USH LIMA. 
Lima Beans do not receive the attention in our State that they deserve. 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 shelied green 
corn constitute the famous dish called ‘‘ Succotash,’’ so much used in the Eastern States. 
Jackson Wonder Dwarf Lima—An extraordinary productive variety, with broad, 
flat pods similar in shape to the small Lima. The pods may be used as Snap Beans when 
young, and when filled shelled as Lima Beans. Pkt. 10c; pint 20c; quart 30c; 4 peck

delicious Beans all through the summer. Pkt. 10c: pint 20c; quart 30c; 4 peck 95c; peck

CAULIFLOWE 
German, Blumenkobl, French, Choufleur. 
As recommended in Cabbage culture, the seed should be sown in February oi 
March in a hot-bed, transplanting the plants, when large enough into another or the 
same frame, and gradually hardening them off, preparatory to planting them out as 
early as the ground is in a fit condition. Any good garden soil, if thoroughly cultivated 
and made very rich by manuring, will suit. Careful attention in the matter of water- 
ing, destroying insects and thorough cultivation will be repaid. 1 oz. for about. 
1,000 plants set 2} feet apart cach way.
