WAX-POD BUSH CAUTION: Do not spray beans 
Beans Soil Preparation page 4 ! with DDT — use Marlate. 
Planting should be delayed until all danger of frost is over. Dwarfs are 
earliest and most hardy. In garden culture, beans are usually planted about 
2 inches deep in rows 20 inches apart, and 3 inches apart in the row, in 
field culture, in drill rows 20 to 30 inches apart to cultivate with tractor. 
Until blossoming season, frequent but shallow cultivation should be given. 
Deep cultivation after the plants show bloom is very apt to ruin the crop. 
Do not disturb plants when covered with dew. Two pounds will plant 100 
feet of drill, and sixty pounds is sufficient for an acre of dwarf bush types. 
To afford a regular succession of crops throughout the season, plant every 
two weeks after the first planting until midsummer.
