Need Warm Soil One pound of bush beans is sufficent for 50 feet of row; one-half. pound of pole beans (except limas) will plant 100 hills; and one-half pound of limas is advised for 35 hills. Beans thrive best in a warm and fertile soil and ample drainage is important. Manure should be well mixed with the soil before sowing. Side dressing with

is advised once during the growing season. Pole beans should be fertilized twice after the plants have begun to climb. Do not work among the plants when the foilage is wet from rain or morning dew. Because beans are considered a soil-building crop, they should not be fed with nitrogenous chemical of any sort. Inoculate all bean seeds with nitro~ gen-secreting bacteria to: stimulate growth. Bush and pole plants should be kept picked of beans to prevent pods from maturing and plants from dying. Three Good Pickings Bush beans will mature in 50 to 60 days and three good pickings may be expected. ‘Weeding and shallow cultivation is part of the program. Pole beans appreciate a good mulch about the plants and between the rows. Apply the mulch before the weeds get a head start. Straw, grass clippings, peatmoss, make good mulching material. Avoid bean rust by growing rust-resistant varieties. Insects are controlled by dusting with calcium arsenate before the pods form, and . rotenone after that period. The dust must hit the insects, and gotten on the under side of the leaves.

SING SING'S GATES CLOSE ON LONERGAN

OSSINING, N. Y., April 18 (U. P.).—Wayne Thomas Lonergan became No. 103,124 today as he adjusted himself to the routine behind the gray walls of Sing Sing prison for the murder of his pretty heiress wife, Patricia, last Oct. 24. The former R. C. A. F. alrcraftman was sentenced yesterday to from 35 years to life for second. degree murder, thus ending a “career” that spanned the gap from rooming house and cheap beaneries to the drawing room and gay nights in New York's gilded cafe set. Lonergan will be eligible to apply for parole after he has served 23 years and four months, and appeared forever cut from the $7,000, 000 brewery fortune to which his wife was heiress, and from any parental rights over his 21-months-old son, Wayne William Lonergan,

60P CONSIDERS KEYNOTE CHOICE

Clare Luce Leading Field for Chicago Task.

CHICAGO. April 18 (U. P))., = Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg, (Mich) and - Rep. Clare Boothe Luce (Conn.) were mentioned prominently today to make the keynote address at the Republican national convention as the committee on arrangements, headed by Harrison BE. Spangler, national chairman, met here in executive session to pick a temporary chairman. . One of the principal chores of the committee will be the selection of the keynoter, but Spangler refused to spEculate on any possible choice. “The fleld is wide open,” he said on his arrival yesterday. Republican leaders, however, talked most of Vandenberg, a veteran of 16 years in the senate, who recently named Gen. MacArthur as his choice for the Republican presidential nomination.
