planting of bush or snap Beans. Plant in drills 21/2 to 3 feet apart, spacing the seed 6 to 12 
inches apart, and plant them edgewise with the eye downwards. Cover 1 inch deep. Cultivate 
shallow and frequently until the plants blossom. Pick the pods as soon as the Beans are of

inoculate with NITRAGIN.
