PRACTICAL GARDENING 



FIG. 47. Pressing the soil down with the back of the 

 rake will aid germination. 



thorough cultivation will be evidenced in a 

 heavy yield of larger brittle pods. Do not 

 cultivate when the dew is on the vines. If the 

 vines are moist and the rake, hoe or other im- 

 plements brush against them the plant may 

 then be affected by bean canker (Anthrac- 

 nose). 



The Dwarf Golden Wax Rust Proof is one 

 of the best.
