RAISING KHUI5AK15, OK IME-PLANT, WITHOUT 

 CULTIVATION. 



You can raise rhubarb as you say. simply by 

 mulching for live or six years; then it begins 

 to grow spindling and small. The best way to 

 get new is to divide up the old roots to one or 

 two eyes, and set out in a new place in sandy 

 soil; at least, this has been our experience, 

 and no doubt it would be yours.
