Eighty-five super-standard strains season of 1927 eightyfivesupers1927fran Year: 1927 SUPER-STANDARD STRAINS STOKES CROMTNG SINCE I57> SEEDS Dwarf Beans Fifty pounds of seed will plant an acre Green Bountiful Days to maturity, 45. We consider this one of the most desirable types of dwarf stringless Beans. It is early in maturity, a very vigorous producer, and of delicious flavor. Desiring to offer our trade something extra select in String Beans, we have taken stock seed far up into the north country where these seed crops have been grown privately for us. Green Bountiful is particularly valuable in that it will remain tender and brittle much longer than most sorts. Its pods are entirely stringless, will average 6 to 7 inches in length, are comparatively straight, flat, and of a fresh, light green color. The seed is a Jight yellow with a brown circle about the eye. It has been treated with an organic mercury as a protection against possible anthracnose infection. When this stock was inspected by a member of our firm during July it showed unusual purity of type. Price, delivered: y4lb. 15 cts.; lb. 40 cts.; 5 lbs. $; 25 lbs. $; 100 lbs. $22. Yellow Bountiful (sure-crop type) Days to maturity, 45. The two outstanding features of this Bean are, first, its clear bright color, and second, its great productiveness. Yellow Bountiful is very early, and absolutely stringless in the snap stage. The photograph below gives an excellent idea of the general type.^ Its pods, about 6 inches in length, are nearly straight, slightly flattened, and of good flavor. This stock, in every respect, can compare favorably with the Green Bountiful described above. It has had our very best care, and, as is the case with the Green Bountiful, has been treated with an organic mercury to disinfect against seed-borne disease. Price, delivered: V4lb. 15 cts.; lb. 40 cts.; 5 lbs. $; 25 lbs. $; 100 lbs. $22. Haricots Verts—A suggestion to the roadside marketer The French serve m
