German, Bohne. — French, Haricot. — Spanish, Frijorenano. 
Io afford a regular succession of crops throughout the season, plant 
every two weeks, from about the beginning of May to the end of summer; 
but not until the soil becomes warm, as they are very sensitive to cold 
Plant in rows 18 inches apart, two inches deep; cultivate frequently, but 
only when dry, as the scattering of earth on the foliage or pods, when 
moist, will cause them to become damaged with rust. One quart will plant 
100 feet of drill.
