Dwarf or Bush Beans 
Beans are extremely tender, and it is useless to plant them before the first or middle of May, or before the 
ground has become light and warm. The best soil for Beans is a light, well-drained loam which was manured for 
a previous crop. Plant in drills 18 inches to 3 feet apart, according to the richness of the soil—the poorer the 
soil the nearer together. Sow the Beans 2 to 3 inches apart in the rows and cover about 1 inch. Hoe frequently, 
but only when dry. For succession, plant until August. 
1 lb. equals 1 full pt., 2 lbs. equals 1 full qt. 
Two pounds will plant 100 feet of drill, 90 pounds for one acre.
