CuLTURE: Same as Lima Beans. 
Since the recent introduction of edible Soybeans their 
well-deserved popularity has increased steadily. Soy- 
beans are delicious when eaten green or dry. Of great 
importance ts their high food content. They are an ex- 
cellent source of Vitamins A, B, and G, not to mention 
the extremely high protein content. Soybeans are pro- 
lific and very resistant to both disease and insects.

shelled use. For Dried Beans, allow 30 days longer.
