Growing Hush HennS

Bush or dwarf beans are easy TO
grow and are one Of the best and most
popular of garden vegetables. A sue
cession of them should be planted and
be coming on from the very earliest
summer till after the first frosts Of
autumn. Beans Of all kinds are some
what tender and are easily killed by
late spring frosts, yet they are easily
and cheaply planted and risk should
be taken in planting extra early. If
the first crop happens to be caught by
frost, 1t Is very easy matter to plant
the same space over again and little
will be lost by the trial, as one prep
aration Of the soil will serve for a
succession Of crops.
For bush beans prepare the ground
early in a dry condition, working 1t
down to a very fine and even seed
bed. Make the surface soil especially
fine and loose, since the bean some
times has difficulty in coming up In
three or four days. Give the young
plants clean and light surface cultiva-
ton to conserve soil moisture. A
three or four-shoveled horse cultivator
may be used but never in them while
the vines are in the least wet or moist
as this win bring on disease. Plant a
succession, about three weeks apart
up to the last Of August In central lat
itudes. Pick the beans clean while
they are green regularly and the vines
will bear longer. II beans are allowed
to ripen on the vines the vines will

When IIaying Is Done.

There's a smile of relief and a spirit
of fun
Comes over the farmer when haying

With his haylofts all swelling with
sweet scented hay
His smile is as CHEEKY as sunshine in
May.
The summers half over, and out IN
the field
He sees the approach Of bountiful
yield;
AS tall az his hat is the golden topped
corn,
Which waves it's long arms in the
breeze OF the morn,
AS fair and as fragrant as gardens Of
old
Are his fields with their stubble as
yellow as gold.
With his barn full of hay and his bed
ding stacked high,
A smile on his face and CLEAN In
his eye;
The cattle provided with winter re
past,
While apples and pumpkins are ripen-

Milk Contamination.

There are a hundred and one places
where milk can be contaminated from
the time it IS drawn from the udder
till 1t reaches the table in the form of
sweet milk, cream or butter. First, a
great deal of bacteria, impurities and
disease germs get into the milk at the
barn or lot in which the cows are
kept. Second, a great many more OF
these owe their existence in milk to
the attendant and the place In which
the milk is kept. The moment the
COW shows signs of being III, or when

germs are given the human family
through milk than are given in any
other agency; and we also believe that
less attention Is paid to the care of
milk than to any other food consumed
upon the table.
