BUSH BEANS 
Culture —1 Ib. of seed will sow 60 feet of row ; 60 lbs. will plant one acre. Begin planting in this 
section about the middle of March and make successive plantings three or four weeks apart up to 
September 1st. This will give green Beans all through the season. Keep young Beans picked—do not 
let them go to seed ; it will prolong the bearing season of the plants. 
Sow in drills 2 to 3 feet apart, dropping a Bean every 3 to 4 inches, cover about 1 inch, plant in 
good, loamy soil, avoid heavy clay or cold places, cultivate often until vines begin to bloom, then 
discontinue working the plants to avoid disturbing the shallow top roots. Never cultivate or work 
while the soil is heavy or wet. Dust or spray plants when 10 inches high, to prevent the Mexican 
Bean Beetle, with Slug Shot or Garden Guard, both of which are non-poisonous or harmless to human 
beings and animals, but are death to most all insects. 
“Inoculate your Bean seed before planting; the trial size Nitragin only costs a dime. The use of 
Nitragin increases the crop, and hastens the growth. You will be well pleased with the results of 
Nitragin treatment.”
