LIMA BE ANS-Pole Varieties 



One q-'Lort iriU plant 100 hUh. 

 Culture. — These require poles S 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 

 four to six Beans about 1 inch deep, around each pole. Thin out to three plants to a pole, if the soil is rich: pinch 

 off the ends of the plants when they overrun the top of the poles to effect more perfect growth below. They suc- 

 ceed best in sandy loam, with a shoveh'ul of rich, light and well-rotted compost to each hill, well incorporated. 

 Lima Beans for early use may be grown in frames and transplanted. 



Schultz's Earlv Market week earKer than any other Pole Lima and two weeks earlier than 



' most. Of superior quahty. immense size, wonderfully productive. One of 



the best varieties of Pole Lima for general use. This delicious vegetable is denied many would-be growers on 

 accotmt of the length of season required to mature it. the early frost coming on just as the crop is ready to pick. 

 This sort is at least one week earher tTian any large Pole Lima 3-et oft'ered and ftiUy two weeks earher than most, 

 consequently it will prove a boon to thousands of growers. Earhness is often obtained at the sacrifice of other 

 valuable features, but in this vaiiety we claim superiority, not only in this respect, but in size of bean and pod 

 and enormous productiveness. It is. in fact, about perfect and of incalctilable value. Pkt; oc. and lOc, pt.

Buroee's Giant-Podded largest podded and hea^-iest cropper of all Lima Beans. The pods are 

 £_ truly gigantic in size, frequently measuring from 7 to S}A inches in length 



by 1^2 to nearly 2 inches in width. The beans are extra large and thicker than 



any other Pole Lima, excepting only those of the Potato Lima t^Tpe: they are 



invariably of finest flavor. Burpee's Giant-Podded excels all other Limas in -^-igor 



of growth. The vines grow so rapidly that they quickly cover the poles. In rich 



ground we would recommend planting only two or three seeds to a hill and thin- 

 ning out CO one plant. The pods, borne in clusters of from four to eight, stand 



out well from the foliage. Pkt. 5c. and 10c. , pt. 40c.. ot. 70c.. pk. -84.50. bus.
