MORE BEANS.

[National Crop Improvement Service.] A ff'—irr in TTiil brl 111 l"d" Minn , planted twenty acres of beans from which he received 377 bushels, selling them in the field for $1,185. This is not the highest record. The Michigan men and the Colorado men and, in fact, all states are turning to beans with a great deal’of success. There are three main principles to be observed in the control of weeds. They are: first, preventing the weeds from going to seed on the farm; second, preventing’ the weed seeds being brought to the farm, and third, in the case of perennials, starving out the underground parts by preventing them from making top growth.
