No effort put forth in the garden will bring more pleasure and satisfaction than an established Asparagus bed, if this 

 is thoroughly prepared according to the following directions. A bed 20 by 50 feel set with 1,000 two-year-old roots will 

 last for years and furnish an abundance: 



Directions. Select a good sandy loam, plow the ground as deep as possible, dig out 12 inches deep, put in a 

 layer of 4 inches of food, strong stable manure, and press down; then fill in with good, rich, black loam to the top 

 of the bed; sow on the top of the bed 100 lbs. of Kainit to 1,000 square feet of bed; incorporate this thoroughly to 

 depth of 3 inches. After leveling bed off even, stretch a line the length of bed 9 inches from the edge, and with a 

 spade cut a furrow 8 inches deep, set a row of plants along the trench 9 inches apart, with the crowns of the roots 

 2 inches below the surface, then cover up, make even and plant other rows 9 inches apart.

Culture. Beans are somewhat tender, but it often pays to take some risk. Plant in warm, loamy soil at the beginning of settled, warm weather in Spring, 

 and at intervals for succession until August. Bows may be made 2 feet apart, and the Beans planted not more than 2 inches deep and several inches apart in 

 t he drills, or 3 or 4 Beans in hills 6 to 8 inches apart. Cultivate and hoe frequently, always, however, when the vines are perfectly dry. In hoeing draw the 

 g oil up towards the rows or plants. For String Beans gather the pods clean as fit for use. The plants will remain all the longer in bearing.
