Be sure to allow plenty of water, for they usually swell to twice their size. To facilitate handling, when planting drain the water off about an hour be- forehand. After planting, firm the soil well over them. Keeping the surface of the soil moist but not too wet for a few days after plantng also helps their development. Accelerating bean growth in victory gardens As illustrated in the Garden-Graph, plant bush beans in drilles about one to two inches deep. In heavy soils the seeds are not planted as deeply as in sandy soils. Space the beans four inches apart in the row and space rows about two feet apart. All varieties of beans are better eat- ing when picked young. Pods should be picked promptly, as they are ready to prolong, the bearing, for if the beans are permitted to ripen on the vine they quickly give out. giving you two new desserts Which don't require a grain of sugar but Pshould satisfy the family sweet tooth for one day at least — maybe more.
