GARDEN BEAN VARIETIES. 205 



is the method of Mr. Adams, described in the chapter on 

 propagation by which a whole hill is moved from under 

 cover to open ground at one operation. 



Growing Beans in the Irrigated Garden. Beans may be 

 irrigated in any of the ways described for garden practice, 

 according to the character of the soil. They will stand 

 flooding of the ground, if it is done at sundown. They will 

 also grow well on the ridge systems, either with water 

 above or below, according to the soil. Shallow planting 

 should be done when the ground is to be kept moist by 

 irrigation.
