Uncle Harvey’s Beans It was in late October that Uncle Harvey took the notion he wanted to grow bean vines in ears. We all tried to tell him it was too late to do any more planting, but he had been raising hubbubs (a kind of native radish) all fall and having very good luck with them, and nothing could dissuade him. So he wrote to his congressman lo there was until the last one was safe in its new home! Then the long thrilling da waiting, and the awesome nings when Uncle Harvey would sit by the fire making tiny gar- ments. Uncle Harvey tired very easily in those days, and called for hard-boiled egg sandwiches so continuously that we were a little afraid it was going to be spinach but we kept smiling bravely. How clearly it all comes back: Aunt Abner saying gently, “It's time to take the eggs out, dear,” and Uncle Harvey going to take them out, for the doctor had said that a little exercise and light housework was good; then Uncle Harvey calling, man-like, from the kitchen, “What shall I t the eggs out and Aunt Abner trilling back, “Spades, of course, you chowderhead !” Everything was different in our household after that. “Uncle Harvey's beans” got to be a sort of watchword, You couldn't do this or couldn't do that on account s of instead, of “Uncle Harvey's beans.” And many were the trying situations resulting. For instance, you imagine how Aunt Abner tried to avoid the deacon’s wife Sunday mornings, so as not to have to ay, “Oh, yes, Harvey'll be right along—he’s just getting his beans picked for dinner!” The tendrils made it bad, too. The way those tendrils would grab onto things was something awful. Whenever anything got lost, the saying was “Look in Uncle Harvey's beans Everything that disappeared around the house would turn up in those beans, just like in a iner! Why, once the aner itself—but per- haps we'd better not go into that. You couldn't say a word ast Uncle Harvey's beans, though. I will forget the time a neighbor lady alluded to them slightingly. What she really said was that they were a “pair of sights,” which wasn’t so ve conside vacuum ci vacuum | never y bad, ing. But Uncle Harvey thought she d them “para- es,” and x mad? Still, with all their drawbacks, those beans had ce ad ges. For insta stimu lated no end of merry word-play between Uncle Harvey and. his pals (for Unc' ty liked a good joke on his beans, so long as it was in the right spirit), When- ever a friend would meet Uncle Harvey on the street he would grect him, “Howdy, Harvey!
