HOW TO GROW THEM.—About the first to the middle of May, plant 
four to six Beans around poles 8 to 10 feet high, setting the poles 4 feet apart

POLE ( BEANS ) Green-Podded 
IF THE BEAN BEETLE attacks your Bean 
Plants, spray with Ever Green—-it kills them 
quickly and is not poisonous. Have it on hand 
ready. Order it when you order your seeds. See it on page 75. 
HOW TO GROW THEM.—One quart will plant 150 hills; about 12 quarts to the acre. Do not think of hurrying your crop 
by too early planting or you may have a failure—the seed will rot readily if the soil is cold and wet. Wait until the soil is 
thoroughly wanned. Use 8-foot poles, placing them 4 feet apart in the rows each way. Plant five or six Beans around each 
pole; let three of the best plants stand. They may also be grown in rows and supported by 
wire or along a wire fence; plant the seed two feet apart for this method. Top-dress with 
good fertilizer or manure, working it in as you cultivate. Wizard Brand Pulverized Sheep 
Manure makes all plants hustle. We have it.

profitable for market. Good poles may be secured cheaply at any lumber-yard.
