PRESERVING
SURPLUS
BEANS .
Growers who have a surplus of scarlet run- ners may preserve them for winter use in one of several ways . The beans may be salted , or in the case of old beans the seed may be ex- tracted and dried , either naturally or in a drying machine or oven .
To preserve by salting you pick the beans when dry , or dry them before a fire . Then clean with a dry cloth , put them raw into a big stone jar or wooden barrel - a layer of salt inch thick , and so on until full . Cover with a cloth resting on the vegetables and on top of the cloth place a piece of board or a plate which must be weighted with stones or
