►les, and also one of the most nutritious; the flavor is sweet and highly es-

in spring produces large, fine roots that ma}- remain in the ground all winter or may be 



red in sand or earth in November, thus keeping them plump and sweet, to be 



used as desired 'luring the winter. (See cut.) Packets, 5 and lOcts.; % pound, 2Scts.;
