Pole or Cornfield Beans 
Culture. Pole beans are more sensitive to cold and wet than Dwarf varieties, hence should not be planted 
Tf° ? aldy ‘ ^se P°l es from 6 to 8 feet long in rows 4 feet apart, placing the poles 3 fest apart in the row. 
If the poles are slanted slightly to the north, the vines climb better and the pods are more easily seen. 
In home gardens 3 poles are usually placed wigwam style and tied at the top. Around each pole plant 4 to 6 
beans from 1 to 2 inches deep. When ready to run, thin to 4 plants and see that they all climb the same 
way, as .if trained wrong they will not climb. If to be planted in corn, this should be done after the corn is 
well started and has had 2 or 3 workings. An acre requires about 15 pounds of seed. One pound 
will plant 100 hills. 
EARLY WHITE HALF RUNNER. The name of this Bean is strictly in keeping with the nature of the 
plant. It is exceptionally prolific. Vines are light green, 16 to 20 inches in height and have short runners. 
Pods light green, about 5% inches in length, containing 5 to 8 Beans. Thoroughly stringless when young. 
Also excellent as a dry shell Bean ; flavor equal or better than Navy Beans.
