Page — YOUR VICTORY POOLING URGED GARDEN By L. B. LAGESON Agricultural Commissioner THE CULTURE OF BEANS The hean crop stands at the head of the list in importance for the city garden, especially from the standpoint of producing a large quantity of feod alvickly on a limited space. The food value of the bean, in all forms, is also very high, and tt may be grown under a wide range of conditin-s String beans, or snap beans in bush form. are the most popular for plant-! ing ‘1 the small garden. The seed} shou'd not be planted until the) grourd is fairly warm and the danger) of f ost is safely. passed. Siringless Green, Pod, Bountiful, Pencil, Pod. Black Wax and Brittle Wax are some . good early varieties of bush beans. . Where space is limited the bush varje‘i-s. can be planted in rows 24 inches apart with the plants 3 to 4 inches apart in the row. Three or even four plantings at intervals of two or three weeks should be made in order to insure a continuous supply. Pole or climbing beans should be planted in every garden ‘where space will permit. The variety known as Kentucky Wonder produces a plentiful supply that can be eaten pod and all while they are tender, as_ shelled beans when more mature, and as dry beans after they ripen. Henderson Bush and Ford hook Bush Lima are among the leading bush varieties, while King of the Garden, Early Leviathan and Carpenteria are leading pole lima beans. Lima beans require a richer soil than string or snap ‘beans, and the seed should not be planted until the ground is quite warm, fully a week later than snap beans. All beans should be planted comparatively shallow, especially on clay or heavy soils. On light or sandy soils beans _:may be covered from 1 1-4 to 2 inches. Beans will not start well if planted in wet soil or if covered to. deeply. In case more beans are grown than are required for summer use, the! young, tender pods may be canned for winter. Any ‘beans that become too old for immediate use should be allowed to ripen and be. saved for slanting next season or. for cooxing as dry beans. Mr. and Mrs. Jack Garrison motored to Sacramento Tuesday with their son, Rex Garrison, who has enlisted im the navy and received his call to come to Sacramento. He will proceed to San Francisco and go:on to: Farragut, Idaho, . to meet. to the training station. . TO ASSURE W009 WY IPPLY IN 1943 the residents of this part of ne who--eustomarily wood, it is not too early to looking for next year’s supply, Forest Supervisor, Guerdon Ellis. While the fuel wood situation not exrected to be critical, the demand unquestionably will be difficult. Last year many households who withheld placing orders until cold weather, set in, were unable to secure their suplies except by paying 'exorbitant prices to so-called black . markets. There is no reason to expect that supplies will ‘be greater this year, Ellis said. To the contrary there is jless labor available for cutting and hauling wood and serviceable trucks needed to haul product over rough mountain roads are scarce. Natural gas, fuel oil, and coal users may find these sources of heat not so abundant this year. The. whole picture ‘points toward a shortage of fuel wood supplies for ’43 and ’44. In the nearby mountain communities neighbors are planning to meet the situation by pooling their wood gathering activities, each individual contributing his share of th work. An axeman will find his ability used in felling trees, the sawyer will buck the logs, the stouter children will split wood and load-trucks and the womenfolks will provide tasty delicacies. Still others will transport the finished product to the homes. The Tahoe National Forest will assist these’far sighted folk by furnishing abundant supplies of fuel timber, both dead and green, at the nominal sum of 2c per cord. Wood operators desiring fuel timber for resale will be charged 50c per cord for tthe standing trees. Every effort will be made by the federal forest service to provide adequate’ wood supplies, stated the forest official. ; state is! * ~ z GUESTS FROM SISKIYOU burn, begin . states. .
