fact that rottenness, when it is owing to any external cause, 
always commences at any cut or bruised portion of the surface. 
It thus becomes of importance that the surface of the roots 
ghouid be cut or abraded as ELS as possible. The root fibres 
Should not be cut off at all, the edis should be cut off so 
far from the crown of the bbotj £s that they may fall separated 
from one another, Sofar as our deer oes hitherto ione 
if these points be carefully attended to, an ndif such a plan of 
harvesting be adopted as fulfils the three requisites of success 
before alluded to, there is but little risk of the farmer losing 
much of his erop by heating or putrefaction before the spring.
