Burgess’ Michigan Grown Beans 
Every seedsman now concedes that Michigan Grown Beans are the best that can be produced. Our 
stock of seed is selected with extreme care, and the growing crops carefully rogued several times each 
season. The following list comprises the best of their respective types. 
Dwarf Green-Podded Beans 
ONE POUND OF SEED FOR 75 FEET OF ROW 
-“TENDERGREEN”- 
The Tendergreen is a delicious, fine flavored, second-early snap 
bean. Many who have given it a trial consider it the finest quality 
of all bush beans. The pods are light green, of handsome appear¬ 
ance, grow 7 inches in length, and are round, extremely meaty and 
tender. Even when fully grown they are absolutely stringless. The 
plants make a strong and vigorous growth and are remarkable for 
their large yields of long straight pods. It somewhat resembles Full 
Measure but is a decided improvement upon that popular variety. 
We recommend it for the home garden, market growers and roadside 
stands. It is not often that so many good qualities are combined in 
one variety. Pkt.., 10c; y> lb., 22c; lb., 40c; 2 lbs., 70c; 5 lbs.,
