Pole or Running Beans. 



Haricots a Rames. Frijole de Bejuco. 5tancjcn=Bobncu. 

 Cut/tuke.— Sow as the soil becomes warm and dry, from the first part of May (for all except Limas) to 

 the latter part of May, in hills four feet apart each way. Limas should not be 

 planted until warm weather has fairly set in. One quart of Limas will plant about 

 100 hills, allowing four or five beans to a hill, and of the smaller sorts about 200 

 hills. Poles, eight or ten feet long, should be firmly set in the center of the hills 

 before putting in the seed.

Bourrache. Borraja. Borretd?. 



The young leaves of this annual, which smell somewhat like a Cucumber, are used as salad, or boiled like 

 Spinach. Should be sown at intervals, as the leaves are palatable only when young. Sow in the spring, in 

 light soil, and transplant in shallow drills, a foot apart, when of about six weeks' growth.
