(&<- OUR SEEDS ABE TESTED SEEDS, OF THE VERY BEST QUALITY OBTAINABLE, BEANS (Dwarf, Bush, or String). One quart will plant from 100 to 150 feet of drill, according to size of bean. These are extremely sensitive to frost and cold, and should never be planted before May 1st. If sown earlier, the seed is liable to rot in the ground. Sow in drills two inches deep, one inch apart in the rows, rows eighteen inches apart. Stir the soil often, but only when dry, for when handled dur- ing wet weather they will rust, greatly injuring the crop. Packages of all varieties 10c. each, free by mail.

Care should be taken to keep the plants free from weeds during the season. One year old plants can be trans- planted to permanent beds thoroughly prepared beforehand by trenching two feet deep, mixing the soil thoroughly with plenty of manure, as no more can be applied after the beds are planted ex- cept by surface dressing: the soil can scarcely be made too rich. A plot of ground 20 x 50 feet , requiring 300 plants to plant the plot, will b
