are not apt to attack the beans; but 

 grown in the same house, if any are on 

 the tomatoes, they will get from them 

 onto the beans and prove a source of 

 endless annoyance. The only other in- 

 sect pest that is apt to put in its ap- 

 pearance is red spider. But if the at- 

 mosphere of the house is kept moder- 

 ately moist, after the plants are well 

 advanced in growth, there is little dan- 

 ger of their getting a foothold. 



Beets we have never grown extensively 

 as a greenhouse crop, as there is not 

 enough money in them to make it profit- 

 able. They can be grown, however. A 

 bench is the most suitable place for 

 them, and a rather light soil the best. 

 A night temperature of 50 degrees is 

 high enough. They are best sown in 

 rows and thinned out to two inches 

 apart. Crosby's Egyptian is a good va- 

 riety for the purpose, as it is one of 

 the earliest and does not make a large 

 top. W. S. Croydon.

 is the one to cater to; they'll pay the

"Not long ago I was in Chicago on 

 their market and the sloppy manner in 

 which their vegetables were brought in 

 was disgusting. I was really ashamed to 

 say I was a gardener. And the prices 

 they got were in accord with the quality 

 of their stuff. You can't take too much 

 pains to have your truck right. Grow 

 the best varieties in the best way you 

 can, and then have them look their best 

 when ready to sell.

 if only fair, say so; if not good, don't 

 take it; and above all things, have one 

 price for all of them. Don't cut; if you
