Culture. — These require poles 8 to 10 feet long. The Beans should be planted the n.iddle 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 

 4 to 6 Beans, about 1 inch deep, around ea-h pole. Thin out to 3 plants to a pole, if the soil is rich; pinch off 

 the ends of plants when tiie^' overrun the top of the poles to effect more perfect {irowth l elow. They- 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.

wonderfuU.N' proclucti\-e. One of the best varieties of Pok> Lima for general use. This delicious \c<ic1al le is 

 denied many would-be grow ers on account of the length of season required to mature it, the eai l\' frost coming on 

 just as the crop is ready to pick. This sort is at least one week earlic]- than any large Pole Lima yet offered 

 and fully two weeks earlier than most, consequently it will prove a l)oon to thousands of growers. Earliness 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 incal- 

 culable value. Pkt. 5c. and 10c. , pt. loc, qt. 30c., pk. $1.75, bus. $6.50. . 



The pods are large and numerous, in- 

 variably having from four to five beans

 Dreer's Improved Lima. A very superior early variety, of excellent quality

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

 the sides of the stalk. These heads are a 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
