storage and use in winter. If kept cleanly cul- 
tivated they will keep in the ground almost in- 
definitely. Rich in vitamin Bl. 1 oz. sows 50 ft. 
row. 
BEAN CULTURE. Plant one week before frost 
proof date. Rows should be 144-2 ft. apart. Plant 
seeds 4 in. apart and cover 2 inches deep. Soil 
should be warm and moist for best germination. 
Cultivate often and not deeply until vines blossom, 
then stop so that roots will not be injured. Keep 
pods picked as soon as they ripen. This keeps 
them bearing over a longer period. The young 
plants are heaviest yielding, so it is best to plant 
every two weeks for beans all season. 1% lb. of
