(see page 52) 
Culture —Between May 1st and August 1st, sow in suc¬ 
cession for a continuous supply of edible pods. Plant in 
rows 18 inches apart, 3 to 4 inches between in the row. 
Cover 2 inches deep. Cultivate frequently, though not 
when in bloom or when the vines are wet—you may spoil 
the set or spread rust. Any good garden soil enriched with 
“5-8-7” Fertilizer will produce an abundant crop in six 
weeks after planting. Watch for Mexican Bean Beetles 
after June 15th. Red Arrow Garden Spray, or Rotenone 
Dust, carefully applied, will control them.
