GROW PLENTY Beans like a dry and rather light soil, though they 
nsC DCAMC well in any garden soil if not planted too 
tJr BtANo early in the spring. Planting should be delayed until 
all danger of frost is over. Dwarfs are earliest and 
most hardy as a general rule. In garden culture, beans are usually 
planted about 2 inches deep, in rows 18 inches apart, and 3 inches apart 
in the row; in field culture, in drills 2 to 3 feet apart so as to cultivate 
with horse one way. Until blossoming season, frequent but shallow cul¬ 
tivation should be given. Deep cultivation after the plants show bloom 
is very apt to ruin the crop. Two pounds wiil plant 100 feet of drill, 
and sixty pounds is sufficient for an acre. 
Running beans, especially the Limas, are more tender than the 
Dwarfs; therefore, planting must be delayed still later, or until liability 
to rot in consequence of cold, damp weather has passed. Plant five or 
six beans in each hill, about 2 inches deep, hills 3 feet apart each way. 
Two pounds of seed will be sufficient for 100 hills of Limas, or 30 to 
50 pounds of Dimas per acre when drilled. 
To afford a regular succession of crops throughout the season, plant 
every' two weeks after the first planting until midsummer.
