ready for picking before the potatoes need their second applica- 

 tion of fertilizer. After the beans are picked, a very heavy appli- 

 cation of fertilizer is added to the potatoes at once, in turn plant- 

 ing another crop of beans between these rows, which will need no 

 other fertilizer. By carefully digging the potatoes, you will in this 

 manner give sufficient cultivation to the last crop of beans. I 

 have frequently realized as high as $2,000 per acre from this 

 accumulation of three crops.
