GREEN BEANS, DWARF OR BUSH 
CULTURE.—1 pint of beanB will bow about 
100 feet of drill, from 1 to 1% bushels to the 
acre. Beans should not be planted in the lati¬ 
tude of Norfolk before the first of April, if one 
is disposed to take some risk, sowings may be 
made as early as the 17th of March. If a suc¬ 
cession is desired, plant at intervals of about 2 
weeks until the last of August. Prepare the 
ground well, manure lightly, and plant 1 inch 
deep, in rows 2Yz feet apart, allowing 4 to 6 
inches between green kinds, and 6 to 8 between 
the wax. Keep well cultivated, always drawing 
the earth to the plants, but avoid working the 
ground when it is wet or when dew is on the 
beans, as it is apt to cause the pods to speck.
