One pkt. plants 30 ft. of row; 1 lb., 100 ft. 
Beans should not be planted until the weather is settled and the ground is 
warm. Earlier plantings are generally a waste of time and seed. Space the rows 
11% to 2 feet apart, and the seed 2 inches apart and 1 inch deep. Pole Beans are 
planted in hills 3 feet apart, 4 to 6 Beans in a hill. Keep them hoed, and dust 
with rotenone to ward off the Mexican Bean beetle. Make several sowings so 
as to supply your table all season. Pick the Beans frequently. 
GREEN-PODDED BUSH BEANS 
Black Valentine (Stringless). 50 days. Round, dark green pods, shaped 
like a pencil, with black seeds. Thick, meaty, and of good flavor. 
Plant very hardy and a good producer. 
Bountiful. 47 days. Long, flat, light green pods of delicious flavor. It 
is well named, for the plant is a bountiful producer early in the sea- 
son. We cannot recommend this too highly for both home and 
market gardens. 
Burpee’s Stringless. 50 days. Handsome pods, nearly round, slightly 
curved at tip, 514 inches Iong, borne prolifically on healthy plants. 
Dependable under all soil and climate conditions.

Bean when young or as a shell Bean. Pods are long, semi-round, 
light green becoming splashed with carmine at maturity. Popular 
in New England. 
French’s Horticultural. 68 days. Pods Ionger than those of Dwarf 
Horticultural, splashed with crimson. Compact in growth, with a 
tendency to throw short runners. Fine for green shell Beans.
