Drop 6 corn kernels _Corn_ {a little distance apart into the hole. Cover with {about an inch of soil. Shallow cultivation helps. {Buy one package “Stabler’s Early” for early {corn; one package “Stowell’s Evergreen” for {later crops. { _Lima Beans._ Buy “Bush Limas,” because it {will not be necessary to set poles for them to {climb upon. Wood ashes mixed with the soil _Beans_ {helps them grow. They do not like damp, heavy {soil. Do not plant before warm weather, because 2 inches deep, 6 {beans are tender.

The simplest support is 3 feet apart {a stake driven down near them, to which the {stems are tied as they grow.
