Condon's Pedigreed Strains of Northern 
Grown Seed Beans 
DIRECT FROM THE GROWER TO THE SOWER 
without fear of contradiction, we feel safe In saying we are the largest personal growers of Garden Seed 
Beans selling direct to the planter. The photograph below was taken this summer on one of our seed farms at 
Bockford, Illinois, and on this field alone we have eighty acres of Beans. That's a few isn't it? But it's only a 
very small portion of our actual plantings which totals very close to a thousand acres. With extensive plantings 
like these we are in position to select and breed our seed to a far higher degree of perfection than most people, 
and by this careful selection, roguing and hand-picking, we have Beans that are really worth a dollar a bushel 
more than are less carefully selected seed, but you don't pay even as much as most dealers ask, if you buy direct 
from us, for being actual growers we save you the jobber's profit. Crop in general this year didn't average better 
than ten bushels per acre on account of the long continued drought, therefore, get your orders in as early aa 
possible, please, and in fairness to our thousands of customers who buy their general supply from us annually, 
cannot accept orders for Seed Beans alone. Only sold in connection with general orders of like value.
