188 TOPCROP—AIl American for 1952 
Topcrop snapbean is one for theshome garden, market gar- 
den, shipper and processor. It is immune to common bean 
mosaic, and to “greasy pod,” or “shiny pod,’ a virus disease. 
Because of its mosaic resistance, it has consistently outyielded 
the commercial varieties of the same class such as Tender- 
green, Full Measure and others. Canning and freezing tests 
have proven most satisfactory for color, texture and flavor. 
Topcrop is earlier than Tendergreen, ready for picking in 51-53 
days. Plants grow 15-16 inches high with about 23 inches 
spread; vigorous, well branched with leaves slightly lighter 
than Tendergreen. High yields are borne during a short in- 
terval, giving: a few large pickings rather than a number of 
small pickings. Pkt., 15 cts.; % 1b., 45 cts.; lh., 75 cts.; 2 lbs., 
$1.35, postpaid. See Front Cover for color illustration.
