CONDON'S ''Sure Crop" STRINGLESS BEAN 
The Best Dwarf Round Green Podded Snap Bean 
Tliis superior variety is a distinct improvement in green bush beans, and has become exceedingly pop- 
ular wherever known. The plant is remarkably handsome and of thrifty growth, being practically rust ajid 
mildew proof. It is verj' hardy, extremely early, very prolific and bears continuously 
for several weeks; it is the first to give pods fit to pick in the spring, and the last to 
yield edible pods in the fall. But the chief merit of this grand Bush Bean is in the rich 
green pods, which are of immense size, thick, round, extra long, very uniform in shape, 
solid, meaty, and of high quality, melting, tender and having a delicious flavor exclu- 
sively their own; moreover, the pods are absolutely stringless and entirely free from 
any tough membranous lining, even when matured. 
In addition to the many merits of "Sure Crop" as a "snap" bean, it is most excellent 
shelled after it is ripe for winter use. In order that all our customers may try at least 
a small quantity of this New Stringless Bean we offer at the following low prices; 
Packet, 10 cents; }4 pint, 20 cents; pint, 35 cents; quart, 60 cents, postpaid.
