RED MANGEL. reduce 1,500 Bushels Per Acre. Easily Grown. Great Disease Preventers. The 
=e Hogs Do the Harvesting. 
Yield 1,200 to 1,500 Busie.s per Acre. Their wonderful productiveness and the ease with which they can be produced is 
alvrays a surprise to those who cultivate them the first time. A. C. Williams, of 
Iowa, a very prominent breeder of Poland Chinas in large numbers, says: “The keep of my hogs when the ground is not 
frozen, is Blue Grass, Clover and Artichokes. 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. They produce more hog food per acre than any crop I am acquainted ‘with, and the hogs will , 
harvest the crop themselves. “Hogs taken from Artichokes to Blue Grass and Clover will not root up 
the sod, as they are free from irtestinal worms, constipation, indigestion and fever, caused by feed- 
ing corn in winter. They can bé planted either in fall or spring, for 
while in the ground freezing and thawing does not hurt them. Cut 
to one eye like potatoes, and plant in rows 3% feet apart and 18 
inches in the row. The second year break up the ground as for 
corn, after which the plants will come up thick all over the surface, 
run through each way with a cultivator when a few inches high, 
putting them in hills like corn. If ‘left t00 thick they will not yield. 
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 three bushel lots, sufficient for one acre,
