Schultz's Early Market Pole Lima 



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 

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

 tin . nds of plants when they overrun the top of the poles to effect more perfect growth below. They succeed 

 best in sandy loam, with a snovelful of rich, light and well-rotted compost to each hill, well incorporated. Lima 

 Be an.-- for early use may be grown in frames and transplanted. 



( )ne week earlier than any other Pole Lima and two weeks 

 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 ready to pick. This sort is at least one week earlier than any large Pole Lima yet offered 

 and fully two weeks earlier than most, consequently it will prove a boon 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. 20c, qt. 35c., pk $2.25, bus. $8.00. 



The. pods are large and numerous, in- 

 variably having from four to five beans 

 in each pod. These Beans apnear in market nearly one week ahead of ordinary

Siebert's Extra Early Lima 



Early Leviathan 



Carpinteria Lima 



This is the very earliest. It will not only give large 

 Lima Beans earlier than any other strain, but 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 differ from 

 those of other early Pole Limas in being straighter and longer. The pods hang 

 out from the foliage in large clusters and contain three or four and sometimes 

 five large beans to the pod. Pkt. 5c and 10c, pt. 20c, qt. 30c, gal. $1.00, 

 pk. $2.00, bus. $7.50. 



The beans of this splendid Pole Lima have a greenish 

 tint, an indication of good quality and an advantage 

 in appearance over the white-skinned varieties. It originated in California as a 

 sport, but the type has been thoroughly fixed, retaining the greenish tint. Vines 

 are vigorous and make strong growth, producing large quantities of pods, con- 

 taining four large beans, which are thicker than the ordinary Lima, and retain 

 their color even when in the dry state. The beans cook nicely, and being thin- 

 skinned are exceedingly tender and of fine flavor. The originator, who is a 

 skillful grower, claims that the "Carpinteria" is the most perfect Lima Bean 

 ever introduced. Pkt. 5c. and 10c. pt. 20c, qt. 30c, gal. $1.00, pk. $2.00, bus.

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.
