 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 longr, and firmly set in the ground from 3% to 4 feet 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 remove extra plants to hills where 

 less than three have sprouted.
