POLE LIMA BEANS

period. The seed is usually planted in hills, at least 3 feet apart each way, dropping 4 to 6 Beans to the hill. 
Set poles 8 to 10 feet long in each hill to support the vines. 
A quart of seed will plant 100 hills; 20 quarts will plant one acre

One of the finest treats the garden offers is fresh, green Lima Beans. But 
remember that the seed is tender and will not grow in cold weather or wet ground. 
Wait until warm weather has surely come (the last of May is generally safe in 
this latitude), and then sow in a warm, sunny spot, preferably in a rich, mellow 
soil. Sow Bush Lima Beans in furrows about I inch deep and at least 2 feet 
apart, spacing the seeds 4 to 5 inches apart in the furrow. They will sprout 
quicker if planted with the “eyes” down. Later on the 
plants may be thinned to stand 8 to 10 inches apart as they 
yield best if given plenty of room. The Bush Limas bear 
earlier than the Pole varieties and are, therefore, more 
useful where the growing season is short. 
A quart of seed will sow ISO feet of furrow; a bushel will 
sow an acre
