Bitty Herter Seep Caratog For 1955 it 
CHAMPAGNE—Named after Ernest’ Champagne of Farmington, New 
Hampshire, who first called it to our attention. This white seeded 
heirloom variety grows twenty or more feet high and produces clus- 
ters of high quality long podded snap beans. Because of its vigorous 
growth it keeps on setting new beans and often you can pick both 
green shell and snap beans at the same time. While resembling Ken- 
tucky Wonder we think it is superior in quality, productiveness, size of 
plant, resistance to disease, and all around use. Eight to ten hills will 
produce enough beans for the average family. Pkt. 25 cts.; 14 lb. 60 ets. 
1 lb. $1.05. 
WINFIELD—This is a true pole lima bean, early and productive, and 
the only lima bean that we have been able to mature consistently. 
One of our customers said that we did not begin to praise this bean 
enough. He said it was the highest yielding and the best quality lima 
bean that he had ever tried, especially for canning and for freezing. 
Pkt. 25 cts.; 1% lb. 75 ets. 
KENTUCKY WONDER—New England’s favorite green snap pole 
bean. Prolific and of high quality. Pkt. 20 cts.; % lb. 40 cts.; 1 lb. 
80 cts.; 2 Ibs. $1.50; 5 Ibs. $2.80. 
SHELL AND DRY BEANS (BUSH) 
FLASH—A UNH imtroduction. Flash has both red pods and red beans 
in the green shell stage. As a roadside market bean it is very attrac- 
tive either shelled or in the pod. This bean is a favorite in New Hamp- 
shire. It is an excellent baking bean. Pkt. 20 cts.; % Ib. 40 ets.; 1 Ib. 
80 cts.; 2 lbs. $1.50; 5 Ibs. $2.95. 
SHELLEASY—A UNH introduction. It is a heavier yielder, a little 
earlier, and more disease-resistant than other varieties. Its high yield, 
easy shelling, and beautiful red pods and beans will make it a favor- 
ite for years to come. Pkt. 20 cts.; 14 lb. 45 cts.; 1 lb. 85 cts.; 2 lbs. 
$1.60; 5 Ibs. $3.00. 
SCARLET BEAUTY—A UNH itroduction. Professor Meader has 
worked on this variety for 5 or 6 years with the result that Scarlet 
Beauty has long pods, brightly colored with especially beautiful 
shelled beans. We predict a great future for this bean. Pkt. 25 ets.; 
14 lb. 60 cts.; 1 Ib. $1.00. 
LITTLETON HORTICULTURE—This strain of Horticulture bean ex- 
celled all others in a test of about 20 heirloom Horticulture beans from 
New Hampshire. We highly recommend this bean as a baking bean. It 
outyields all other beans we have grown in our trials at Durham. Our 
grower in central New Hampshire prefers this bean over all others 
of its type. It is the heaviest vielding and most disease-resistant bean 
on his farm. The bean is kidney-shaped and has excellent quality. 
Pkt. 20 cts.; 1% Ib. 40 cts.; 1 lb. 80 cts.; 2 Ibs. $1.55; 5 Ibs. $2.95.
