CULTURE—These are much stronger 
growers than Bush Beans and require 
good, strong stakes. They give a much- 
greater yield than bush beans, but being 
more tender should never be planted be¬ 
fore May in this section. Use poles 
about eight to nine feet long and set 
firmly four feet apart each way.
