NAVY bean is the popular name
IN given to the small white
''soup" or pea" bean. They
were SO called because large
quantities of such beans have
been purchased and used by the
navy for years. The navy bean,
however, is now being supplanted
by another variety. Such beans
bought by the navy during the
last two years could not be dried
sufficiently to be stored well.
Large quantities of them develop.
