‘jr INDEX ON FINAL PAGES 

[_IMAS should be planted a little later than the 
other bush Beans, in the most favorable loca- 
tion possible, as they are very late in maturing. 
Always plant with the eye down. The Bush Lima is 
more easily grown than the tall, and is earlier and 
more economical of space but the pole limas yield 
better.
