or Freight o1S?e here and make no charge for l-.ags. 
These are more tender and require 
more care in culture than the dwarf 
varieties, and should be sown two 
weeks earlier. Set poles eight to ten 
feet long, four feet apart each way, 
and plant from four to six beans 
around each pole, eye downward. 
Thin out to three plants to e.ach pole, 
if the soil be rich. A more perfect 
growth will be effected by pmchmg off 
the ends when the plants overrun the 
tops of the poles. The Lima Beans for 
eariy use may b« grow n in frames 
and transplanted. Soil should be ef 
a sandy nature and well enriched with 
•well rotted short manure.
