LIMA BEANS 
Plant in mellow soil after danger of frost, 1 inch deep, 
4 inches apart in 3 to 3foot rows. If possible plant 
after a rain rather than before. 
Limas, especially the large seeded varieties, require a 
lot of moisture to sprout them. In planting, many 
gardeners place each bean with the eye down. In doing 
this they shove the seed into the moist soil. We believe 
a firm contact with moist soil is more important than 
the position of the bean. 
BABY POTATO: 68 days. A heavy bearing, small, 
thick lima. For further description, sec page 2. 
Pkt. 10 cts.; % lb. 20 cts.; lb. 35 cts.; 2 lbs. 60

HENDERSON BUSH: 68 days, 90 seeds per oz. lb. 
will sow 100 foot row. For home garden. Each year 
gardeners tell us that under their conditions it seems 
impossible to produce a satisfactory crop of lima 
beans of large seeded varieties. Henderson is a bush 
variety, earlier than the larger sorts and blossoms 
profusely over a much longer season In spite of un¬ 
favorable growing conditions usually a gcxxl crop is 
set. Pods 3 to 3>^ inches long containing 3 to 4 small 
beans of excellent quality. If you have had trouble 
with lima beans, we suggest you try this variety.

4^ DETROIT DARK RED: 68 days. The outstanding 
variety for produce shippers and canners; also used

ous that the beets .seem to be one solid eolor. 
Our stock has been outstanding for several years in 
field trials at the New York State Experiment Sta¬ 
tion. Many growers, producing large acreages of 
canning factory beets, find our Detroit Dark Red 
meet the requirements of the more discriminating 
canners better than other strains The quality, tex¬

breeding a more uniform Crosby. Our ideal is a flat¬ 
tened globe shape beet with a small tap root. Pkt.
