POLE 

 LIMA 



BEANS 



Set the poles 3 

 to 4 feet apart and 

 plant 6 to 8 beans, 

 with, the eyes 

 downward, around 

 each pole thinning' 

 to 4 healthy plants 

 when they are up. 

 They require the 

 same soil and 

 treatment as the 

 dwarf varieties. 



CABFENTERIA FOIi£ IiIMA. — The newest large pole Lima; enormously prolific; early green and delicious flavor. 



HEKDEBSON'S EABI^Y IiEVIATHAN, — This is the very earliest. It will not only give large Lima beans earlier than 

 any other strain, but it is also much more productive, both early and throughout the season, it is a strong grower, 

 clinging well to the poles, and is a sure cropper. The pods hang out from the foliage in large clusters and contain three 

 or four and sometimes five large beans to the pod. 



ZING OP THE GABDEir Z.mA — This bean has met with enormous sales the past few seasons. They are vigorous 

 growers, setting their beans early at bottom of pole, producing continuously to the end of the season. They are 

 more prolific than the ordinary Lima, bearing pods 5 to 7 inches long, in clusters of 4 and 5, with 5 or 6 beans in a 

 pod. 



EXTRA IiABGE WHITE IiIMA. — This is a splendid sort, and takes a leading place with growers, because of its many 

 excellent qualities. As a shell bean surpasses all in quality and is the favorite with most people. 



EXTRA EARLY JERSEY LIMA. — This vTriety is two weeks earlier than other sorts; the pods are large and numer- 

 ous, making it a very profitable sort to grow. 



DREER'S IMPROVED OR CHALIiENGE POLE BEAN. — This popular bean is considered by many growers superior to 

 all others in quality and productiveness. When green it is as large as the Large Lima, thicker, sweeter and more 

 tender and nutritious, remaining green in the pod for a long time after maturing. 



CAROLINA OR SIEVA. — A seedling variety of large White Lima, with small pods, usually about 2 inches long. A 

 little earlier and hardier.

BEETS 



CROSBY'S IMPROVED 

 EGYPTIAN 



One Ounce of Seed will sow One Hundred Feet of Drill 



Select a deep, rich sandy loam and manure with well decomposed compost or a good 

 chemical fertilizer. Sow in drills, 14 to 16 inches apart, and cover 1 inch deep. When the 

 young plants appear, thin to 4 or 5 inches apart. For early use, sow as soon as the 

 ground can be worked in the spring; for autumn use, about the middle of May; and for 

 winter use, during June or July, according to the variety — the long varieties requiring 

 more time to mature than the round early kinds. 



ECLIPSE BEET. — This extra early Beet is remarkable for its fine quality and rapid 

 growth; is of deep red color and handsome shape. As an early market sort it is unrivaled. 

 It is to a large extent superseding the Egyptian, being earlier in development, more 

 attractive in appearance, and of superior quality for the table. 



CROSBY'S IMPROVED EGYPTIAN BEET. — A very superior strain of the well-known 

 Egyptian, carefully selected, blood color, quick, rapid growth. The shape is very desir- 

 able, as shown in the accompanying photograph, being not so round as the 

 Eclipse, or quite so fiat as the ordinary Egyptian. It may be sown outside 

 as late as July. 



EARLY WONDER BEET. — This grand new Beet, recently introduced, is 

 early, Red with short tops, fine for bunch- 

 ing. Roots are of good, uniform size, 

 slightly oval, and of deep blood red, has 

 slim tap roots, fine grain, tender and sweet. 

 Never gets stringy or woody. Fine foi i 

 home use and market garden. M 



EXTRA EARLY EGYPTIAN. — This is a 

 fiat Beet, very early and deep red color. 

 Owing to the small top it can be planted 

 very close. 



G. 8c T. CO.'S EARLY BLOOD TURNIP 

 BEETS. — This is our Special Stock of Early 

 Blood Turnip Beet, which we liave been 

 growing for a number of years, and which 

 the market gardeners of Baltimore and 

 other places prefer. It is of dark red color, 

 handsome shape, and early. 



DETROIT DARK RED TURNIP BEET. — 



This is one of the finest formed and hand- 

 somest colored Beets on the market. It is 

 unsurpassed in the uniformity and beauty 

 of the crop. It is exceedingly early, and 

 produces more marketable specimens on the 

 same acreage than any other variety.
