CURRIE BROTHERS COMPAJVY, MILWAUKEE, WIS. 



CTJBBIE^S BUST-PBOOF WAX BBAN. 



BEANS. 



DWARF OR BUSH. 



Begin sowing Dwarf or Bush varieties the first week in May, if the 

 ground is in fit condition. For successive crops sowings may be made 

 every two or three weeks until the first of July. Sow thinly in drills 2 or 

 3 inches deep and from 18 inches to 2 feet apart. If the soil is rather poor, 

 the former depth will suffice, if rich, the latter. One quart to 100 feet of 

 drill, 2 bushels to the acre in drills. 



Never before have weather and other conditions in the Bean growing 

 districts been so extremely unfavorable as during the past season, and 

 never has there been so short a supply of seed as this year. Ortler early. 

 We will fill orders as they are received as long as the stocks last, but on 

 no order can we furnish more than the quantities priced.
