Beans—Bush, Snap 
Culture: Beans grow well in any good 
garden soil. Usually the first planting can be 
made the last week in April, followed by 
successive plantings about 2 weeks apart 
until August 15. Open a drill 2 inches deep 
and drop the Beans | inch apart and cover. 
When well up, draw the soil up against the 
plants and cultivate frequently. Do not 
cultivate them when the dew is on the 
plants as this frequently causes rust. One 
pound of seed is sufficient for 50 feet of drill. 
Bountiful. Stringless; surpasses all others in 
crisp, tender qualities and fine flavor. (47 
days.) 
Tendergreen. Round, dark green, stringless 
and tender. (50 days.) 
Wade. Round, smooth pods, plants resist- 
ant to disease. (55 days.) 
Beans—Bush, Wax 
roved Golden Wax. Rust-proof. Large, 
t, fleshy, tender pods of the finest qual- 
ity, entirely stringless. (51 days.) 
Beans—Green Pole 
Old, Homestead. (Kentucky Wonder.) Bears 
abundantly from July to frost. Large 
meaty pods, stringless and delicious. (65 
days.) 
Scarlet Runner. Excellent for its brilliant 
scarlet flowers as well as its edible qual- 
ities. Use as any other string Bean or 
shell and cook as Limas. (90 days.) 
Edible Soy, Green Giant. The quickest ma- 
turing variety. A delicious garden vege- 
table high in vitamins. (90 days.) 
Lima Beans—Bush 
Bush Limas are nearly 2 weeks earlier 
than Pole Limas. The seed is quite tender, 
and will rot while the ground is cold or wet, 
so do not plant before the ground is warm. 
For best results, however, the seed can be 
started in pots in a hotbed or in the green- 
house, and the plants set out when the 
weather is settled. Plant in rows 3 feet apart 
and from 4 to 6 inches apart in the row, al- 
ways edgewise, with the eye down. 
Baby Potato. Most outstanding Bush Lima 
to date. Exquisite flavor and prolific pro- 
duction. Matures in 72 days. 
Fordhook. Best for the home garden, very 
productive and of fine flavor. Large, round 
and plump, of rich buttery flavor. (71 
days.) 
Time shown after descriptions indi- 
cates average time to maturity. In many 
cases, picking well before these dates 
will give tastier and more tender vege- 
tables. 
Beans—Pole Limas 
Where poles can be secured, these Beans 
are more productive than the Bush varieties. 
Set poles 3 feet apart, enrich the soil in the 
hills by mixing with a liberal supply of 
fertilizer or well-rotted manure. Do not 
plant until the ground is warm. One pound 
will plant 50 poles.

Cauliflower 
Cauliflower succeeds best in new soil. For

February and March, and transplant out- 
doors about April 15. For late fall crop, sow 
outdoors the latter part of May, and trans- 
plant when plants are large enough to han- 
dle. Plants should be set at least 2 feet apart 
in the row. As soon as the “flower” has at- 
tained a diameter of 3 to 4 inches, tie the 
outer leaves together over the head in order 
to protect it from the sun, wind and rain. 
One package of seed will produce about 200 
plants, one ounce, 3000.
