The Agricultural Extension Service
Of the University of Vermont and the
committee on food production and con
servation of the state public safety
committee offers the following sug-
gestions as to the growth of field
/ beans.
Beans do better on well drained
loans or clay loans than on light
sands or heavy clays. They need an
abundance of lime. Land that is too
acid to grow red clover should be
lined before beans are sown. Clover
sod or grass sod make an ideal seed
bed for beans. Plow early and pre-
pare thoroughly, so as to conserve
moisture.
Fertilization
II the soil is low in organic matter,
apply eight to ten tons Of farm
manure but do not make heavy appli-
cations of 20 or more tons lest leaf
growth be forced at the expense Of
the seed crop. No manure whatever
is needed on good clover or grass sod.
Apply 200 to 400 pounds Of CONNER
cial fertilizer containing not over two
per cent Of nitrogen and from eight TO
ten per cent Of phosphoric acid. Pot
ash will help if you can afford the
price. Hardwood ashes, applied at the
rate Of 500 pounds per acre, will fur
nish both potash and lime. Do not mix
the ashes and the fertilizer but apply
Do not allow either fer
tilizer or ashes to come in contact
with the bean seed, as it is likely to
kill it.
Planting
Use seed that is free from disease.
Look especially for weeviled and an
seed. Weeviled seed is
killed, and anthracnosed seed, if
planted, produces diseased plants. II
the crop is to be hand harvested, plant
in hills two feet apart, in rows 80
inches. Plant two to four seeds TO
the hill. If the crop is to be machine
plant in drills 30 inches
apart with plant every four to six
inches. Red kidney beans in drills re-
Iuire four to five pecks per acre; yei-
ow-eyes, practically bushel; pea
,eans, about three pecks. All three
are standard. Do not plant
until the soil is warm enough for corn,
,ut plant before June goth or the crop
will fail TO mature.
Cultivation
Go over the field with a weeder or
narrow at least once before the beans
ONE up, TO kill the first weeds. When
he crop has come up. care must be

ton of the state public safety commit
tee urges the preservation Of young
carrots and beets thinned from the
rows.
When il is time to thin out rows Of
beets and carrots save any not needed
for the table by canning them. These
young vegetables are far more delic-
ious in winter than the older, coarser,
and stronger favored one kept in the
cellar. Young beets may be canned
with the tops left on.
Preparation for Canning
Clean as for cooking for table, being
careful not to cut roots or tips close
enough to cause bleeding" as this
means loss of color flavor and food
value. After "blanching" pack into
cans whole, or the carrots may be
sliced thick. If packed carefully the
small ones will occupy no more space
whole than cut, II peas are in season
at the time it is an excellent variation
to cut some of the carrots in large
dice and can with peas. Each i'm
proves the flavor of the other for
serving.
Use of Carrots
If your family do not eat carrots
try them while young, sweet and deli
cate in flavor. They are valuable as
food, ranking in nutrients between the
richest vegetables as cereals, legumes,
and the potato, on the one hand, and
the more watery tomato, celery and
other succulent vegetables on the
other.
