HOME VEGETABLE GARDENING 



BEANS, DWARF OR BUSH 



T3EANS grow in any soil and everybody can grow them. 

 *-* They are distinctly a "warm weather" vegetable 

 and should not be sown outdoors until the maple trees 

 develop leaves. They have no insect enemies of any 

 consequence and are one of the easiest vegetables to grow 

 and harvest if the simple points mentioned on pages 49-58 

 are observed. Bush beans mature in from fifty to eighty- 

 five days from date of sowing seeds. 



BEANS, POLE OR CLIMBING 



nPHESE are equally as tender as the bush beans and 

 J- should not be planted until the weather is quite 

 settled and the soil is warm. All pole beans,bear later 

 than thevdwarf sorts, but are also more prolific. They 

 require mote labor because poles must be provided and 

 vines should\be tied up, but they bear longer and the 

 pods are easier* to gather. For full directions see pages 

 59-62.
