eHOTWKI.I.'S IMPBOVED THICK POLE LIMA BEAN. 



New Jersey Grown Pole Lima Beans 



"^ WHY THEY ARE THE BEST 



For nearly half a century Southern New Jer- 

 sey has had the reputation, and deservedly so, of 

 growing the finest Lima Beans in the United States, 

 the product being eagerly sought after by Boston, 

 New York, Philadelphia and other Eastern cities, 

 for both seed and consumption. For some years 

 past, however, many seedsmen have been growing 

 their supplies in Southern California, where they 

 are grown very cheaply and without poles. We 

 have made hundreds of tests of various Limas from 

 California seed, and find the product much inferior 

 in both quality and productiveness to those grown 

 in New Jersey. It is also difficult to get them to 

 take the poles, owing to the method by M'hich 

 they are grown, while the beans are smaller and 

 the rich, buttery flavor peculiar to the New 

 ^rsey Limas. 



Shotwell's Improved Thick Pole Lima 



Originated by one of the best and most expe- 

 rienced growers of Northern New Jersey. It is of 

 the thick or Potato Lima class, but will be found a 

 decided improvement on the Dreer's Improved 

 Pole Lima or any other bean of its class in earli- 

 ness, productiveness and fine quality. All claims 

 made for it have been fully substantiated by hun- 

 dreds of our customers who tried it the past 

 five seasons, and we regret we have not room here 

 to publish the many strong recommendations re- 

 ceived from them. Pkt., 10c. ; pint, 35c. ; qt., 65c., 

 postpaid ; by freight or express, qt., 50c. ; 2 qts., 

 90c ; peck, $2.50; bush., $9.00.
