Kiing of the Garden 



Beans — Pole or Running 



One quart to 150 hills; 10 to 12 qts. to the acre in drills. 



These are more tender and require rather more care in 

 culture than the Bush Beans, and should be sown two weeks 

 later. They succeed best in sandy loams, which should be 

 liberally enriched with short manure in the hills, which are 

 formed, according to the variety, from 3 to 4 feet apart. From 

 5 to 6 seeds are planted in each hill, about 2 inches deep. 

 As the matured Bean is used mostly, the season is too short 

 for succession crops in the North, though it is advantageous 

 to plant succession crops in the Southern States, where the 

 season of growth is often from March to November. Rough 

 cedar or similar poles about 7 or 8 feet high should be 

 used for Lima Beans to climb on. They should be set in 

 the ground at least IS inches, so as to prevent being 

 blown over.

Lazy Wife 



LEVIATHAN. — The earliest Pole Lima grown. The plant 

 is strong and takes to the poles more readily than any other 

 sort. It is fully a week earlier than any other Pole variety, 

 therefore can be grown successfully where other sorts would 

 be caught by frosts of early autumn. Moreover it is a prodi- 

 gious cropper, producing its pods in large clusters from base 

 to top of pole, frequently from 5 to 10 together. Pt. 30c; 

 qt. 45c; pk. $2.50; bu. $9.00.
