BRUSSELS SPROUTS 



Culture. — A species of the Cabbage family which produces miniature heads from 

 the sides of the stalk. These heads are of great delicacy, boiled in the same way as 

 Cauliflower. The seeds should be sown about the middle of May, in a seed-bed, 

 and the plants afterward set in rows 2 feet or more apart, and cultivated like 

 Cabbage. This vegetable does not require extremely high cultivation, however, 

 It is ready for use late in Autumn, after the early frosts. 



The finest variety; of -vigorous growth, and 

 producing handsome, solid, round sprouts

One quart will plant 100 hills. 

 Culture.— These require poles 8 to 10 feet long. The Beans -should be planted the middle of Mav. 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 the plants when they overrun the top of the poles to effect more perfect growth below. Thev succeed 

 best in sandy loam, with a shovelful 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 Early Market Pole Lima O^e week earlier than any other Pole Lima and two weeks 



SI earlier than most. Of superior quality, 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 account of the length of season required to mature it, the early frost coming 

 on just as the crop is readj' to pick. This sort is at least one week earher than any large Pole Liiaa yet offered 

 and fully two weeks earlier than most, consequently it will prove a boon to thousands of growers. EarUness is 

 often obtained at the sacrifice of other valuable features, but in this variety 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 

 incalculable value. Pkt. oc. and 10c. , pt. 30c., qt. 60c., pk. S4.50, bus. S16.00. 



The largest ppdded and heaviest cropper of all Lima Beans. The pods are 

 truly gigantic in size, frequently measuring from seven to eight and one-half 

 inches in length by one and a half to nearly two inches in width. The beans 

 are extra large and thicker than any other Pole Lima, excepting only those of the 

 Potato Lima type; they are invariably of finest flavor. Burpee's Giant-Podded 

 excels all other Limas in vigor 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 thinning out to one plant. The pods borne in clusters 

 of from four to eight, stand out well from the foliage. Pkt. 5c. and 10c. , pt.
