BEANS, GREEN-PODDED BUSH 



UNITED STATES FOOD ADMINISTRATION LICENSE No. O 22972. 



The green podded dwarf sorts are perhaps the most important class of garden beans and are probably more extensively used 

 for snaps than the wax podded varieties, although the latter are considered by many as the more attractive in appearance The 

 green podded sorts are as a rule the more productive, being less sensitive to unfavorable conditions of soil and climate and of 

 late years have been less susceptible to bean diseases. 



G. & T. CO.'S EXTRA EARLY RED 

 VALENTINE (Specialty). — Ten days

 earliest green Snap Short Bean. 



The habit of the vine is dwarfed 

 and very uniform. Color of pods light 

 green, round, curved, succulent, proli- 

 fic, continuing long in edible condi- 

 tion.
