This bush character is permanently established, and not two per cent, will attempt to throw up runners. Leaves of large size, healthy and vigorous, leathery and dark emerald green, showing great health and strong constitution. It is the only bush form of the large-seeded Lima, and ten times more valuable than the small-seeded sorts Its yield is quite wonderful, each bush producing 50 to 200 large pods, well filled with beans of great size, and of the true, rich, luscious Lima flavor. It is a matter of congratulation that we can now raise the true large Lima without the trouble and expense of obtaining and setting poles. It comes absolutely true from seed, and should be found in every garden now that we can offer it so cheaply. Pkt., 10c; pint., 30c.;. quart 50c. Jackson's Wonder Bush Lima—A very prolific Bush Lima, the beans being flat and beautifully speckled, of fair size and fine quality. It is probably twice as prolific as Henderson's Bush Lima, and also a greater yielder than Burpee's. Pkt., 10c.; pint, 30c; quart, 55c. Henderson's Bush Lima—This is a bush variety of the small Lima, a very rich, luscious Bean that has the ad- vantage of not requiring poles to run on, while it comes earlier into bearing. The Bush Limas are now very popular. Pkt., 5c: pint, 25c; quart, 40c. Mammoth Podded Lima—(King of the Garden.) (Pole.) The Limas have a distinct, rich, buttery flavor, very dif- ferent from all other sorts, and are much liked by most people, either to use green or dry. Used as Shel
