Bush Beans 
The Garden Bean was probably first cultivated in Western Asia and was known in Rome about 
2000 years ago. Average height of vine 15 inches. Two pounds will plant 100 yards; 80 lbs. per 
acre. Seed breaks ground in 6 days. One inch high in 9 days under most favorable circum- 
stances in greenhouse. We suggest planting only stringless types. Beans are one of the most 
desirable and easily cultivated vegetables that can be raised in the family garden. 
Green Pods 
Black Valentine, Stringless—50 Days. Color of seed black, shape 
long, slim, purple blossoms, vines 16 to 18 inches tall, pods half round 
to round. Slightly curved, absolutely stringless. Six to 63 inches long, 
color medium green, averaging 6 or 7 beans to the pod. Very prolific, 
extremely desirable for early planting, very hardy, productive. A most 
excellent shipper. 
Bountiful—50 Days. Vines 16 inches high, bushy and erect. . Color 
of seed light yellow with brownish color about eye. Pods large, flat, 
6 to 6% inches long containing 6 or 7 kidney shaped beans. Color of 
pods light green. Absolutely stringless. Always tender. One of the 
best for both market and private gardens. The earliest and most tender 
of the strictly flat stringless pods. 
Dwarf Horticultural, Speckled Cranberry, or Ruby—56 Days. 
Color of seed resembles Horticultural Pole. Height of vine, 14 inches. 
Pods flat, broad, almost straight, absolutely stringless, dashed with 
red as they ripen. About 5 inches long, averaging 5 beans to the pod. 
French Horticultural—70 Days. Later than the Dwarf Horticul- 
tural. Color of seed cream mottled purple. Height of vine 22 inches. 
Pods flat, straight to slightly curved, fibrous stringy as they grow old. 
Vines all show a running tendency, making a wild appearance; therefore, 
much more vigorous than Dwarf Horticultural, but not as productive. 
Pods all green until quite ripe, when they are dashed with a brilliant red. 
Valuable as a shell bean, averaging 6 or 7 beans to the pod. Pods 64 
to 7 inches. 
Full Measure—58 Days. Seed speckled mahogany color. Height of 
vine 14 to 16 inches. Average 6 beans to pod. Foliage slightly larger 
than Landreths’ Stringless Green Pods, and more of a yellowish green. 
Pods average 6 inches long, more curved than Stringless Green Pods, 
absolutely stringless, possibly more green in color. Pods are round, 
but they are not so large in circumference as Landreths’ Stringless 
Green Pods, nor as hardy. 
Giant Stringless Green Pod—56 Days. Color of seed yellow. Long, 
cylindrical. Height of vine, 13 to 15 inches. Foliage resembles Full 
Measure, but is yellowish green. Not so early by 2 or 3 days as the 
Stringless. Pods round, meaty, similar to Stringless, slightly straighter 
Bountiful and narrower. A showy pod, about 6 inches long, containing 6 or 7 beans. 

N England, at total war for more than two years, the printing of all 
catalogues has been prohibited, with the exception of SEED CATA- 
LOGUES. Thus the voice of experience makes it clear that democracies, 
fighting for a victorious existence, are vitally interested in everyone, 
wherever possible, planting seeds for food production.
