ed industry, requiring more SKILL II
not more intelligence, on the part of
those engaged in it than any other
line Of agriculture save, perhaps, the
dairy business and experience here
has been that the two may be operat-
ed together most successfully, the
dairy cattle furnishing manure for
building up the soils most ecOnomi-
cally and giving a market not only
for the surplus truck crops them
selves, but for restorative crops that
should follow them Trucking is at
once capable Of earning large profits
for the successful individual or Of
causing equally as large losses to the
unsuccessful, and the best Of its fol-
lowers are not exempt from frequent
failures with a single crop. Except
in rare instances the truck grower
has to produce extremely perishable
crops for limited markets in cOmpetl-
ton with a vast territory on all sides,
and unless conditions beyond his con
troll, such as are determined by the
soil, climate, and transportation facili-
ties are suitable, he cannot hope to
succeed except at a great disadvan-
tage Under the most favorable cir
cumstances it Will require know1-
edge Of soils and fertilizers, of con-
trolling insect pests and fungOus dis
eases, and of the intricate matter Of
packing and distributing the pro-
ducts, that the producer of staple
crops can only acquire by experience,
and the writer believes it best to be-
gin such work gradually. In fact, a
practical understanding Of all the
sciences underlying agriculture in its
brOadest sense would hardly suffice to
make one proficient in this work with
Out the knowledge that comes with
experience in growing and marketing
such crops.
The bush or snap bean is perhaps
the easiest Of all truck crops to grow
and there is about as little experience
necessary on the part Of the producer
They do not require so rich a soil
as do the most Of the other truck
crops, though they respond we'll to
good fertilization. Being easy to
plant, cultivate, and prepare for mar
ket, and requiring a minimum Of ex-
pense for seed and fertilizer, they are
an especially good crop for the be-
ginner, and experience here has been
that they are about as reliable as any
for net returns.
The Florida agriculturist., 1910-05-01
Cultivation.

After the beans are planted care
should be taken to prevent hard
crust forming over them in case of
heavy rains before the young plants
show above the ground. When
such a thing happens it is necessary
that light harrow or weeder be run
over the ground to break this crust
After the beans are up the cult
vatiOn should be level and shallow
and frequent enough to keep down
weeds and grass and maintain a
dust mulch. There is really slight
difference between the cultivation of
this crop and that of corn or cotton
The Florida agriculturist., 1910-05-01

Care should be taken not to cultivate
beans while the vines are wet from
rain or dew, as this will cause dirt
to stick to the leaves and they will
have tendency to develop disease.
Gathering.
The standard varieties of snap
beans are ready to pick in from fifty
to sixty days after planting. AS stated
before the wax bean has larger pods
and is easier to pick than the round
green bean. When ready to gather a
lot Of extra labor, consisting of men,
women and children are usually put
in the field after the dew has dried
off, each with a picking basket holding
One-half bushel. AS fast as these
baskets are filled the beans should
be poured into the hampers in which
they are shipped and removed to the
shade A good hand should pick ten
bushels or more a day. Only the
we'll developed pods should be picked
and these should be tender enough to
snap easily. AS a rule it requires
three or more pickings to gather the
crop.
Packages.
Beans are shipped in boxes or ham
pers holding about a bushe1 each
For a long time the box was the
standard package, but i'll recent years
the hamper has almost entirely TAX
en- its place, the best markets fire.
quently quoting beans in hampers at
twenty-five cents more per bushe1
than in boxes. With beans, as with
all other truck crops, care should
be taken to ship only the best and
if the markets are such that we think
it advisable to ship poorer grades,
let them be separated from the best
and if possible under different name.
The hampers are easily packed
about the only precaution necessary
being to see that they are we'll filled.
With the boxes it is necessary to use
much greater care lin placing the
top and bottom layers so as to have
them show up we'll on the market.
Shipment.
Beans are quite perishable and
must always be shipped by express
or refrigerated freight The earliest
beans will always be shipped by ex-
press and the prices will usually justi-
fy the increased cost, but the bulk
of the crop is nearly always sold at
price that will pay little more than
express charges. Ord narily, about
six hundred hampers are put into a
car, and if the crop is reasonably
good they should yield from fifteen to
forty hampers at each picking, so that
if as many as forty acres are grown in
a community there should be no
trouble about shipping the bulk of the
crop by freight In fact, beans, cab
bage, and Irish potatoes are usually
marketed about the same time and
mixed cars Of the three crops might
easily be made up.

Growing Snap Beans
BY E. B. FERRIS
Preparation.


The first essential in growing most
truck crops is to get a lot Of humus,
or partially decayed organic matter,
into the soil and this can be best ac-
compl;shed by turning under legu-
minOus crops like the velvet bean or
better the manure from cattle that
have grazed these beans Here it
is thought best to flat break the land
for beans first and then pu1verize
same thoroughly with harrows, later
laying off the ground into rows from
two and One-half to three feet apart
and distributing the fert,li lizer in the
drill The beds are then completed
and later knocked off with drag or
harrow to where they are only slight
ly higher than the average surface
Of the ground. This elevation is nee
eSSary because the beans are necessar-
lily planted very early when, if drain
age is poor excessive rains are apt
to rot them in the ground. The crop
can be planted in very narrow rows
but those three feet apart are to be
preferred for field culture on account
Of being easier to work with ordinary
farm implements. With the ground
as above outlined the beans are plant
ed with an ordinary corn planter with
special bean plate or disc, or else the
rows are opened with bull tongue
and the beans dropped by hand three
inches apart and covered about two
inches deep. Ordinarily it requires
from 5-8 to one bushe1 of beans to
plant an acre, the quantity being de-
termined both by the variety and by
the width of the row. 1t requires,
for instance considerably more of
the wax beans than of the green pod
ded Valentine to plant a given area
on account Of the relative sizes of the
beans in each.
Varieties.
The two varieties grown mostly
by truckers in this section have been
Wardell's Kidney Wax and Improv-
ed Valentine, the first having a yell
low pod and the last a green pod.
OF these two the wax is about week
earlier, being ready for market in
about fifty days after planting. The
green bean has averaged Welding per
haps ten bushels more per acre and
when both have been grown to per
lection, the wax beans have sold for
better prices and have been lot
easier to pick on account of the larger
pods.
Cultivation.
After the beans are planted care
should be taken to prevent a hard
crust forming over them in case of
heavy rains before the young plants
show above the ground. When
such q thing hannens If Is nacessaru
