Plant in a warm, loamy soil at the begin- ning of warm weather in Spring and at intervals for succes- sion until August. Rows may be made IV2 to 2 feet apart and the beans planted 2 inches deep and 3 or 4 inches apart in the rows, or 3 to 4 beans in hills 6 to 8 inches apart. Cultivate and hoe frequently, always, however, when the vines are perfectly dry working them when wet with rain or dew will cause them to rust and injure the crop. In hoe ing, draw the soil up towards the rows or plants. For String Beans gather the pods clean as soon as fit for use. The plants will remain all the longer in bearing. Two lbs. will plant 100 feet of drill—60 to 100 lbs. to the acre. NOTE—One lb. is about a pint; 2 lbs. about a quart. If wanted by mail see "Postage" second page of cover.
