The first o_nes were just as sweet as ours are.) The wild ones of Sicily were. pink and white,. the same as our Blanche Ferry of today. The following are tested rules for their .culture: (1) Plant early. (2) Make the bed deep. (3) Give plenty of food without a surfeit to. breed diseases. (4) Choose firm heavy ground by preference. (5) Give sunshine. (6) Support the vines early. (7) Keep pods off -for a long display of flowers. (8) See that there is moisture enough that the roots will not parch. (9) Do not plant two] years in succession in the same;. bed. Plant as soon as the ground 7* can be dug.
