BEANS, BUSH LIMA. 



Lima Beans do not receive the attention in our state that they de- 

 serve. Sown at the same time as Wax Beans, they mature a crop 

 of shell beans by August. These shelled Lima Beans are admitted to 

 be the most delicately flavored of all the Bean family. Lima Beans 

 and shelled green corn constitute the famous dish called "Succotash," 

 so much used in the Eastern States.

the size of large Pole Linias. Pkt. 10c; pint 15c; quart 30c; %

 ing the lat- 

 ter part of

The Pole varieties should be sown in hills about four feet apart, drop- 

 ping five or six Seeds in each hill, to the depth of about 2 inches. Being 

 more tender than the Bush varieties, the planting of them should be delayed 

 about two weeks after the usual time for planting the latter. A sandy 

 soil suits them best, but the hills should have a liberal quantity of manure 

 ■worked in previous to planting the Seed. One quart to 150 hills; 10 to 12 

 quarts per acre.
