seed. Lb. 45c; 15 Ibs. $4.00; 60 Ibs. $14,00. Fordhook 242 Bush Lima. 

Culture. One half pound of small bush or one pound of large bush Lima Beans will plant a row 100 feet long; 30 
pounds of the small, or 60 pounds of the large will plant an acre. Lima Beans are not as hardy as Snap Beans and should 
not be planted as early. Plant as soon as the ground is warm in rows 3 feet apart, 1 inch deep, dropping 3 or 4 
beans every 8 or 10 inches. Cultivate the same as 
Snap Beans. PLEASE DO NOT ORDER LESS THAN ONE 
POUND OF ANY VARIETY OF BEANS
