BEANS 



Culture — Begin sowing- Dwarf or Bush va- 

 rieties the first week in May, if the ground is 

 in fit condition. For successive crops sowings 

 may be made every two or tliree weeks until 

 the 15th of July. Mature in 45 to 65 days. 

 Sow thinly in drills 2 or 3 inches deep and 

 from IS inches to 2 feet apart. If the soil is 

 rather poor, the former depth will suffice. If 

 rich, the latter. Never cultivate beans while 

 tlie foliag'e is ■wet or covered with dew, be- 

 cause the beanspot or anthracnose will spread 

 very rapidly if carried on the clothinff or 

 hoe, with detrimental effect to the crop. Beans 

 should be picked daily in order to have them 

 tender and string-less. 



One pouud to 100 fcvt of drill, 2 biishel.s (120
