POLE BEANS UNDER GLASS.
\ Good Forclnu Crop. AflordinK a
JS"c»v Opportunity to Gardeners.
The forcing of dwarf or brush beana
under glass has boon ft favorite prac
tice at certain seasons of the year with
most gardeners, but it is believed that
the experiments of I'rofessor F. W.
Itane of the New Hampshire
begun in 1800-7. In the forcing of the
pole or running varieties are perhaps
the first of their kind to claim atten
tion. The pole bean, like cucumbers,
tomatoes trained to one stem, sweet
Corn, etc., must have plenty of head
room or space above the bench or bed
In which to develop. Doubtless this
accounts for its not having been con
sidered before. The modern lettuce
and cucumber house, with the beds di
rectly on the ground, are well adapted
for this crop.
rrofessor Kane's experience as sum
med up by himself was very satisfac
tory and appears to open up another
new avenue for the energies of enter
prising market gardeners. His conclu
sions are:
role beans should be included in the
list of vegetables adapted for forcing
under glass.
The requisites for forcing pole beans
under gln.ss are practically the same
as for bush l oans, swivt corn, melons,
cucumbers, etc.. a temperature
of not less than «"•>) dejrrees. with 10 de
grees or more higher during the day.
The hwfee should be kept moist, and
the soil likewise should never become
very dry.
The house adapted for forcing pole
beans should have considerable space
above the beds, ranging alnjut eight
feet.
Pole beans thrive well in almost any
good fertile greenhouse soil. In this
respect they resemble corn.
The time from germination until ma
turity varies with different varieties.
The range for those tested was from
54 to 62 days.
Much time is saved by starting the
seed in pots, precaution being taken
not to allow the plant to become pot
bound before transplanting. The plants
should be In their permanent positions
before they begin to run.
The varieties that were found to do
well when tested were Mastiff (iolden
Pod. Early Golden Cluster and Golden
Champion, named In order of produc
tiveness.
A cord trellis is preferable to the or
dinary beau i>ole for training up the
POLE BEAN'S RCXXIXG UPON STRIXG TRELLIS.
plants. They are more evenly distrib
uted by the use of the cortl, and, too.
the shade from the pole is avoided.
Practically no trouble from insects
or fungus attended the growing of this
crop. One variety developed a slight
tendency to pod rot at the last picking,
lied spider and mite, which have been
reported as troublesome In forcing
dwnrf beans, are kept In check by
maintaining a moist atmosphere.
Where bush beans can be made u
success as n main crop, with a house
adapted for them, pole beans, we be
lieve, will be found much more pro
ductive, area for area, and hence more
profitable.
Winter Bee Notes.
Amoug timely bee notes A. H. Puff
advises In Farm, Field and Fireside as
follows:
If you And a good many dead bees
outside the entrance of the hives after
the bees have taken a fly during win
ter, It is a good sign that they are
strong euough to clean out their hives.
If you find a colony that have no dead
bees at the en trance, you may conclude
it is dead or so weak It is unable to do
business.
Do not offer to feed liquid food in
winter to your bees, for It is almost
sure death to the colony. Begin feed
ing liquid feed after the weather turns
warm iu early spring and the bees arc
flying dally.
You can erect windbreaks at any
time during winter without molesting
the bees, and if not already done, do it
now, as It will pay you for the time
and expense.
Make some candy from the best
grades of sugar, and give It to the bees
that you Uud scarce of stores about
midwinter or a little later.
CriiiiMon Clover.
Tlila crop closely follows rj*e iu the
feeding rotation and has proved very
valuable In New Jersey. It lias been
proved to be quite as hardy as the red
clover and has yielded from S to 11
tons of green forage per acre, depend
ing upou the method of seeding, wheth
er on raw ground or as a cover crop.
Experience In the growth of this crop
indicates that July is the best month
for seeding, though it may be seeded n "
late as September and do well provided
the autumn is moist and warm. The
best crop results are obtained when tin
soil is thoroughly prepared and the
seed lightly covered witfc a harrow or
other tool which does not cover ton
deeply. The amount of seed may range
from 10 to 15 pounds per acre. On
freshly prepared soil the smaller quan
tlty frequently answers quite as well
as the larger, though when seeded in
corn or other crop the larger quantity
Is preferable.

