The illustration of the open pod, taken by permission from The Rural New Yorker of Oc- tober 19, 1889, shows the natural size of the beans and pods. While the beans are small (being of the Sieva or Sewee type, known in the South as " butter-beans'"), yet they are ready for the table earlier than the Large Lima, and the little pods, growing in clusters, are plentiful. The compact, dwarf bushes are of hardy growth and very prolific, bearing continuously until the end of the season. Wholesale, $ per bushel. KUMERLE, THORBURN'S, OR DREER'S BUSH LIMA.

A natural-size pod is shown above; neither pods nor beans are nearly so large as Burpee's Bush Lima, while they are also late in maturing. Wholesale, $ per bushel. JACKSON WONDER DWARF LIMA.
