Dwarf Green-Podded Beans 
One pound will plant 100 feet of row; 60 pounds will plant an acre 
Plentiful. (New.) For many years Bountiful has been, by far, 
the leading flat-podded green dwarf variety. Plentiful, though 
2 or 3 days later in maturing, has slightly thicker, darker 
green, and much longer, 8-inch straight pods of better flavor. 
Bountiful. The best heaviest yielding, flat-podded variety, with 
light green pods, 61% to 7 inches Jong, stout, flat, somewhat 
curved, and absolutely stringless, in clusters, making this the 
easiest one to pick. Very early, vigorous, and produces heavily. 
Full Measure. The fine stringless medium green pods are straight, 
6 inches long, very fleshy, round, crease-backed, have no neck, 
show depressions around the Bean, and are tender. Follows 
Bountiful by a few days and is a heavy cropper. 
Tendergreen. This matures early, with 64% 
to 7-inch pods, quite slender, straight, and 
perfectly round. They are light green, 
absolutely stringless, meaty and tender, 
maturing at same season as Full Measure. 
Black Valentine. The original strain, with round, 
straight slim pods, earlier than the Stringless 
strain but having strings. It is very prolific. 
Black Valentine, Asgrow Stringless. The pods are 
quite oval in cross section and are somewhat 
curved, but entirely stringless. The yield is 
slightly lighter than the original Black Valentine. 
Black Valentine Stringless. This strain is be- 
coming very popular im all sections. The 6-inch 
pods are round, quite straight, dark green and 
stringless. They are usually ready for picking 
in 55 days. A fine market variety. 
Burpee’s Stringless. Very early, productive, hardy 
and vigorous, with dark green pods, 5 inches 
long; straight, stout, round, and crease-backed, 
They are tender, brittle, and strictly stringless, 
French’s Horticultural, Long-Pod. Strong, sturd 
vines laden with broad, straight, 6 to 7-inc 
pods, heavily splashed with striking bright red, 
he improved strain we now offer has better 
length of pod, heavier yield, and more vivid color, 
Grown as a Shell Bean only; very sweet-flavored, 
Streamliner. This is a new variety and is white 
seeded. Of very high quality, the Beans are 
ready to pick in about 50 days. They are ten- 
der, flat, from 8 to 10 inches Jong, stringless and 
quite free from fibre. 
Dwarf Wax-Podded Beans 
Pencil-Pod Wax. Very strong, vigorous, 15 inches high, and 
very productive. The pods are large, 614 to 7 inches long, 
fully rounded, straight and deeply saddle-backed, golden 
yellow, stringless, brittle, and fleshy. 
Sure-Crop Wax. Called Yellow Bountiful. Best flat-podded 
wax with vigorous plants and a very heavy yield of 61-inch, 
deep yellow, thick, brittle, stringless, rust-resisting pods. 
Unrivaled Wax. It has a quite small plant, is very early, and 
bears enormous crop of translucent pale yellow pods about 
51 inches Jong, somewhat curved, half round, rather slim, 
but fleshy, and tender. Can be sown all season.
