No garden should be without one of the following 
varieties of Dwarf Limas. We cannot recommend them too highly. They are two weeks earlier than the 
Pole Limas, much easier to raise, as no poles or strings are required. Their flavor, however, is not as ap- 
petizing as the old-fashioned Pole Lima. 
Plant in drills 30 to 35 inches apart, dropping the beans 4 to 5 
inches apart. If too thick, they will not do well. Do not plant in cold ground as they are liable to rot. 
If possible plant Lima Beans with eyes down. 
Deeply rooted plants continue to grow after others stop.

and contain 3 or 4 beans—maturing for the table 
about 10 days earlier than the earliest Pole Lima.
