Fifteen years ex­ perience shows that as good cereal crops can be grown following beans as after an ordinary summer fallow. The cultivation of the bean crop replaces the work neces­ sary to care for the fallow, and leaves the soil in excellent con: dition for seeding winter wheat.

Beans do not seriously compete i with wheat for labor, and the two crops can be grown with practical­ ly the same equipment. W ith the present wage for man and horse labor it requires about $6 more per acre to grow, /harvest, ant market a crop o f beans than it does to summer-fallow an equa area. Since beans yield on the average about 800 pounds per acre and sell for 3 cents per pound, the gross return per acre is approximately $24. In districts adapted to bean culture, beans are therefore approximately $18 per acre more profitable than summer fallow. Generally speaking, the soils o the bean-growing districts are rich in all of the mineral elements necessary for plant growth. Under such conditions the maintenance of soil fertility w ill' depend al­ most entirely on keeping up the organic matter of the soil. This is not easily accomplished when beans or cereal crops are grown exclusively. Stubble should al­ ways be plowed under instead of 1 being burned.
