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 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. ;
