BEANS 



(S3o§nen) 



IWBUSH BEAN CROP LARGELY A FAILURE 



Beans should not be planted before the ground becomes light and warm, in favorable sea- 

 sons usually about the first of May. The soil should be rich and mellow, and the seeds scat- 

 tered about 3 inches apart in drills 2 to 2^ feet apart and covered about 2 inches deep. 

 Successive sowings, made at intervals of about two weeks until the middle of July, will give 

 a plentiful supply of Beans throughout the season. One quart of seed will sow 100 feet of drill.
