Another Suggestion
Year Aunt Daisy, | You were saying, that a Jady found her salted-down beans had gone mouldy. Well, I really think it is because she has not kept stirring the beans and salt, at least once a day, until the brine comes. I do them every year with great success. Hoping this will help.

Have you tried this method? . Instead of using the alternate layers of salt and beans, allow 1b. salt and Ib,’ sugar to | each 2'44Ib. of beans. Cut the beans for the table, put into a bowl, and | sprinkle them with the sugar : and salt, Mix it thoroughly right through the beans, Leave overnight. Next day pack the beans into jars, and,cover with the brine which formed. Keep in a cool place. Do not serew airtight. More can be added if a big crock is used, as the beans in the garden get ready. Just prepare overnight as above.
