Beans are tender and should not be planted until the 

 soil is well warmed. Sowing too early will often result 

 In a poor stand and uneven ripening. Sow the seed 1% 

 to 2 inches deep in rows not less than 18 inches apart 

 and firm the soil to assist germination. Allow the plants 

 to stand 4 to 10 Inches apart in the row according to 

 variety. 



Shallow cultivating and hoeing should be done fre- 

 quently until the vines begin to blossom. Disturbing the 

 roots after the blossoms are formed will cause them to 

 drop resulting In a greatly reduced crop. To prevent 

 blight do not cultivate deeply and avoid working them 

 while the vines are wet. Beans grow best in warm, 

 well-drained, sandy loam. For succession plant every 

 two weeks until about August 15th.
