Culture. —Plant as soon as danger of frost is over, placing the seeds 2 to 3 inches apart in 
drills and about 2>^ inches deep. The rows should be about 2)4 feet apart, and the soil slightly 
hilled, to insure good drainage and to keep the Beans from touching the ground. Most Beans 
should be picked when about 4 inches long. Frequent pickings insure a more prolonged bearing 
season. Avoid jerking the plant, as this frequently disturbs young feeding-roots. Use the finger¬ 
nails to sever the stems. Do not cultivate or pick when bushes are wet, as this may cause blight and 
rust For succession in the home-garden plant 30 feet of row every other week up to August i.
