Schell’s 
Fancy 
Fordhook 
Bush Lima 
BUSH LIMA BEAMS 
HOW TO GROW BUSH LIMAS. Make the rows 2 feet apart and give each plant 
12 inches of space. If the soil becomes hard or crusted, keep it broken up, or your Limas 
will never come up. Do not plant Limas until the soil is warm, about May 15 in this lati¬ 
tude. Plant Lima Beans carefully, with the eye down. Two pounds will plant 150 feet 
of row; 60 pounds to the acre. 
SCHELL’S STRAIN FORDHOOK BUSH LIMA 
My Fordhook Limas are pure-bred stock, excellent quality. The Beans 
are very thick, meaty, and of delicious flavor. They are ready for use a 
week earlier than other Bush Limas and bear very heavily. The plants stand 
very erect, never prostrate or running, and are filled with many clusters of pods. 
Remember that my improved strain of Fordhooks, bred up to increased yield, 
richer flavor, and attractive green color, will mean better prices and quicker 
sales for you— quality counts more than price on any market. Pkt. 15 cts.; 
V^lh. 25 cts.; lb. 40 cts.; 2 lbs. 75 cts.; 5 lbs. $1.40; 10 lbs. $2.50; 15 lbs. 
(Vibus.) $3.45; 30 lbs. (V^bus.) $6.60; 60 lbs. (bus.) $12, prepaid. 
SCHELL’S NEW “JUMBO” FORDHOOK BUSH LIMA 
Here is a new strain of Fordhook Limas bred to a larger size, both as to 
diameter or thickness and length and breadth of the Bean. It is indeed a most 
valuable addition, not only for its very attractive and very uniform size, which 
alone is enough to make every market want it, but also for its exceptionally 
rich fresh green color, which, we believe, will make it the most observed and 
desired Lima when offered on any market. Pkt. 20 cts.; V^H). 35 cts.; lb. 
60 cts.; 2 lbs. $1.10; 5 lbs. $2; 10 lbs. $3.50; 15 lbs. $4.75; 30 lbs. (V 2 bus.)

McCREA OR BABY FORDHOOK BUSH LIMA

just about one-third the size. They are the true “potato type,” unusually 
delicious in flavor. Pods contain 3 to 5 Beans. Fine for gardeners, canners, 
and the home garden. Pkt. 10 cts.; 25 cts.; lb. 45 cts.; 2 lbs. 85 cts.;

Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Bam¬ 
berger, Lebanon Co., Pa., have had 
wonderful success with Schell’s Strain 
Fordhook Bush Limas: “They were the 
pride of the farm,” they write. “From 
8 quarts we planted (costing $3), we 
grew 345 quarts, which we sold at an 
average of 45 cts. per quart or $ 155 . 25 .”
