Culture.—Beans do best on light, warm soils, but will do well on almost any kind of soil. They do not require heavy manuring ; in fact, if the soil is fairly good it is better to use a good fertilizer such as Acme Brand B. B. P. The fertilizer should be well mixed in the furrow with the soil before the beans are planted. For field culture beans should be planted in rows two:and-a-half feet apart, and about three inches between the beans, covering the seed to a depth of about two inches. If to be cultivated by hand in small gardens, the rows may be eighteen inches apart. Up to the time of blooming, cultivate often, but never while the vines are wet, as the pods and leaves would become discolored.
