HOW TO rORCE RHUBARB. 



Please tell me how to force rhubarb 

 under the benches or in a cool house. 

 H. E. H.— W. Va. 



Rhubarb will start too slowly in a cool 

 house. It should be boxed in so that it 

 will be in complete darkness, or as near 

 that condition as possible. The stalks 

 will then have a good red color. At this 

 season rhubarb needs a warm green- 

 house. If you do not have such a 

 house, perhaps you have a warm cellar 

 in which you can start the plants and 

 from which light can be more easily ex- 

 cluded. Pack some soil about the roots, 

 soak them well with water and moisten 

 the soil as needed. Do not wet the 

 stalks as they are growing, or rot may 

 set in, especially where they are kept 

 closely and in darkness. The warmer 

 and darker the roots can be kept, the 

 more quickly they will start. C. W.
