KITCHEN VEGETABLES. 



Of planting and earthing up Beans. 



BEANS may yet be planted for late crops. Those fit- 

 test for the early are also fittest for the latest crops. 

 Plant for a succession to those planted in May, of 

 the Windsor or long-pod kinds, in an open situation, 

 about the beginning, and of the Mazagan or Lisbon 

 sorts, for the latest plantation, in a more sheltered 

 spot, at the end of the month. Hoe, and earth up 

 the advancing crops that need, and top, if not done 

 as directed last month, the early ones. 



Of thinning the Crops of Beet. 

 The crbp of beet will now require to be finally 

 thinned out, if not done as directed last month ; 

 which see. They will henceforth require little fur- 

 ther care than being kept clean of weeds ; observ- 

 ing to pull out such as shoot for seed, as these are 

 useless, and considerably exhaust the ground. In 

 hoeing among beets at any time, be careful not to 

 wound the roots, as in that case they would bleed 

 much, and probably canker in consequence.
