JERUSALEM ARTICHOKE, flcfin'nthus 

 lulHH'o'siis, flourishes most in a ricJi light 

 soil with an open exposure. Plant 

 middle-sized tubers, or cuttings of the 

 large ones, one or two eyes being pre- 

 served in each. Plant towards the end 

 of March, though it may be performed 

 in February, or even preferably in Oc- 

 tober. 



Insert by the dibble in rows three 

 feet apart each way, and four inches 

 deep. The only attention necessary 

 is an occasional hoeing to loosen the 

 surface, a little of the earth being 

 drawn up about the steins. Farly in 

 August cut the stems off about their 

 middle, to admit more freely the air 

 and light, and in other respects to be 

 beneficial to the tubers. 



They may be taken up as wanted 

 during September ; and in October, or, 

 as soon as the stems have withered 

 entirely, for preservation in sand for 

 winter's use. They should be raised 

 as completely as possible; for -the 

 smallest piece of tuber will vegetate 

 and appeal' in spring. It is for this 

 reason that they are often allotted 

 some remote corner of the garden ; but 

 their culinary merits certainly demand 

 a more favourable treatment.

Hardy deciduous trees, all blossoming in 

 April. Nuts sown when gathered, or preserved 

 until the following spring, in order to keep 

 them from vermin ; also grafting and budding 

 the more rare species and varieties: in budding, 

 the small, almost inconspicuous buds at the 

 base of the year's shoot are to be chosen ; deep 

 loamy soil. In such soils the nut should be 

 inserted where the tree is to grow ; in all poor 

 soils it is better to be transplanted, so as to cut 

 the tap root, and cause the roots to feed more 

 among the good surface soil.
