Grown mostly as dried beans for winter use; the pods of Dwarf and French Horticultural may be used, when 
young, as snap beans. The culture is similar to that recommended for bush beans on page 10, but shell beans 
should be left on the plants until the pods are matured. The bushes are then cut, allowed to dry, and the beans 
threshed and thoroughly dried out before they are put away for later use. One pkt. will sow about 25 ft. of row; 
one lb, 150 ft. of row. Many varieties of pole beans, listed on page 13, are also desirable as shell beans.
