* CARTERS TESTED SEEDS— CHOICE VEGETABLES. 
BROAD BEANS. 
French— F& ves de Marais. 
The Cultivation of Broad Beans.— Early Mazagan and Dwarf Fan Means may be planted in November, and a second sowing made in 
February, the rows being about 15 in. apart ; to be followed by the Long-Podded and Windsor varieties to secure a succession. The later sorts 
should be about 6 in. from plant to plant, and 3 ft. from row to row. This crop succeeds best on deep rich soil in an exposed position. On light 
and dry soils it generally gels attacked by the black blight and spoils. When the points sutler from this pest it becomes imperative to pinch 
them out and burn them. 
LONGPOD VARIETIES— WHITE-SEEDED.

4<) Leviathan, Carters .— A champion Exhibition variety. We 
continue to re-select this well-known Broad Beau, the seeds being 
carefully selected from the finest pods taken from the most 
prolific plants, so that our customers may feel that they are 
growing really the very finest Broad Bean in cultivation. It 
cannot be excelled for table or exhibition. 78 First Frizes 
reported by customers in 1921. Exhibited with Carters Vegetables 
at Bournemouth. 1921, and awarded the Gold Medal. 
" In the matter of earliness and continuous bearing it certainly 
outclassed its rivals, commencing to yield pods large enough 
for cooking early in July, and it was from the same row vye 
picked our latest dish on August 10th. I feel sure a trial of this 
variety will not fail to give satisfactory returns.”— F.R.C., in 
The Gardener. ( See Photograph.)

65 Green Leviathan, Carters .— We introduced this fine Bean 
as a fitting companion to its prototype, Carters Leviathan 
( White-seeded ). When we state that this Bean carries pods of 
equally enormous proportions, and has the additional advantage 
of a beautiful green colour, its merits will be at once recognised. 
Its flavour is most mellow and delicious. The Royal Horticul- 
tural Society, reporting its trials at Wisley, says;— “Pods of 
great length, and one of the best of the long pod section; good 
crop.” Included in our Gold Medal Exhibit of Vegetables at 
Bournemouth, 1921, and 37 First Prizes awarded to our customers ; 
also included in our Exhibits at Portsmouth and Ipswich.
