Beans : a guide to seed growers / by T.F. Ritchie ; with water colour drawings by Faith Fyles.: A12-2/153-1931E-PDF
"With the idea of a fixed type for each variety of garden bean, there has arisen a need for a type book dealing with the technical description of each of the twenty-five varieties decided upon as the most outstanding by the vegetable committee under the Canadian Seed Growers' Association. This list of selected varieties is included in the Standard List of Variety Names that was prepared by the above mentioned committee. ... Since this bulletin is to serve as a guide to seed growers, in the form of a type book, no reference is made to rating of the different varieties one with the other. It is hoped that this publication will be a means of establishing a fixed type, for each variety, for present and future seed production"--Foreword, p. 3.
