The highest type of the rust-resistant asparagus. It is earlier, larger and 
longer than the original Washington and quite as resistant. Tips are very 
tight and do not “sprangle out’ or “blow” prematurely. 
BEANS.—Dwarf or Bush.

Beans should not be planted before the ground becomes light and warm, in favorable seasons 
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.

POLE BEANS. 
Less hardy than the Bush Beans, and should be planted several weeks later, when the ground is 
warmer. Plant the seeds in slightly raised hills 3 or 4 feet apart, 4 or 5 seeds to the hill. The Limas 
are especially tender, and the rule for late outside planting with them is rigid. Painstaking cultivators, 
who are usually the most successful, plant them eye downward, after setting stout poles for every hill. 
All sorts of late-ripening Pole Beans are benefitted by pinching the tips of the vines back when they are 
about 5 feet high. A pound will plant about 100 hills.
