DREER'S RELIABLE SEEDS 



BUSH BEANS. 



Btischbohnen, Ger. Haricot Xain, Fr. Habas b Frijolenano, Sp. 



One quart will plant one hundred feet of drill. 



TJie varieties of this class are tender, and will not bear 

 much cold. Plant about the middle of April, if the ground is 

 warm and the season favorable, and at intervals throughout the 

 season for a succession, finishing about the loth of August. 

 The best mode of culture is in rows 2 feet apart, and the beans 

 3 inches apart and 2 inches deep in the rows. Keep well hoed, 

 and draw the earth up to the stems, but only w'hen dry ; work- 

 ing them when wet w r ith rain or dew will cause them to rust 

 and injure the crop.
