beans, and what little string exists is not developed 
until the pod is quite old. The flavor is most delicious, 
and it has the peculiarity of preserving its delicate 
color almost intact when prepared for thetable. It is 
remarkably early, being ready for use four days in 
advance of any variety of merit. Its bearing qualities 
are unexcelled, and it matures its crop very regularly, 
even under adverse conditions. (See cut.) 10c. pkt.,

EXTRA EARLY REFUGEE.—It is similar in every respect 
to the ordinary Refugee, but is nearly two weeks earlier. Itis 
enormously prolific, and from its earliness is almost certain to 
produce a crop, no matter how unfavorable the season. In qual- 
ity it is unexcelled, being exceptionally free from string, and 
meltingly tender at all stages of its growth. (See cut.) 10c. pkt.,

BUSH LIMA BEANS. 
BURPHEH’S BUSH LIMA. While nominally a bush form of the 
Large White Lima, growing about twenty inches high, we have 
lately found Burpee’s Bush Lima has a greater tendency to revert to 
the running variety than any of the other Dwarf Limas. While not 
so early as Henderson’s Bush Lima, its larger size will commend it 
tomany. The pods are about the size of the Large Pole Limas and 
contain nearly as many beans. 10c. pkt., 15c. 14 pt., 20c. pt., 35¢.

years, the beans growing close together in the pods, and being very thick, 
sweet and succulent; it is generally considered of finer quality than the Large 
Pole Lima. This bush form is entirely fixed in its character, growing about 
eighteen inches high and of vigorous habit. This variety, from its abundant 
foliage, always succeeds better in a dry season, and we would advise planting 
it two feet apart. 10c. pkt., 15c. 1g pt., 20c. pt., 35¢. qt., $2.00 peck.
