CARTERS LEVIATHAN. 
In the matter of earliness and con- 
tinuous bearing it certainly outclassed 
its rivals, commencing to yield pods 
large enough for cooking early in 
July, and it was from the same 
row we picked our latest dish 
on August 10th. I feel sure 
a trial of this variety will 
not fail to give satisfactory 
returns. — F. R. Castle,

The Cultivation of Broad Beans. — Early Mazagan and Dwarf Fan Beans may 
he planted in November, and a second sowing made in February, the rows being 
about 15 inches apart ; to be followed by the Long-Podded and Windsor varieties to 
secure a succession. The later sorts should be about 6 inches from plant to plant, and 
3 feet from row to row. This crop succeeds best on deep rich soil in an exposed 
position. On light and dry soils it generally gets attacked by the black blight and 
spoils. When the points suffer from this pest it becomes imperative to pinch them out 
and burn them.
