Beans for the Table, Canning or Freezing 
BURPEE’S STRINGLESS. 50 days. Attrac- 
tive, round green pods about 6” long, 
slightly curved and so thick, even when 
quite young, as to be double-barreled. 
Always tender, brittle, meaty, juicy, en- 
tirely stringless and of the finest flavor. 
The plants are medium-large, spreading, 
with dark green foliage; they are of 
strictly bush form, enormously productive 
and have yielded remarkably well under 
adverse conditions. Seeds are a dark coffee- 
brown color. A favorite bush bean for 
home use, canning, freezing and commercial 
planting.
