The Cultivation of Runner Beans.— Rufe Beans should be planted out of doors during May, followed by 
successional sowings at intervals of a fortnight ; by this means an abundant supply is pio\klcd until t u p ants are 
destroyed by the autumn frosts. Care should be taken when planting that sufficient space is allowed between the 
rows (say 3 feet), find 12 inches from plant to plant in the rows, and the plants should be well watered in dry 
weather or the flowers will drop off. If slugs are troublesome during the young stage of growth, dust over with 
soot and lime.
