Pole Lima Beans 
FRENCH HORTICULTURAL. Selected Strain. Crop failed. 
Pole Limas require some support for the 
vines to climb on. Poles 6 to 7 feet long an¬ 
swer very well, but if not available a neat 
and cheap trellis can be made by placing a 
strong post at each end of the row and run¬ 
ning a strong fence wire at top and bottom. 
Strings are then run from one wire to the 
other without tying or cutting, thus forming 
a support for the vines. The wire should be 
drawn tight and the end posts braced in some 
way. Plant 2 to 3 seeds in a place about a 
foot apart. 
IDEAL. Mammoth Podded Pole Lima. 
We consider this so superior to other pole 
limas that we have discontinued listing 
any other kind. The pods are immense, 
often 7 inches long and contain 6 large 
beans of the very finest quality. In fact, 
this variety is so superior in quality and 
yield to any other lima, that you should 
plan to plant as much as you possibly 
have room for. The vines are very vigor¬ 
ous and prolific and the beans mature only 
about one week later than the bush limas. 
Our strain is very fine, producing large pods

Lima Beans —Dwarf or Bush 
A pound of seed will plant about 150 feet of row, a packet 20 feet. Sow about 60 lbs. per acre. 
Bush Limas are more easily raised than the pole varieties rich. Do not plant these beans until the soil is warm and dry 
but do not yield as much. These beans seem to bear better as the seed is apt to rot. Plant the seed in rows 3 feet apart 
on heavy clay soil than on sand. The land should not be too and drop two or three in a place a foot to 18 inches apart. 
FORDHOOK. The Best Dwarf Lima. This is the earliest 
and best of the large podded dwarf limas. The pods are of 
good size and filled with four to five plump thick beans. 
The beans are light green in color and of the finest quality. 
The vines grow upright and are extremely vigorous and 
productive. This is the best dwarf variety for the home 
garden and those who prefer the thick “potato” Limas will 
find this strain far superior to any other. It is the most 
popular and profitable variety to raise for market. 
Pkt. 10c; 1/2 Lb. 25c; Lb. 45c; 2 Lbs. 80c; 7i/ 2 Lbs. $2.40

BURPEE’S IMPROVED BUSH LIMA. This strain of Bur¬ 
pee’s Bush Lima has beans of larger size and deeper green 
color than the old strain and the vines are more true to the 
bush form.

Burpee’s Bush Lima, WONDER STRAIN. This improved 
strain bears larger crops and is earlier than the old, original

Henderson’s Bush Lima. Very early and prolific. The 
pods are not large but are produced in great abundance on 
upstanding vines. These “Baby Limas” have a delightful 
quality and are preferred by many people. Our stock is 
true and high yielding.

Although not always necessary most of these varieties do best if given some support for the vines. 
Kentucky Wonder Wax. Like the Kentucky Wonder ex¬ 
cept that the pods are yellow instead of green. This is 
the best pole bean with wax or yellow pods we know. It 
is early, very prolific, and the pods are long, bright yel¬ 
low, perfectly stringless when young, and of fine quality.
