FLAVOR-RITE BEANS 
Dwarf or Bush Green-Podded 
Culture. Beans grow well in any good garden 
soil. Usually the first planting can be made the 
last week in April, followed by successive plantings 
about two weeks apart until August 15. Open a 
drill 2 inches deep and drop the Beans 1 inch apart 
and cover. When well up, draw the soil up against 
the plants and cultivate frequently. Do not culti- 
vate them when the dew is on the plants, as this 
frequently causes rust. One pound of seed is suffi- 
cient for 50 feet of drill. 
BOUNTIFUL STRINGLESS (Schling’s Improved Se- 
lected Stock). Stringless; surpasses all others in 
criso, tender qualities and fine flavor. 
{MPROVED STRINGLESS GREEN-POD  (Tender- 
green). Round, dark green, stringless, tender, of 
finest quality. 
Plentiful. All-America Bronze Medal. An improved 
Bountiful type. Strong, productive plants, light 
green, straight flat pods entirely stringless and 
of excellent flavor. 
Stringless Black Valentine. A very early, round- 
podded variety of excellent quality. 
Dwarf Butter or Wax- 
Podded Bush 
IMPROVED GOLDEN WAX. Rustproof. (Special 
Stock.) 6 weeks. Long, flat, straight, fleshy, 
tender pods, entirely stringless, of the finest 
quality. . 
Pencil-Pod Black Wax. Pods 51% to 6 inches long, 
round, straight. 
Sure-Crop Stringless Wax. Entirely  stringless, 
hardy, and rust-resistant. 
Pole Lima Beans 
Where poles can be secured, these Beans are 
more productive than the Bush varieties. Set poles 
3 feet apart, enrich the soil in the hills by mixing 
with it a liberal supply of fertilizer or well-rotted 
manure. Do not plant until the ground is warm. 
One pound will plant 50 poles. 
LEVIATHAN EXTRA-EARLY. Earliest Pole Lima, 
and a very heavy bearer. Pods 5 to 6 inches 
long, with Beans of delicious flavor. We recom- 
mend it as the most prolific Pole Lima Bean. 
Carpinteria or Large Green-Seeded Pole Lima. The 
seeds have a decided green tinge, even when 
old, which they retain after cooking. 
Lima Beans, Dwarf or Bush 
Bush Limas are nearly 2 weeks earlier than Pole 
Limas. The seed is quite tender, and will rot while 
the ground is cold or wet, so do not plant before 
the ground is warm. For very best results, how- 
ever, the seed can be started in pots in a hotbed 
er in the greenhouse and the plants set out when 
the weather is settled. Plant in rows 3 feet apart 
and from 4 to 6 inches apart in the row, always 
edgewise, with the eye down. 
One pound will plant a row 50 feet long. 
Baby Potato Bush Lima. All-America Silver Medal, 
1940. Most outstanding Bush Bean to date. 
Bred for exquisite flavor and prolific production. 
The pods mature very uniformly in approxi- 
mately 72 days from sowing. 
FORDHOOK BUSH LIMA. Best variety for the 
home garden; very productive and of fine flavor. 
Beans are large, almost round, plump, of rich 
buttery flavor. 
BURPEE’S IMPROVED BUSH LIMA, Plant bears 
heavily, and the pods fill out very evenly. The 
Beans ore more flat than Fordhook. 
HENDERSON’S IMPROVED BUSH LIMA. Very 
small Beans, but the most prolific of all white- 
seeded Bush Limas. 
Other Pole Beans 
DECATUR. All-America Silver Medal, 1942. High- 
est award in the National Trials of new vege- 
tables. Exceedingly prom and highest re- 
sistance to disease. The plant attains a height 
of about 6 to 7 feet, bears a heavy crop of 
practically round, nearly straight pods of meaty 
stringless Beans of a dark green shade. We 
cannot recommend this Bean too highly. 
Scotia (Or Striped Creaseback). Accredited by 
some to be the finest Pole Bean, white seeds. 
Old Homestead or Kentucky Wonder. Marvelously 
productive, bearing abundantly and continuously 
from July to frost. Large, thick, stringless pods, 
which are meaty, tender, and delicious. 
Kentucky Wonder Wax. The finest runner Wax 
Bean. Huge pods in large clusters. 
Scarlet Runner. The pods are long, straight, fleshy, 
tender when young, and can be used like any 
other string Bean; the Beans shelled are pre- 
pared in the same manner as Limas and are very 
delicious. Also grown for its bright scarlet flow- 
ers, which are born profusely and are very 
ornamental. 
English Broad Beans 
Long Pod. The Broad Bean is grown entirely as a 
crop for shelling. Somewhat larger than Limas, 
delicious when cooked. English Broad Beans are 
very hardy and the seeds should be sown at the 
same time as peas. 
GARDEN or TABLE BEETS 
_ Sow as early as the ground can be worked, in 
rich garden soil. Sow in drills % to 1 inch in 
depth. Successive sowings can be made until July. 
One ounce will sow 40 feet of drill; 
5 to 6 pounds for an acre. 
SCHLING’S FIRST-EARLY BLOOD BEET. Turnip 
Shape. Ready for use in 40 days. Choicest of 
edible Beets. Turnip-shaped, somewhat flat at 
the bottom, and a deep red, fine grained, tender,

America Gold Medal. Semi-globe type, flesh 
deep red, smooth skin with small neck. Very 
tender. 
Extra-Early Egyptian. Smooth, flat, turnip-shaped 
roots of the finest quality; flesh deep red and 
very tender. 
Detroit Dark Red. (Special Stock.) Large, finest 
quality, oval, and matures in 50 days, We rec- 
ommend this variety for main crop and for win- 
ter storage. 4
