The section of country around Allen,
Wicomico county. Md. holds the record
for raising butter beans and it is said that
for the size Of the place there are more
butter beans raised around Allen than in
any other section of the United States.
For several years Allen has been the
largest butter bean growing section of the
Eastern Shore and just why the truckers
of other sections of Wicomico county have
not taken hold of producing this great
crop is wonder
Mr.. Beverly Hitch. of Allen, is said to
be the champion butter bean raiser of the
county and reports are to the effect that
