Aug. 26th, 1936. 
From 2 bu. of Sterling Fordhook Bush Limas that I planted early, I shipped 
350 bags of nice beans which sold for $1.75 to $2.00 per bag. 
Had a few light spots in the field or I would have picked at least 450 bags. 
I never saw Limas yield so well.

I planted 4 acres of Sterling Lima Beans after hay and shipped enough beans 
to bring home over $2,000.00. They yielded well and sold for top prices.
