Culture.—Beans are somewhat tender, but it often pays to take some risks. Plant in warm, loamy soil at the beginning of 
settled warm weather in spring, and at intervals for succession until August. Rows may be made 2 feet apart, and the Beans 
planted a few inches apart in the drills, or 3 or 
4 Beans in hills 6 to 8 inches apart. Cultivate 
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.
