should be plowed In the fall. In the
spring this land should be worked
down into a seed bed. making as good

Beans respond to good preparation.
Consequently enough attention should
be paid to disking. narrowing and

sections listing has been attempted as
the method of preparing the soil for
bean planting. Listing, however. is
poor practice, except upon soils which
cannot be safely plowed, because Of
their very strong tendency TO blow.
Where the Land is prepared by list

the development OF the crop and delay
