CULTURE of Pole Beans and Pole Lima Beans. — These are usually planted in hills and trained to poles, 

 which should be 8 to 10 feet long, and firmly set in the ground from VA to 4feet apart each way. Draw around 

 them a hill of earth and plant 4 to 5 Beans to each hill, 1 inch deep, always observing- to plant the eye of the 

 Bean down. The Lima Bean is very delicate, and often fails to sprout from slight causes; they should not be 

 planted until the ground is warm. Do not allow more than three to climb a pole, but ren^ve extra plants to 

 hills where less than three have sproutedi
