Beans 
It starts bearing 
Bush Lima Beans 
Culture—Lima Beans are very susceptible to cold and seeds should not be planted until the ground 
has become thoroughly warm. Being gross feeders, they should be sown on well-enriched land, with the 
rows 24 feet apart, placing the beans six inches apart in the row, eye down. In light soil, cover about 
one inch deep, less on heavier soils. A good fertilizer applied at the rate of 20 pounds to every hundred 
feet of row, when the plants begin to bloom, will materially increase the yields. Hill plants slightly earlier 
in the season to hold the pods off the ground. One pound will plant 50 feet of row. 
111 Dreer’s Wonder 
Bush Lima 
A most desirable Bush Lima Bean because it is 
extremely early and very productive. The plants 
are of strong upright growth, heavily laden with 
large pods many of which contain 4 beans each. 
Many gardeners pronounce the broad, flat beans 
superior in flavor to those of the round, thick- 
seeded varieties. We highly recommend it and 
suggest that you give it a thorough trial this year.

107 Fordhook Bush Lima 
This splendid variety is well known wherever 
Lima Beans are grown as it combines productive- 
ness with choice quality. The plants make a 
vigorous, upright growth so that the pods are held 
well above the soil surface. This keeps them clean 
and avoids rust and rot even during wet seasons. 
The pods are borne in clusters which accounts for 
the productiveness of this splendid variety. Each 
pod is about 5 inches in length and contains 4 or 5 
very thick, light green, oval beans which have a 
distinctive rich nut-like flavor quite unlike any 
other variety. Fordhook Bush Lima is a quick 
seller on all markets and home gardeners favor it 
for the heavy yield it will give and the exception- 
ally fine flavor of the thick beans. Pkt. 10c; 
4 Ib. 25c; lb. 45c; 2 Ibs. 80c; 5 lbs. $1.60, prepaid.

pod. They are thick and have a most delicious,
