Cornfield Beans 
Culture. Pole beans are more sensitive 
to cold and wet than Dwarf varieties, hence 
should not be planted too early. Use poles 
from 6 to 8 feet long in rows 4 feet apart, 
placing the poles 3 feet apart in the row. 
If the poles are slanted slightly to the 
north, the vines climb better and the pods 
are more easily seen. In home gardens 
8 poles are usually placed wigwam style 
and tied at the top. Around each pole plant 
4 to 6 beans from 1 to 2 inches deep. When 
ready to run, thin to 4 plants and see that 
they all climb the same way, as if trajned 
wrong they will not climb. If to be planted 
in corn, this should be done after the corn 
is well started and has had 2 or 8 workings. 
An acre requires about 15 pounds of 
seed. One pound will plant 100 hills.
