The culture is by sets or root cuttings. These sets are planted ver- 

 tically in rows or furrows, 2 to 3 feet apart and 15 to 18 inches apart in 

 the rows with the small end down, so that the top is about 2 inches 

 below surface. It delights in a deep, rich soil.

The roots are so much larger and heavier than the common variety 

 that the yield is about doubled. Then, too, it matures much quicker.
