Full Measure 
(55 days) This 
new highly pro- 
ductive strain has many Full Measure characteristics bred 
New Stringless Green Pod 
into it. Its prolific nature, season of growth, length, 
roundness of pods and appearance, are definitely inherited 
and yet to these very desirable features has been added a 
wonderful degree of hardiness which helps New Stringless 
withstand adverse weather conditions better than its 
parent stock.

Beans are tender and should not be planted until the 
soil is well warmed. Sowing too early will often result 
in a poor stand and uneven ripening. Sow the seed 1% 
to 2 inches deep in rows not less than 18 inches apart 
and firm the soil to assist germination. Allow the plants 
to stand 4 to 10 inches apart in the row according to 
variety. 
Shallow cultivating and hoeing should be done fre- 
quently until the vines begin to blossom. Disturbing the 
roots after the blossoms are formed will cause them to 
drop resulting in a greatly reduced crop. To prevent 
blight do not cultivate deeply and avoid working them 
while the vines are wet. Beans grow best in warm, 
well-drained, sandy loam. For succession plant every 
two weeks until about August 15th.
