 loamy soil at the beginning of settled, warm weather in spring, and at inter^'als for succession 

 until August. Rows may be made 2 feet apart, and the Beans planted not more than 2 inches 

 deep and several inches apart in the drills, or 3 or 4 Beans in hills 6 to 8 inches apart. Cul'ivate 

 and hoe frequently, always, however, when the vines are perfectly dry. In hoeing 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.
