on beans in quantities listed "not paid." See inside front cover. 
Dwarf or Bush Varieties 
A “ packet ” of bush beans will plant 20 feet of row; a pound 150 feet. Soiv 60 to 75 lbs. per acre. 
1 lb. is equal to a pint, 2 lbs. 1 qt., 15 lbs. a peck. 
Grow plenty of beans. “Snap” or 
“String” Beans are one of the mainstays of the 
home garden. They are very easy to grow and 
take up comparatively little room. Planting a 
few every few weeks will give you plenty of 
fine beans right up until frost. 
Plant in rows 2 to 2y feet apart, dropping 
the seed 2 inches apart, or in groups of 3 to 4 at 
intervals of a foot in the row which makes 
hoeing easier. Do not plant until the ground is 
warm. In New York State and New England 
May 10th to 20th is early enough. 
There are innumerable varieties of garden 
beans. From time to time we have tried 
practically all of them, and from this long list 
we have selected what we think are the kinds 
which will be the most satisfactory to our 
customers. Our stocks of these varieties are 
carefully selected for purity, freedom from 
disease and trueness to type.

Dwarf Green Podded Beans 
TENDERGREEN. 
BOUNTIFUL 
Tendergreen 
Beans 
Unsurpassed for fine flavor. 
The Best Round Dwarf Green Bean. If you want really delicious, 
tender, fine flavored, early snap beans be sure to plant some of the Tender¬ 
green. There is no dwarf bean that has as fine quality. Many of our customers consider it the best 
quality bush bean they have ever eaten and will have nothing else for snap beans and canning. 
The pods are long, round as a pencil, very meaty and of an attractive light green color. They 
mature early and the vines are exceptionally strong and vigorous. This bean is remarkable for the 
large yields of long straight tender pods. 
This is also the best round podded variety both for market growers and the roadside 
stands. The handsome appearance brings customers and the quality keeps them coming 
back for more. 
Pkt. 10c; y Lb. 25c; Lb. 35c; 2 Lbs. 60c; iy Lbs. $1.85 transportation paid. Not paid: 
15 Lbs. $2.55; 60 Lbs. (Bu.) $8.40. 
The Best Flat-Podded Green Bean. If you want early beans, we 
advise this kind as it is one of the earliest green pod varieties. The 
pods are handsome, long, and straight. Although they are flat, the pods are meaty, tender 
and entirely stringless. It is very productive and continues in bearing a long time. One of 
the best market and home garden varieties. Our seed is grown in disease free fields from a 
carefully selected heavy yielding stock. There is no better stock obtainable. 
Pkt. 10c; y Lb. 25c; Lb. 35c; 2 Lbs. 60c; iy Lbs. $1.85 transportation paid. Not paid: 
15 Lbs. $2.55; 60 Lbs. (Bu.) $8.40. 
STRINGLESS BLACK VALENTINE—-(Asgrow). The pods are entirely stringless and 
when young, are nearly round, long, straight, very tender and of good flavor. The pods 
become somewhat flattened as they grow older. In our opinion the ever increasing popu¬ 
larity of this new bean is richly deserved. The vines are robust and produce an abun¬ 
dance of fine pods. One of the most prolific kinds we know. 
Pkt. 10c; y Lb. 25c; Lb. 35c; 2 Lbs. 60c; iy Lbs. $1.85 transportation paid. Not paid:
