BEAN S — Runner. 
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 arc 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 bo 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 double row, cropping the intervening space 
with other vegetables. 
For a succession make further sowings in June and July. 
When the plants are about 9 inches high, draw the earth round them, 
and place tall, strong stakes to the rows, taking care to make them very 
firm and ablo to withstand the wind. A good mulching of rotted manure 
during the cropping season will lengthen the period of bearing and give 
quality to the beans. 
Where it is impossible to procure tall stakes, it is the practice to take 
out the. leading growths when the plants are about a foot high, thus en- 
couraging 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.
