Vegetable Seeds 
To Enjoy the Finest Bean Crops 
Bush Beans. After soil is warmed up plant beans in trench 114 to 2 inches deep—spacing seed 9-3 in. 
apart. One pound plants about 100 ft. row. Space rows 24 to 30 in. apart. Pick pods as soon as edible. 
For steady supply make successive plantings until August 1st or early enough to insure crop before fall 
frosts. In the variety descriptions we give the approximate number of days to reach edible stage. Do not 
pick or cultivate beans when wet. 
Lima Beans. More sensitive to cold than others, so it is late May or June before safe to plant. For green 
shell Limas you can plant up to July 10th. One pound to 100 ft. row. Place seeds edgewise, eyes down.
