Soy Beans, Edible 
KABOTT—A new, extra early variety 
that will mature even in those sections 
with short seasons. Fine quality. This 
new variety insures full ripening of the 
seed in the Pacific Northwest. After test- 
ing several of the earlier varieties, we 
consider this the best for the Pacific 
Northwest states or any of the Northern 
states where earliness is an important 
factor. Postpaid. Pkt. 10c; 12 Ib. 30ce; 
Ib. 50c. 
Pole Limas 
CHRISTMAS LIMA (See cut)—This 
unusual new pole lima excels any variety 
we have ever tested for quality and pro- 
duction. When cooked in either dry or 
green shell stage the seed turns to a pink- 
brown color and the stripe disappears. 
In the shell stage they are sweet as 
though they had been sugared lightly. 
In either dry or shell stage the skin is 
thin and tender. We have tested many 
lima varieties but none equals this for 
high quality and production, so we be- 
lieve it is the best for our Pacific North- 
west states when cool summer nights 
usually prevail during the growing sea- 
son. The seed are very flat but quite 
large and every seed is striped with deep 
crimson as shown in the illustration. 
Vigorous vines 7 to 9 feet tall, foliage 
rather thin and of medium size. Pods 
5 to 5% inches long and about one inch 
wide, usually carrying 3 beans to the pod. 
We urge our home garden customers to 
buy this grand lima. Commercial garden- 
ers who contact their customers at road- 
side stands or public markets should 
introduce it to their trade. Pkt. 15c; 
Y% lb. 35ce; Ib. 60c. Postpaid. 
KING OF THE GARDEN—A large, flat 
lima of great vigor and heavy production. 
Seed white in dry stage but creamy 
green in shell condition. This variety 
also produces well in the Pacific North- 
west. A splendid sort for canning or 
freezing. Vines 7 to 9 feet, pods 5% to 6 
inches long with 4 to 5 thick, flat seeds. 
*OREGON LIMA (White Seeded Run- 
ner)—A large pole lima, extra early and 
suited for Northwest culture. It is accli- 
mated and matures ripe pods 75 days 
from planting. Excellent used as a butter 
bean or stored dry for winter use. Large, 
pure white seed. In milder climates it 
often lives through the winter and pro- 
duces a crop the second season. 
Broad Windsor 
MAMMOTH LONG PODDED — The 
English Broad Beans or sometimes called

well in northern climates. Often called

Pea.” Dwarf bushy plants, about one 
foot high, with round, puffy pods con- 
taining 2 to 3 large seeds. These are 
used when ripe much like beans for
