Fordhook Bush Lima 
77 The New Bush Lima That Is Different 
and Has Real Merit 77 
By weight, larger percentage of Beans and less percentage 
of pods than other large-seeded Limas. 
Unusually sweet flavor, different from any other Lima. 
Very prolific—pods in a crown setting with three to five 
Beans in a pod. 
An ideal home-garden Lima. 
On account of the flavor and green tint when cooked, we 
believe this new Lima will be a popular market gardener’s 
variety even though the pods are small. 
Dry Beans, when cooked, sw r ell to same size as 
the green Beans, retaining the sweet flavor, thus 
being an exceptionally fine dry Lima for winter use.- 
Tested and proved by canners, resulting in a 
sample “pack” of real merit. The large plump 
Bean, tender, thin-skinned, of very sweet flavor, re¬ 
tains the green color and does not break up in the 
can. A Bean that canners have wanted for years.

known is very similar to Cauliflower and is called Cauliflower- 
Broccoli. Mammoth White is the most popular of this type. The 
other type is called Sprouting Broccoli; the stems and flower 
buds are eaten and it is cooked and served much as Asparagus.

cultivated and used in the same way. Heads of large size, creamy-white; 
delicate flavor. Pkt., 10c; 3 pkts., 25c; oz., 40c; *4 lb., $1.25; lb., $4.25,

Simply sow the seed in the open ground in the spring and transplant the 
plants when large enough. The heads or sprouts when ready to use are deep 
green. After the central head is removed, the plant produces numerous branch 
heads which are fully as desirable as the first head produced. A continuous 
supply may be had for a long time from a few plants. Pkt., 10c; 3 pkts.,
