Beans as a profitable crop for soil enrichment and weed control
The author extols beans, particularly navy beans, as a profitable crop that cleanses land for wheat. Beans suppress weeds, improve soil, and allow early plowing for subsequent rye or wheat. Plant in mid June, drill one bushel per acre, roll and harvest promptly. Cultivation should be shallow, with two-foot spacing, and threshing best in dry weather or with careful horse trampling. The tree bean is dismissed as a misnamed improvement from southern markets.
