BUSH OR SNAP BEANS 
Plant from April till August 
Beans are sensitive to 'both cold and wet, so do not plant till the g'round is warm. To have a continuous 
supply, plant every two weeks till the middle of August; further south they may be planted even later. 
Make the rows 2 to 3 feet apart, drop the beans 3 inches apart and cover l^ to 2 inches deep. Give frequent 
but shallow cultivation up to blossoming time, not afterward, and never when the plants are wet. 1 pound 
plants 60 feet, 75 pounds plant an acre.
