DWARF or BUSH 

 BEANS 



Grow Bush Beans in your garden and get 

 more meals per square foot. They are easy to 

 grow, thrive in almost any soil, and produce big 

 crops in little space. The seed should not be 

 sown until all danger from frost is past. Sow- 

 in rows to 2 feet apart, dropping the seeds 

 4 inches apart, and covering 2 inches deep. 

 Cultivate frequently but do not work around the 

 plants while they are wet, lest they "rust." 

 Pick the pods before they are fully developed and 

 the plants will produce several good pickings. 

 For a continuous supply, make successive 

 sowings every two weeks up to mid-July. Plenty 

 of pulverized sheep manure and watering in the 

 dry spells will greatly increase the yield. Apply 

 water to the soil between the rows, not to the 

 foliage. 



One quart of Beans will plant 100 feet of row 



PRICES, except as noted, pkt. 10 cts.; pt. 30 cts.; 

 qt. 60 cts.; 2 qts. SI. 10; pk, S3. 75. If wanted by parcel 

 post, add 8 cts. per pt.; 10 cts. per qt.

ONE OF MANY SATISFIED CUSTOMERS 



Early in the spring I purchased 6 quarts of your 

 Bountiful Beans. From this planting, over a period 

 of seven weeks, I have picked 60 bushels of the 

 finest green Beans imaginable. There was not a 

 sign of rust and my customers reported that they 

 were absolutely stringless. The above figures tell 

 the stor>- of how pleased I am with your seeds. —
