Hastings' Best 4 Bush Lima Beans, 30c, Postpaid 
There ought to be more lima or “butter beans’’ grown in the South, and with the bush varieties it is as easy to grow them as it is 
to plant and grow the ordinary bush snap beans. To encourage a more general planting of these fine bush lima beans in the South 
we are offering one packet each of the four very best lima beans for the Southern garden. For a good many years we offered Hast- 
ings’ “Best Three Bush Limas” and have sold many thousands of these collections. Now, we are adding another to the collection, 
giving one packet each of Henderson Bush Lima, the most prolific white lima; Jackson Wonder, the almost drought-proof; Fordhook, 
the best of the large seeded limas, and Burpee New Improved Bush Lima, a great improvement over the old variety. Take advantage 
of this exceptional offer in your order this year. You will be more than pleased. Hastings’ Lima Bean Collection, 30 cents; postpaid. 
PLANT LIMA BEANS THIS SPRI 
In many respects lima beans are more desirable than the others both for use in the green 
stage and as dry beans. Up to a few years ago there were tens of thousands of people who 
wanted to grow lima beans but held back on account of the trouble to get poles for them to 
run on. This was before the days of the bush forms. 
First came the Henderson and the Jackson Wonder, bush forms of the small seeded or sieva 
type of lima. These were folloAved a year or two later with the Burpee Bush Lima, a bush 
form of the large lima. Following this came bush forms of several of the thick seeded limas, 
the best of which is the Fordhook Bush Lima listed below. You can now get a bush form of 
almost any lima type and you can grow them in your garden as easily as “snap” beans.
