WADE HMSCF BURMA 
A new variety bred and developed by the late Dr. B. L. Wade of the U.S.D.A., 
for whom it was named. The unusual dark emerald green pod color of this 
fine new bean distinguishes it from other recent introductions. It is very 
productive. It is resistant to common bean mosaic, and should make an ex- 
cellent processing bean, as well as a shipping and garden favorite. 
VINE —Vigorous, erect, fairly tall; dark green in color. Pods set somewhat 
low on plant and occasionally tend to touch the ground. 
PODS—$6%% inches in length, stringless, smooth, round and of a very distinc- 
tive dark green color. A little fiber develops around No. 6 sieve size, 
but otherwise tender and of fine quality. 
SEED—Medium to dark reddish brown, 1250 per pound. 
WHITE HALF RUNNER (Early White Half Runner) HC BIRON 
A popular variety in the mountain areas of the mid-south and southeast; used 
mainly in home gardens, for snap and shelled beans. 
VINE —Bushy, vigorous and productive with short runners. 
PODS—4 inches long, 3% inches wide, round, medium light green, stringy and 
fibrous at full size, but has a distinctively good flavor.
