POLE LIMA BEANS, 



CULTURE. — These require poles 8 to 10 feet long. The Beans should be 

 planted the middle of May if the season is suitable. Lima Beans are apt to rot if 

 planted too early. Set poles 4 feet apart each way, and plant 4 to 6 Beans, about 1 

 inch deep, around each pole. Thin out to 3 plants to a pole, if the soil is rich ; 

 pinch off the ends of plants when they overrun the top of the poles, to effect more 

 perfect growth below. They succeed best in sandy loam, with a shovelful of rich, 

 light and well-rotted compost to each hill, w^ell incorporated. Lima Beans for early 

 use may be grown in frames and transplanted.
