String beans q inches long and
still growing is what one can see in
greenhouse at the horticultural de-
partment of the university. For two
days they grew at the rate OF four
inches day but at present they are
filing out instead of getting longer.
They are known as yard beans" from
the great length they attain. These
beans arc being grown by C. A. Val
lejo, senior agricultural student
from Buenos Ayres. who is taking
his major work in horticulture. The
seeds were obtained from California
and are the second generation of
seeds from Japan. The beans and
pods are edible and the object of the
experiment is to try to introduce them
into this part of the country. III
South America they grow wild but
are not used for food.
Mr. Vallejo is doing his thesis work
on beans and has a whole green house
devoted to them. He is experiment.

and thinks the time is coming when

KITCHEN coNvENlENcEs.
Some Practical Suggestions by Mary
Taylor-Ross.

There Is much in arrangement. If
the kitchen is small this takes care
of itself. but in the large kitchens it
requires some study and experience
to know just where it is best for GER
tain object to stand. Hcusekeepers
there are who place the woodbox at
the end of the stove farthest from the
firebox. Five or six steps must be
taken TO replenish the fire when, IL
the box stood at the upper end, the
wood could be placed in the stove
without step. writes Mary Taylor
Ross in the Housekeeper Then. too
many hCusekeepers bend over a stove
or sink or table that is too low for
their height. The stove can be built
up on bricks till IL is the right height,
and the table can be raised on blocks
till ii is convenient The sink is Il
more difficult matter. but If it is too
low for the housewife. and the ex-
pense of making it higher is not to be
thought CT. put the dshpan on the

of the ocean were admitted, the re-
suit would not be a sea of regular

able, however, so says the seer. great
commercial cities would spring up on
the shores of the inland sea and civil
