results may be expected from spring
ploughing where the furrow is turn-.

Inches. In either ease the. manure
may be ploughed in. or worked in on

only, by combined ef!ort and thoitglit
on the part of the grower coupled
with judicious use of the disc bar_

success of the crop depends largely
upon this' feature of thorough scel
cultivation before seeding. As spun

as weather and soil conditions will
permit, beans should' be Sown. The
last week of May. or the first week
in June is usually the most suitable
time for planting, although the time
of planting may,: vary s'lightly ac-
cording to district ,and 'season, but
