GOLDEN TANKARD MANGEL. 



ARTICHOKE— IMPROVED WHITE FRENCH. 



Produce 1,500 Bushels Per Acre. Easily Grown. Great Disease Preventers. The 



Hogs Do the Harvesting. 



Their wonderful productiveness and the ease with which they can be produced 

 is always a surprise to those who cultivate them the first time. Forty head of hogs 

 and pigs may be kept without other food on an acre of Artichokes from the time frost is out of the ground until they grow 

 again, and from October 1st until the ground freezes solid. Hogs taken from Artichokes to Blue Grass and Clover will not 

 root up the sod, as they are free from intestinal worms, constipation, indigestion and fever, caused 

 by feeding corn in winter. They can be planted either in fall or spring, for while in the ground 

 freezing and thawing does not hurt them. Cut to one eye like po- 

 tatoes, and plant in rows 3% feet apart and IS inches in the row. 

 When dug in the fall and stored they should be mixed with one part 

 of soil to ten parts of Artichokes, to prevent shrinking. Per peck 

 50c; per bushel $1.50; per 3-bushel lots, sufficient for one acre, $4.00.
