwest. A splendid sort for canning or freez- 
ing. Vines 7 to 9 feet, pods 5% to 6 inches long 
with 4 to 5 thick, flat seeds. 
OREGON LIMA (White Seeded Runner) — A 
large pole lima, extra early and suited for Pacific 
Northwest culture. It ripens in about 75 days 
from planting. Excellent used as a shell bean or 
stored dry for winter use. Extra large, plump, 
pure white seed. In the milder climates it often 
lives through the winter and produces a crop 
the second year. 
Soy Beans, Edible 
OTTAWA — A new, extra early variety that 
will mature even in sections with short seasons. 
Fine quality. This new variety insures full ripen-

sider this the best for the Pacific Northwest states

an important factor. Postpaid. Pkt. 15c;
