VEGETABLE SEEDS 
ASPARAGUS 
This is a vegetable which takes several years to develop to the producing 
stage. Seeds should be sown in early Spring about 2 inches apart and trans- 
planted the following Spring to a permanent location. Plants should be set, in 
rich or well manured soil, about 18 in. apart and with the crown about 6 in. 
below the surface. An ounce of seeds should produce about 400 plants. We 
usually have one and two year old plants for sale in April.

BEANS 
Beans is a vegetable every garden should contain, both for use direct from 
the garden and also for canning or freezing. Easy to grow in almost any kind 
of soil if not too shady. Easiest method to plant the Bush varieties is to drop 2 
or 3 seeds in about an inch deep hole and about a foot between each hill. '/4 lb. 
should plant about 80 hills. Another way is to plant the beans in rows 2 ft. apart 
and about 3 in. between each seed. The Pole Beans can be planted 5 or 6 seeds 
around a 6 to 7 ft. pole and with the poles at least 2 ft. apart. Earliest seeding 
when danger of frost has passed or first half of May, and latest seeding about 
August Ist for green beans.
