“California-Grown” DISEASE-FREE BEAN SEED 
Beans supply a large amount of vitamins A, Bl, C and G. Lago improved varieties are 
selected because of their fine flavor and lack of fibre. Sow seeds in the spring as soon 
as danger of frost is past, and at two-week intervals until midsummer. A warm, well 
drained location is best. Plant bush beans 1 inch deep in rows 2 feet apart and seed 
4 to 6 inches apart in the rows. 
Plant Pole Beans in hills 12 to 18 inches apart and in rows 4 feet apart. Plant 3 to 4 
beans per hill.
