Ford's MammOtll Podded Lima. This grand Lima Bean is the 

 result of over twenty years' selection by James Ford, one 

 of the oldest and most successful market gardeners around 

 Philadelphia. In mammoth size, great productiveness 

 and fine quality it far surpasses even such varieties as the 

 King of the Garden, Salem Improved and other fine sorts. 

 The pods grow to an average length of eight inches, and 

 are produced in great clusters, with from five to seven 

 beans per pod, of most excellent quality, for using either 

 green or dry. The vines grow vigorously, setting the 

 beans early at the bottom of the pole, and continue in 

 bearing right up to frost. Ford's Mammoth Podded is 

 without exception the largest podded, finest flavored and 

 most productive of all Lima Beans. Pt., 15 cts; qt., 25
