“We live in Kyusha, southern 
Japan, and our weather is suitable 
for planting now. 
“We have always had good luck 
with Meyer’s seeds and with four 
acres of ground, quantities of humus 
and light soil, and two Japanese 
gardeners, I think we shall do well.”

Cherokee Wax Beans SEE PAGE 25 
(58 days.) A wax strain of Asgrow Black Valentine. 
It is in the same season and has an oval pod and the same 
ruggedness and productiveness. One of the outstanding 
characteristics of the variety ts the ease with which the 
Beans can be picked, because it seems that the pods all 
hang on the outside of the plant. Plant large and erect; 
pods golden wax, oval, nearly straight, stringless at all 
stages, tender and of good quality. The most prolific wax- 
podded variety, equal in yield to the best green-podded 
types.
