 le aux Pimeiis. The Committee is glad to hear that the 

 eultivation of this iraportanl root is attracting some of the 

 attention formerly bc.-towed ujion it. An inslrumeni,

 manual hibo. r required in it* pieparation. It has been 

 suggested, by one of the inembcrs of the Committee, Ihat 

 some one, or other, of the ins' nious methods employed in 

 France for the preparation of »Fecu!e, »> might be modi- 

 fied for the purpose.
