Lima Bean. This new Bean represents 
; the highest achievement 
in bean breeding. The plants are of 
stifly erect habit, twenty inches in 
height, branching freely, but with all

varieties of bush limas. The leaves are 
identical with that of the Burpee’s bush 
lima, while the pods and beans are of 
the Kummerle or Dreers bush lima type, 
but twice in size. They bear from July 
until frost almost unbelievable quanti- 
ties of five to six inch pods, each con- 
taining usually four large, thick beans

The pole variety of Beans are of strong running growth 
and need stout poles or other support on which to climb. 
They require a longer season to mature pods than the 
bush varieties, but by reason of their stronger growth 
are more productive, and growing on poles are more 
easily gathered. When planted in the garden, poles should 
be set three to four feet apart each way. A shovelful of 
rich compost or well-rotted manure should be placed in 
the soil at the base of the pole before planting the seed.
