Cultivation. — Runner Beans form one of the most important and 
profitable of all garden crops grown for Summer and Autumn use, and 
yield a liberal supply of vegetables available for use after the main crop 
Peas are over. 
They are easy of culture and may be grown as screens in small gardens, 
thus serving the double purpose of covering a trellis or wall and at the 
same time yielding a crop of delicious vegetables. 
The ground should be prepared in the same manner as for other Beans, 
but Runners being somewhat tender the seed should not be sown until 
early in May. 
Sow the seed in double rows 9 inches apart and, if possible, allow 
a space of 12 feet between each doublo row, cropping the intervening 
space with other vegetables. 
For a succession make further sowings in June and July. 
When the plants aro about 9 inches high, draw the earth roam I them, 
and place tall, strong stakes to the rows, taking care to mako them very 
firm and able to withstand the wind. A good mulching of rotted manure 
during tho cropping season will lengthen tho period of bearing and give 
quality to the beans. 
Where it is impossible to procure tall stakes, it is the practice to 
take out tho leading growths when tho plants arc about a foot high, 
thus encouraging a spreading habit and in this way good crops may be 
grown and space economised. 
The best varieties both for exhibition and general purposes are 
Daniels’ Giant White and Daniels’ Giant Scarlet. 
IMPORTANT NOTICE.

Beans was practically destroyed ; only in a few instances have any been 
saved. The stocks are therefore tho shortost on rocord. We have secured 
a limited supply of our special varieties which we offer below, and should 
strongly advise early orders.
