THE BEST 
Pole Lima Beans 
NEW JERSEY OROWN SEED. MUCH 
SUPERIOR TO CALIFORNIA GROWN 
FORD’S HAMMOTH PODDED POLE 
LIMA BEAN 
This Lima Bean is the result of over twenty 
years’ selection by the late Jas. Ford, who was 
one of the oldest market gardeners around Phila¬ 
delphia. The pods grow to an average length 
of 8 inches, are produced in great clusters, with 
from five to seven beans per pod, of most excel¬ 
lent quality for using either green or dry. The 
vines grow vigorously, setting the beans early at 
the bottom of the pole, and continue in bearing 
right up to frost. Ford’s Mammoth Podded 
is, without exception, the largest podded, 
finest flavored and most productive of all 
Pole Lima Beans. Pkt., ioc.; pt., 30c.; qt., 
55c., postpaid; by freight or express, pt., 20c.; 
qt., 40c.; 2 qts., 70c.; peck, $1.90; bush., $7.25. 
SHOTWELL’S IHPROVED THICK 
POLE LIMA BEAN 
Originated by one of the best and most ex¬ 
perienced growers of Northern New Jersey. It 
is of the thick or Potato Lima class, but will be 
found a decided improvement on the Dreer's 
Improved Pole Lima or any other bean of its 
class in earliness, productiveness and fine quality. 
All claims made for it have been fully substanti¬ 
ated by hundreds of our customers who tried it 
in past seasons, and we regret w'e have not room 
here to publish the many strong recommenda¬ 
tions received from them. Pkt., ioc.; pt., 30c.; 
qt., 55c., postpaid; by freight or express, qt., 40c.; peck, $2.00; bush., $7-75- 
Henderson’s Early Leviathan Pole Lima 
One week earlier than any other Pole Lima. Immense size. Wonderfully productive 
This new variety is at least one week earlier than any large Pole Lima 
yet offered, and two weeks earlier than most varieties. Earliness often 
means the sacrifice of other valuable features, but in this variety the good 
features of the later sorts are retained. It is wonderfully productive, the 
pods and beans immense and the flavor delicious. Price, pkt., ioc.; pint, 
30c.; qt., 55c., postpaid; by express, qt., 40c.; peck, $2.00; bush., $7.50.
