“SNAP BEANS” UNTIL FROST--DRY SHELL BEANS FOR WINTER 
Most home gardeners in the South neglect a splendid opportunity in late summer 
and early fall. All these pole beans reach maturity in about 50 days when planted 
during July, August and early September; bear heavily, furnishing a supply of 
“snap" beans till frost, and, if a part of the pods are left to fully mature, there is 
always an abundance of dry shelled beans for winter use. The same is true of both 
pole and bush lima beans. Be sure to plant pole beans in August and September.
