GREEN and WAX POLE BEANS 
Culture—Pole beans are more sensitive to climatic conditions than 
the bush variety, but are superior in quality and productiveness. 
When ground is warm set poles 4 to 8 feet long, slanting slightly 
to the north in rows 4 feet apart, extending north and south, the 
poles being 3 feet apart in the row, so vines can climb readily and 
pods can grow straighter and be more easily seen. Around each 
stake plant 5 to 8 beans, 1 inch deep. When well started, thin to 
4 plants. Use % pound to 100 poles; 15 to 20 pounds to the acre. 
Increase yields up to 50% by inoculating with Nitragin ‘‘D” or

MORE BEAN FACTS 
Limas or ‘‘Butter’’ Beans should be 
planted with the eye down. It is 
easier to grow Bush Limas than 
Pole Limas. They are more economi- 
cal of space and yield earlier, but 
the yield from the Pole varieties is 
better. 
Limas are a very good garden crop 
as few foods surpass their excellence 
of nutrition. When we combine the 
fact they are easy to grow, the long 
season of production ; their delicious 
flavor and their food value, we con- 
sider them a must in your garden.
