CULTURE. — For an early crop, a sowing should be made of Mazagan in Ofctober or Ifovember on well drained 
foil. The main crop should be sown in February, and others to follow up to the end of May. Sow in drills, about 
2ijiche» deep, the beans to be 3 inches apart, and the drills 2 to 3 feet apart. The ground dug and well manured. To 
ensure well-filled pods it is a good plan to pinch off the leading tops as soon as the lower pods begin to set.

RUNNER OR CLIMBING BEANS. 
(Phaseolus multijlorm.) Leguminosje. 
CULTURE. — It is a common mistake to plant these too early. Sowings may be made in April, under glass, 
and the plants put out about the middle of May where they are to stand. If, however, thev are to be sotvn in the open 
ground, do not put them in until the first week in May and again in June and July. ’This is the vegetable for a 
hot and dry season. When thickly mulched and watered they will bear heavily, and deserve all the labour of 
watering afforded them. They .should be occasionally topped, to induce side growth, and if possible stakes or 
supports of some kind should be used as it allows of much liner growth and increased production of pod,s.
