POLE, OR RUNNING BEANS 
Sow from the 1st of May (for all except Limas) to the latter 
part of May, in hills 4 feet each way. Limas should not be planted 
until warm weather has fairly set in. One quart of Limas will plant 
about 100 hills, allowing four or five beans to a hill, and of the 
smaller sorts about 200 hills. Poles 8 to 10 feet long should be 
firmly set in the hills before planting seed. Set poles 4 feet apart 
each way, and plant 4 to 6 beans about 1 inch deep around each 
pole. Thin out to three plants to a pole if the soil is rich; pinch 
off the ends of plants when they overrun the top of the poles, to 
effect more perfect growth below.
