47 Burpee’s 
Tender Pod O 
Stringless Bush Bean 
48 days. All-America Bronze Medal 
Winner. Tender Pod Bean has quality, 
tenderness, succulence, and flavor from 
the time the pods first reach edible size 
until the seed is well developed. The 
pods are 4% to 5 in. long, thick, round 
in cross section, smooth, deep, dark 
green in color, curving slightly, with 
long and distinctively curved tips. 
They are stringless, of course, 
very fleshy, brittle, and 
succulent — the most ten- 
der podded bush bean. 
The seed is pearly white, 
with a small red spot on 
either side of the eye, so 
that it is also suitable for 
use as a dried bean. 
Tender Pod Bush Bean 
will be of the greatest 
value to the home garden, 
where its superior table 
quality can best be ap- 
preciated. For canning, 
it has no equal; matures 
early and is very produc- 
tive. Pkt. 15¢; 
1% Ib. 35¢; lb. 65¢.

35 Bansei 
96 days. Since the recent introduction of vegetable 
type soy beans into this country, the demand for seed 
has constantly increased. These beans are not only 
delicious when eaten green or dry, but they are also 
an excellent source of Vitamins A, B, and G. The 
Bansei variety is one of the earliest and most produc- 
tive of all and very adaptable in its growing require- 
ments; it will produce crops in nearly any section of 
the country. Plants grow 24 in. high and do not re- 
quire support. They are literally loaded with pods, as 
may be seen by looking at the picture to the right. 
The individual pod gives you an idea as to the size of 
the beans themselves. Seeds are bright green while 
young and yellow when mature. Ask for cooking in- 
structions when ordering seed. Pkt. 10¢;
