early May and when the plants are 2 or 3 inches high, thin them out to stand 8 to 10 inches apart.

The Pole Beans do not come into bearing so quickly as the Bush varieties but 
they yield much larger crops and, if kept picked, will continue to bear for several 
weeks. As the seed is rather tender, they should not be started until about two 
weeks after it is safe to sow Bush Beans. They succeed best in a well-drained 
mellow soil which has been liberally enriched with manure. The usual practice 
is to grow them in hills placed 3 to 4 feet apart, using poles about 8 feet long to 
support the vines. Drop 6 to 10 Beans in each hill and cover 2 inches deep, 
thinning out when the plants are well started so as to leave only 3 or 4 of the 
strongest on each pole. By using string or wire as support, one stout pole may be 
made to serve several hills. 
A quart of seed will plant 100 to 150 hills; from 12 to 16 quarts will plant an acre 
according to the size of the Beans
