Pole or Running Beans 
Pole beans, although they require the support of strong 
poles or a trellis, amply repay this extra attention. It is 
a mistake to plant closer than 3 or 4 feet apart or to 
allow more than 2 or 3 beans to grow to a pole. With well 
enriched soil they outyield the dwarf varieties and pro- 
duce over a much longer season. 
EARLY LEVIATHAN LIMA A productive early variety, 
about a week earlier than other large pole limas. Pods

BEET 
Beets may be sown as early as the ground can be worked 
and may be planted in succession until the first week in 
July. They grow well in all but the most acid soil and 
provide not only tender and delicious young beets, but 
tasty greens when the young plants are cooked entire. 
Sow in 14 inch drills ¥2 to 1 inch deep and thin to 3 
inches. Use the thinned out plants for greens. Treatment 
with Phygon materially aids germination and produces a 
healthy growth. 

Early Wonder 
Treat Beet seed with PHYGON— it prevents damping off 
and insures a good stand of healthy seedlings.
