FORD'S MAMMOTH PODDED POLE 

 LIMA BEAN 



This Lima Bean is the result of over 

 twenty years' selection by the late Jas. 

 Ford, who was one of the oldest market 

 gardeners around Philadelphia. The pods 

 grow to an average length of 8 Inches, are 

 produced in great clusters, with from five to 

 seven beans per pod, of most excellent qual- 

 ity for using either green or dry. The vines 

 grow vigorously, setting the beans early at 

 the bottom of the pole, and continue in bear- 

 ing right up to frost. Ford's Mammoth Pod- 

 ded is, without exception, the largest pod- 

 ded, finest flavored and most productive of 

 all Pole Lima Beans. Pkt., 10c; pt., 30c; qt., 

 55c, postpaid; by freight or express, pt., 20c;
