Cnrrie's Rnst-Proof AVax Beans. 



BEANS 



DWARF OR BUSH 



ttO poundM eqaalii 1 bunbel. 



Begin sowing Dwarf or Bush varieties the first ^veek in May, if the 

 ground is in fit condition. For successive crops sowing-; may be made 

 every two or three weeks until the 15th of July. Mature in 45 to 65 days. 

 Sow thinly in drills 2 or 3 inches deep and from IS inches to 2 feet apart. 

 If the soil Is rather poor, the former depth will suffice. If rich, the latter. 

 Never cultivate beans while the foliage is wet or covered with dew, because 

 the beanspot or anthracnose will spread very rapidly if carried on the 

 clothing or hoe, which will be a detriment to the entire crop. Beans should 

 be picked dailv in order to have them tender and stringless. One pound to 

 100 feet of drill, 2 bushels (120 lbs.) to the acre in drills.
