Pole beans have: ‘growninto disfavor be- cause of the ican ' characteristic of secking short €uts’ and labor ‘saving de- vices. Bush beans have the call, partic- ularly in the string bean ¢lass. There are two very good reasons for growing pole beans instead of the bush varlety. First of all, pole bean furnighes a vastly greater quantity of beans per plant. than Hoes' the bush variety and identical in quality. Bush limas are not prolific. bearers, comparatively spéaking, .and the pole lima 1a much {6, be preterred. Secondly, the bllfln‘ ‘season is almost. twice a5 long. A third s that it.ts much less wearing o the ‘back and legs to -pick beans standing up ‘than it Js stooping greriasaiitn iug Kugs W6l O Jibti sun, as is necessary in harvesting bush beans. One reason pole beans are grown so little compared” with the dwarf varieties is because of the trouble and difficulty of. securing and- setting -poles. It lsn't as bad 2 job as it looks, for oncefpoles are secured they’ may be put away in the fall and used’ for several seasons. Putting them in place is something of a Job, but it 18 worth the trouble. 2 Pole beans take longer to come into bearing and are a fine continuation crop for bush beans. One usual mistake is in ‘getting too hort poles.. 'On six-foot poles. the Vines will tumble back when they have reach- ed the top, intertwine and smother them- selves. fool poles’ and set them a foot deep in. the ground.” Carry strings from the top of ‘one pole to another and the vines will take the strings in a hurry, leaving the beans to hang down in plain sight where they can'be easily harvested. If there is a scarcity of poles, make a wigwam or tent planting. This is done by planting the beans in a circle around the pole from two to two and a half feet from the base of the pole, the beans about eight inches apart. Iet strings come from the top of the pole to each bean and,the vines will make the tent, once they get going. YELLOW TURNIPS. Yellow -turnips ‘or rutabagas need .a longer season than the white varieties. They should be sown early and thinned to ten inches apart in rows two feet apart. This will give an early fall crop for table use and for winter storage an- other planting should: be made in June. Should be sown with the early vegetables It is best to~get eight or nine-] ¥ people prefer the vellow sturnips to-the white because of the tendency. of the latter to grow pithy . and spongy when mature. Theirgrhief value is to be eaten young and as a follow crop to peas and beans. . Twelfth of July, wet or.dry, is the ancient dictum for the planting of turnips.. This is generally after the peas have ceased to bear and have been pulled up. Turnips are a good. follow crop for | e1rly peas. g For early summer use, white turnips but as they are not as popular during the hot ‘months as in the early fall season, the space may be used for other vegetable: unless the garden is of ample proportion: SOWING YOUNG ONIONS QUICKLY. Right now is the time to get onion sets | into. the ground for the succulent.young onfon.' Those who had multipliers in the garden last year can be pulling fresh young onions' for the table. The multi- plier onfon is the standby, for the earliest, fresh vgetable from the garden. Tt is hardy, remains in the ground all winter, grows in bunches, anda few of them should be in every garden for the earliest crop. The, sets may be obtained now and alcrop started. - Onion sets give young onions in half the time they can be ralsed from seed, and serve to start the crop. They are also useful for giving an éarly crop of mature bulbs, but a.certain percentage of them will run up to seed and fail to form bulbs- that can be used. ‘White. sets are the most popular and therefore command the highest price, but the yellow and red sets will give equally 48 good returns, although the red sets do not_ give as attractive . looking voung onions. Orilon sets, to economize space, may be set in double rows six inches apart and two inches apart in the rows. This is for young -onlens only, as it is too close to give any chance to raise the best mature onions. For a row 50 feet long, planted double, it takes one quart of setd. To get the earliest and tenderest young onions. from- sets, the ground should be thoroughly fertilized with -old manure, use mo fresh, and cultivate deeply and finely. ‘A few frosts won't hurt the young onions and they may be put into the ground as soon as it can be worked. 1t gains nothing, however, to try to plant them while the soil is still wet and soggy.

The average production for the first: week in May is 4402 eggs, but in the contest now running the-hens laid 4772 eggs or a yield of more than 63 per cént. - This means that the 1,000 hens in the contest have come through with an average daily production of 632 eggs Quring the. first week of the month. During the 27th week there were rela- tively fewer ultra large or ‘double yolk- ed eggs than could reasonably be ex- pected. There were only six over-sized eggs laid during the week, whereas on the average there should have been be- tween nine and ten. The usual estimate for large eggs is about one out of every 500 eges laid, or two-tenths of ome per cent. It is interesting to note that this Tatlo of double to single yolked eggs is less than twice as high as the ratio of twin to single births in the human fam- fly. Furthermore fewer double yolked eggs are laid as the hens grow older. It has- been estimated that more than 80 per cent. of all double yolked eggs are 1aid by ‘pullets less than one year old. The Long Island pen of Barred Rockw entered by Jules F. Francals from West- hampton Beach which has been winning out each week with great regularity, was again at the head of the list with 65 eggs. These ten birds were therefore within five eggs of a perfect weekly ecore, which by the way has mever yet been made in the nine years that the contests have been conducted. L. A.
