To Plant Too Early Causes Failures 
BEANS 
CULTURE. 
Beans require a light friable soil, with plenty of moisture, and they are sensative to front. They 
should not be sown earlier than April. In the garden the soil should be made mellow and rich, and 
all pole varieties should be provided with poles or a trellis on which to climb. For a garden crop 
plant string beans in a succession every four weeks throughout the season, sow in rows 18 inches 
to 24 inches apart and cover them from one to two inches deep but not more. Keep the pods picked 
and the vines well watered and the beans will continue bearing much longer than if vines are 
allowed to become dry.
