NOVELTY OF THE AGE. 



THE FINEST LIMA BEAN ON EARTH. 



A Prize Winner That Will Please 

 Everyone. 



BUCKBEE'S NEW GOLDEN LIMA. 



In order that you may help to introduce it in your neighborhood, I offer 

 A LIBERAL PACKAGE OF THIS NOVELTY FOR ONLY 15 CENTS, 

 4 Pkts. for 50c, or 9 Pkts. for $1.00. 



Exdusively owned and coritroUed by H. W. Buckbee. The rich- 

 est and most delicious flavored bean known. As pure Jersey cream 

 excels aU others in richness, so this bean excels aU other varieties, 

 having a richness not found in any other bean. 



Controlling the entire stock of this prize winner, it will not be found 

 quoted in any other catalogue, as I prefer to give my own customers 

 the first benefit of securing this valuable novelty from me at the low- 

 est price ever known for such a desirable novelty variety.

 The leaves are teed to contain 25 or more a rich.beautif ul 

 gi-ecn m coior, and have never been known to rust. The plant is a healthy ggeds. grower, vigor- 

 ous and enormously productive, so much so lhat harvesting :hem becomes a de- | '_ i light ; so 



is the yield that it is a continual surprise. Beginning to bear in July, they con- tinue to yield 



a bountiful harvest throughout the entire season. , j , , rr-u v. 



The pods are of medium size, containing from four to six beans, so plump and full that the ends overlap one another. The beans, 

 even when dried, are of a most beautiful eolden color and are a great curiosity. They are equally delicious for cooking when dried, 

 and are thus of great value as a winter dish when good vegetables are hard to find, consequently careful housewives will see to it 

 that they have a good stock of this delightful and nutritious variety laid by for time of need. _ ^ . . -c, 



For the private garden no other varietv can be compared to this so far does it excel them m all good characteristics, i or the 

 same reason Golden Lima will be of the greatest value to the market gardener, as when it has once been introduced to the consumer he 

 will have no other. Why not plant the best and thus procure the cream of the trade, and make a reputation for yourself for handling 

 the very best varieties in the market? ^, , , ,. 



Golden Lima is not only the richest and most tender bean in cultivation, but it possesses many other good quahties, such as earU- 

 ness, hardiness and productiveness, thus renderinsr it most emphatically the King of all Limas. , , x ^ j. j 



Possibly sr-ne of my readers may not enjoy Lima Beans as thev generally run. Try this variety cooked as I suggest to you, and 



then let me h^-,.- your verdict ^^^^^ regarding its quahties. If the fresh beans are 



to be cooke after shellino- I them throw into hot water and cook slowly for 

 about an hoar Then add WHAT A PROJVIINENT BEAN SPECIALIST SAYS: cream and seasoning, and you will have a deli- 

 cious and appetizing dish. If dry beans are to be used, it is a good plan to 



soak them over night, then mr. F. E. SPARKS, Detroit, Mich. : cook slowly, Deing careful to keep enough water
