. Philips' buyers guide for 1897 : garden, farm and flower seeds. Nursery stock Pennsylvania Mercersburg Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Grasses Seeds Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs. ()f the many varieties of Beans the following lists comprises the very best, of all of which our stock is extra choice, grown from seed stock carefully selected and improved by continued inteligent selec- tion, all the varieties of this class are tender, and will not bear cold. Plant about the middle of April, if the ground is warm and season favorable, plant at intervals throughout the season for succession, finishing about the 15th of August. The best mode of culture is in rows 2 feet apart, the beans 3 inches apart and 2 inches deep in the rows. Keep well hoed up to their stems, but only when dry, work- ing them when wet with rain or dew will cause them to rust and in- jure the pod. j&^Add 15 cts., per qt., extra if to be sent by mail. New Stringless Green Pod. The only stringless green-pod bush bean in cultivation. Consequently it surpasses all others in crisp, tender flavor. The illus- tration herewith shows the width and thickness of the beautiful, straight, green pods taken from nature; all are absolutely stringless and of the beautiful fleshy appear- ance shown. When we add that the pods are ready to market two weeks earlier than the best stock of Im- proved Extra Early Red Valentines, in fact, even earlier Yellow Six Weeks, which, as all know, is valuable only for its extra earliness. being of inferior quality, we are sure that New Stringless Green Pod will supply a long-felt want, It must prove of immense value not only to the market gardener who wants to make more money, but also to the qt. nateur who seeks a rare quality early for the home table.
