Three hens set now with 15 eggs

Independent of the cold storage egg
merchant next winter, according to
College of Agriculture poultry hus
bandry specialists. These eggs will
hatch, on an average, 26 live chicks
of which 12 will be pullets. With
proper care, they will lay 4 dote
eggs weekly, the amount consumed
by the average family.
Two piano boxes placed back to

enough to winter 12 pullets. Such
boxes cost t each. The cost of feed
required to raise the pullets will be

Nebraska University Farm ExteiiNlon
Service Advises Western Nebras
ka Farmers to Try New Crop
The Nebraskn college of agricul
ture advises the growing of beans In
central nnd western Nebraska as an
emergency "war crop" and In order
to help out In send shortage has se
cured two carloads of seed beaoe to
be sold to the farmers of thlB section
of the Btate at cost. Bean seed will
be furnished as long as the supply
lasts. The price will not exceed 22
cents per pound for Navy Beans and
18 cents per pound for Pinto Beans
The Navy Beans price Is f. o. b., Lin
coln and the Pinto bean is f. o. b.,
Sidney.
Many western Nebraska farmers
and gardners have advised the Her
ald that they expect to plant beans
this year and havxo asked for advise
regarding the securing of seed and
the planting of the same. The fol
lowing statement, issued by Prof. C.
W. Pugsley, director of the Exten
sion service, will give the informa
tion desired:
"We r.re having many inquiries for
Navy and Pinto bean seed. Pinto
beans are especially adapted to cen
tral and western Nebraska. We have
made an effort to locate bean seed in
quantities and have succeeded in lo
cating a limited amount. The seed
is very scarce and it will be necesBery
to book the orders at once in case we
are to take advantage of the prices
quoted. When the beanB are laid
down it may be found possible to
scale the price a few cents a pound.
The seed is being located by the col
lege of agriculture (Nebraska) for
sale to farmers at cost.
"It is necessary that cash accom
pany the oredrs, and in case the ord
ers cannot be filled, the cnBh will be
returned and the party notified at
once. 1 would suggest that the beans
be ordered in quantities a number of
farmers clubbing together. This
will reduce expense In handling the
, beans.

sion service, college or agriculture.

ery can be given, but within a" few
days we hope to be notified of the ap
proximate date for delivery. Bean

price, und our orders for two cars
could only be placed subject to the
ability of the parties to locate beans.
A new circular on "Bean Culture"
Emergency bulletin No. 4, has Just
: been Issued by the extension service.
It will be sent free upon request.
Bean Culture
The large acreage of crops winter
killed in Nebraska necessitates the
substitution of other plants for these
standard crops. Bonas have always
been an important article of human
diet. They are rich in protein and
are a very valuable substitute for
meat. Being concentrated as well
aB peculiarly nourishing, beans are
extensively uBed, especially in war
times.
Fortunately the climate and soil of
Nebraska, particularly of th western
part of the state, are very favorable
to bean production. Beuns do well on
almost any kind of soil; but they do
Dest on sandy loams A soil which
Is not too sandy for potatoes and
which has a sufficient amount of fer
tility for plant growth will grow
beans well. They can ge grown fol
lowing almost any crop excepting e
. guinea. BeanB should not follow
beans on account of the increased
danger of disease. Where winter
I wheat has been killed out, little labor
J will be necessary to get the ground
; in excellent condition for beans. On
j alfalfa or clover land the tendency
is for the beans to grow too much to
iVineB unless the season from the out
set is pretty dry. An excellent place
to grow beans Is on sod or backset
ting s.-ed Red Preparation
Beans respond to good Beed bed pre
paration. Land la best prepared by
diskplowing. If the land was plowed
in the fall, it should be worked down
firm with disk and harrow. Where
spring plowing is done, the plow
6hauld be followed by the disk set
rather straight to pulverise the soil
and at the same time make it firm.
Land that was fall plowed for wheat
need uot be plowed for beans. It
rlgated land and nonirrtgated land
In eastern Nebraska, from 20 to 30
pounds of seed should be UBed per
acre. The rows may be closer to
gether and the plants 12 to 15 Inches
apart In hte row. Bean growers in
the irrigated sections of the west
have received their largest yields
when approximately 30 pounds of
seed have been used.
Navy and Pinto beans should be
planted -about 2 inches deep In aver
age soli (or 3 indies nl sandy soil or
where necessary to put the beans In
mo'st soli.)
CultivnUon
Sufficient cultivation should be giv
en to keep the aurface soil loose and
prevent weed growth. , Weeds not
only retard the crop development but
if abundant seriously Interfere with
harvesting. A harrow or weeder
may beused when the plants are
young if the boII 1b not too moist and
the plnnts are dry. Beans should not
be cultivated when the plants are
moist as they are more brittle and
break easily at this time. This not
only reduces the stand but Injured
plantB are more susceptible to certain
diseases. The tiist cultivation may
be comparatively deep, 3 or 4 inches
aB the young plants will not have ex
tended I heir roots far this time. This
loosened soil will tend to make the
roots form below it. Later cultiva
tion should be somewhat shallower
to avoid any destruction of the roots.
Irrigation
Where beans are grown under Ir
rigation, care should be taken not to
give too much water. On rather
heavy loam soils two irrigations have
given better results than a greater
number of irrigations. Soils which
have a lower water holding capacity
will probably need more frequent Ir
rigation. When the plants have a
dark green color and wilt during the
heat of the day, they are in need of
water. Water should not be applied
after the blooming season under or
dinary Boil conditions. loiter irriga
tions are apt to prolong the growing
season and endanger the crop from
frost before it is ripened.
Harvesting
Where only a small area ingrown
beanB can be harvested by pulling
them up. Larger areas can be har
vested by using some instrument that
will cut the plants just belOw the boII
surface. This Is sometimes done
with a plow or cultivator. Imple
ments much like a row sled are pro
videdwith knives on either side of the
bottom of the runners. These will
cut off two rows at a time. Arms
are also provided to throw the vines
from the two rows together. Special
bean harvesters are alBO on the mar
ket, but there purchase might not be
advisable except where beans are
grown extensively. Vines pulled or
cut off are put in shocks with forks.
Beans should be harvested when
the majority of the pods are turning
yellow, but before the pods are dry.
If allowed to fully ripen before har
vesting the loss from shattering is j
too great. By harvesting at the time
mentioned, the bena will complete
ripening in the shock. Shocks should
be rather small so that all vines can
dry thoroly. They may be built as
high as lin y will stand without blow
ing over. Beans should remain in
the shock until thoroly cured and dry
enough to thresh. Where possible
thev should be threshed as soon us
the) are in proper condition in order!
to avoid loss thru handling. If it is
impossible to thresh at that time they
shottM be stacked to prevqnt diBCol- j
oration and loss from exposure. They j
should be handled carefully in Btack- !
ing to avoid loss. The vines are us-'
ually a little tougher in the early part
oi the day when they are still moist 1
with dew. and there will be less shat-
tering if handled then. Stacks should
be kept off the ground by using!
boards or straw beneath. The ground i
should be covered with hay, straw, j
canvaa or anything that will keep out '
the rain.
Th resiling
Where only small areas (up to sev-j
eral acres) are grown beans may be i
beaten out with a flail. In this way
very few beans are cracked, and all
may be saved. One man can thresh i
irom one to two acres a day with u
flail. With larger areas or where
neighborhoods can go together, a
bean huller is preferable. A grain
separator may be used if most of the
concave teeth are removed and the
cylinder is run at a low rateVif speed;
but even then there is apt to be a
heavy loss from cracking the beans,
and from failure to get all of the j
beans out of the pods.
