A Word about Our Seed 
Beans. Our pure-bred high- 
yielding Seed Beans, free of 
disease, have hidden away in 
the "blood” of the seed, where, 
of course, they cannot be seen, 
those bred-in elements of power 
to produce two to three times 
more bushels of Beans to 
every acre than is possible from 
ordinary Seed Beans. That is 
why our Seed Beans are pre¬ 
ferred by successful growers 
everywhere. 
POSTPAID PRICES. We pay the 
postage. BT FREIGHT. You pay 
freight or express when your order 
arrives. 
Schell’s Strain Green Bountiful Beans. Mr. Jack Thornborrow, New Jersey, is 
delighted with his crop which, the first picking, gave him 100 bushels off the 
first half acre picked. 
SCHELL’S GREEN BOUNTIFUL is now acknowledged to be the earliest and best in 
quality and heaviest in yield of all the flat stringless podded varieties. Because the 
pods remain in good condition for a long time, it is the leading Bean for shipping. It is 
ready to pick in 42 to 46 days from planting here in Pennsylvania. The pods, averaging 
7 inches long, are of excellent quality, brittle, stringless, and quite meaty. Bountiful 
is 3 to 5 days earlier than Burpee’s Stringless Green-Pod; 5 to 7 days earlier than Schell’s 
Giant Stringless; and 10 to 15 days earlier than Schell’s Stringless Refugee. Pkt. 10 cts.;
