POLE BEANS 
Pole Beans are extremely productive. They come into bearing later than the Bush varieties, 
but bear for a longer period, and some produce bigger pods. They are less hardy, however, 
sc> should be planted a week later. They mature in from 65 to 75 days. Sow seed when 
the weather has warmed up, about the second week of May in vicinity of Philadelphia, 
and not later than June 15. Set poles 4 ft. apart and place 8 to 10 beans around each pole; 
1 lb. of seed for 125 poles. When plants are well established, thin to 2 or 3 plants to a pole; 
or the seed may be planted along a trellis, sowing 300 ft. of row with 1 lb. of seed.
