TOP CROP 
Outyields Standard Kinds 
By Half Again As Much | 
105. (50 days) All-America winner in 1949 and 
an outstanding star in our Test Gardens again 
last year! The plants make a vigorous growth 
and set an unbelievable big crop. The pods are 
long and round, meaty and really stringless. 
Can't be beat for flavor dnd tenderness. The 
big yield comes on during a short period, so 
you make a few big pickings instead of numer- 
ous small ones. The seeds inside the pod of 
Top Crop develop slowly, making an extra 
thick and meaty pod. They are still tender and 
stringless after others would be tough and use- 
less, No matter what other green beans you 
have in your garden, be sure you plant TOP 
CROP this year. It’s a winner. Big 3-Ox. Pkt.