When Colonel Cartwell was military
governor of Norfolk under the Confed
eracy In IS<j2, he ordered the British
consul to report for duty on the home
guard. To this the Englishman object
ed on the ground of being consul at
Norfolk.
"To what government?" asked Colo
nel Cartwell.
"To the t'Kited States government,"
was the reply.
"But you are in the Confederate
states, and rou must show papers ac
crediting you to the Confederate States
of America," said the colonel.
"But my government doesn't recog
nize you as a government," said the
consul.
"Very well, then; my government
doesn't recognize you as consul,"
briskly retorted Colonel Cartwell.
"Shoulder your musket and join your
company."
At this the peacefully disposed con
sul threatened to have a gunboat come
and bombard the place before he would
serve.
"That's Just what I'd like to see,"
returned the colonel cheerily, "for then
the United States will fight you, as she
claims that Norfolk is still part of the
Union, and between England and the
United States fighting we shall go
free."
At last the consul appealed to Mr.
Benjamin, the Confederate secretary
of war, who ordered his exemption
from military duty, and the "three
cornered war" so desired by Colonel
Cartwell never came to pass.—Youth's
Companion.
Unique Weddin* Present.
Most people know of the peculiar cir
cumstances under which Robert Louis
Stevenson won his wife. But even
more romantic and astounding was the
unique wedding gift he got with her.
When Stevenson met his future fate
at Barbizon. a famous artists' resort
near Paris, she was the wife of Mr.
Osborne, an Oakland gentleman. The
friendship thus formed led Stevenson
to pay a visit to California. lie arrived
at Monterey in a dying condition, but
the loving care of Mrs. Osborne and
her sister. Nellie Van der Grift, gradu
ally won him back to life. The nurs
ing completed his lafatuation for the
lady—nn infatuation which he did not
pretend to conceal. Fortunately Os
borne raised no objections. lie not
only agreed to the divorce, but with a
magnanimity rarely excelled actually
attended the wedding breakfast. There
he found his opportunity.
Mrs. Stevenson's one source of regret
was the positive loss of her sou. Lloyd
Osborne, whom, of course, the father
had the right to claim. Osborne made
a happy speech, felicitating tin; newly
married couide. and wound up by offer
ing the most original of wedding pres
ents. "To the bride." he said, "I give
that which of :;li things is nearest and
dearest to her h.-art. her own son."—

The foilov nig story of Ben Butler
was told i.; a man who said lie was
present 011 t!.e occasion:
"Shortly after the war General But
ler deliveied u lecture at I'ike's Opera
Ilo'.v.e in Cincinnati. The general was
well 011 to '.lie climax of liis speech
when slowly from the flies overhead
descended a large wooden spoon on the
end of a Ktrin:?. Down and down it
came until it reached a point two or
three inches aliove the speaker's head,
and then it - tupped.
"The audience. of course, was con
vulsed with mirth. but owing to his
well known visual infirmity the gen
eral was the last to discover the spoon,
and indeed would probably not have
noticed it at all except that in making
an emphatic gesture to Italicize a i>oint
his hand struck the suspended spoon.
"Looking up. he recognized the ene
my and took in the situation at a
glance. Without any sign of embar
rassment or confusion he detached it
from the string and with the remark,
'Hello, there's one 1 didn't get,' laid it
down on the stage and triumphantly
finished his address."
Army Flogrgrlnff.
Soon after General Gataere was ap
pointed an ensign in the Seventy-sev
enth foot he turned out with the com
pany to which he was attached to wit
ness the flogging of a soldier. The
man, who had been convicted of a seri
ous offense and was later to be drum
med out of the corps, took his punish
ment badly, screaming a great deal.
Ensign Gataere shut his eyes and turn
ed white in the face, as though he
would faint. When the punishment
was over, he remarked to his color ser
geant, "If I see much more of this. I'll
sell out."
The "noncom" responded, "You'll get
used to It In time, sir."
"Used to it? I'm sure 1 never shall!"
responded the ensign. Flogging In the
army was soon abolished, however,
and the future general remained In the
service.
