POLE OR CORNFIELD BEANS 
Wood’s Improved 
Pole Iiima Bean 
Pole beans are sensitive to cold and should not be planted before the ground is warm—two 
to three weeks later than bush beans. Set poles 6 to 8 feet long, 3 to 4 feet apart, in 4-foot 
rows and plant five or six beans two inches deep around each pole. They may also be planted 
in the cornfield and allowed to run up the stalk. More troublesome to grow than bush beans, 
but they bear longer and more profusely. A pound plants 100 hills; 30 pounds to the acre.
