 Kumerle type. The plant is vigorous and erect growing, bearing well 

 about the ground. The pods are produced in large clusters, each con- 

 taining three to five large beans of exceptionally fine quality. Much 

 more productive than Kumerle and matures earlier. 5Ve consider this a 

 decided acquisition to the dwarf Lima, possibly the best of the class.

 Bush Lima by fully one-third. This greater yield is due to the increased

 generally show a greenish-white coloring, while dried beans of the Burpee 

 Bush Lima, like those of the Large Pole Lima, are pure white. Pint,

 immense yi'elder, each bush bearing 50 to 200 handsome, large pods, 

 well filled. Pint, 30e. Quart, 60c. Peck, $4.00. Bushel, $15.00.
