Front Page. 
Beans should not be planted before the ground becomes light and warn*, in favorable seasfons 
usually about the first of May. The soil should be rich and mellow, and the seeds scattered about 3 
inches apart in drills that are to 2 to 2% feet apart, and covered about 2 inches deep. Successive 
sowings, made at intervals of about two weeks until the middle of July, will give a plentiful supply 
of beans throughout the season. One pound of seed will sow 100 feet of drill.
