is most prolific.

The Cultivation of Broad Beans. — Early 
Mazagan and Dwarf Fan Beans may be planted 
in November, and a second sowing made in 
February, the rows being about 1 5 inches apart , 
to be followed by the Long-Podded and IVindsor 
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.
