EDIBLE SOY BEANS 
A pound of seed will sow about 150 feet of row, 
a packet, 20 feet 
The edible Soy Bean has become increas- 
ingly popular in this country, because of its 
high vitamin content and also because it is 
very high in protein and fat. They are the 
easiest bean to grow and yield enormous 
crops. The beans may be eaten in the green 
stage when cooked and served similar to 
Lima Beans, and also are well liked dry and 
roasted in much the same manner as nuts. 
Sow in rows 3 feet apart, dropping about 
6 seeds per foot of row. The plants do not 
require support. 
Bansei. This variety ripens early and is the 
best for northern sections; it is adapted to 
a wide range of growing conditions. The 
seed is small and round and of yellow color. 
The plants grow about 2 feet high. Pkt. 
10e;, 4% lb, 25c., Ibs 45c.,, 2’ lbs, 85c: 
Anwei. The Anwei resembles the Bansei in 
color but is more round in shape. Pro- 
duces firm, ¢risp sprouts noticeably free 
from the earthen flavor characteristic of 
sprouts from most field and some edible 
varieties. The cooked mature bean pre- 
sents tender skin and desirable flavor. 
Plants stand rigidly erect and grow to me- 
dium height. A prolific bearer with seed 
pods often extending from the top of the 
stalk to within an inch or two of the ground. 
Beans in the green stage are ready to har- 
vest within about 75 to 80 days from plant- 
ing and are fully matured in approxi- 
mately 100 days. The mature bean is me- 
dium to small in size, depending upon 
growing weather and soil conditions and 
pods have a tendency to shatter if per- 
mitted to overripen before harvest. This 
latter characteristic facilitates shelling 
the beans. Pkt. 10c., 1% lb. 25c., lb. 45c., 
2 Ibs. 85c.
