Edible Soybeans 
In recent years many varieties of edible soybeans 
have been imported from the Orient by the U. S. 
Department of Agriculture, and detailed studies on 
their adaptation to North American growing condi- 
tions have been made. As a result we offer the fol- 
lowing varieties. They are very prolific, highly 
resistant to disease and insect pests, of attractive 
appearance and eating qualities when cooked and 
served similar to Lima Beans. 
The number of days refers to picking for use as 
green shelled beans; full maturity for dry shelled 
beans is 30 days later. At green eating stage all 
have dark green beans, more or less oval in shape, 
though varying in size. Steep pods of Soybeans in 
boiling water for a few minutes and they will shell 
out readily. 
BANSEI—96 days. A fine home garden variety for 
green shelling. Very productive, pods yellow with 
black tinge. Plant erect and medium height, Pods 
not as susceptible to shattering when ripe. 
GIANT GREEN—91 days. A home garden sort and 
desirable in localities with short growing season. 
recommended for use in green shell stage. Shatters 
badly upon ripening. Plant short and erect. 
SAC—85 days. One of the earliest varieties of edible 
soybeans. Similar to Giant Green, in seed charac- 
teristics; however, grows a trifle taller and seed 
pods are not subject to shattering when ripe.
