Dwarf or Bush Beans 
2 Lbs. per 100 Feet; 90 Lbs. per Acre 
Culture—Plant when the ground is warm, 
as Beans are very sensitive to cold and wet 
weather. Sow in well prepared soil, in 
rows 2 to 21/2 ft. apart, covering the seed 
11/2 to 2 ins. deep, and thin the plants to 
stand about 2 to 3 ins. apart in the rows. 
Give frequent but shallow cultivation till 
blossoming time, but only when the plants 
are dry. If cultivated when wet, they will 
be damaged by rust. For a constant sup- 
ply of fresh beans sow every 2 weeks up 
to August 1st.
