Improved Stringless Green-Pod, also known as Burpee Stringless Green-Pod and Landreth Stringless Green-Pod. This, 
the newest improved strain, is one of the earliest of all round-pod green Beans. Hundreds of acres of them are grown from our 
good seed. (Our Mr. Hoover is at the right in the picture of this big crop.) Order plenty of seed, enough for two crops—one plant- 
ing early, the second planting in July. We pay the postage. 
Quality Seed sow To Grow BUSH BEANS. Make the rows 18inches to 2 feet 
apart and drop the Beans 4 inches apart in the row. If the soil is warm 
GREEN-POD B USH and loose, plant 2 inches deep; if rather cold and wet, plant only 1 inch 
 ceneaieeemmmmntaimesimmmerst ote ; deep. Beans, especially yellow-podded, rot very easily if planted when 
the soil is wet and the atmosphere is cold. If you do not want to run the risk of replanting them, do not plant your Beans until the 
soilis warm. Cultivate often but never when the plants are wet as this brings on rust. Pick the Beans as fast as they become fit 
for use; this makes them bear longer. One pound will plant a row 100 feet long; about 114 bus. to the acre. Work plenty of fer- 
tilizer into the soil before planting. It is very wise and beneficial to inoculate all Beans, Limas and Peas with LEGUME-AID. 
It forms nodules on the roots, which draw much nitrogen from the air and feed it to the plants, stimulating vigorous growth.
