NEW VEGETABLE— 
CROSNES (Stachys 
tuberifera). First Class Cer- 
tificate, Royal Horticultural Society. 
This is a new tuberous vegetable 
introduced from Japan. It is a hardy 
plant, producing a large quantity of 
tubers in the same way as the Potato. 
Its culture is very easy, as it grows 
well in any good garden soil, and is 
readily propagated by means of its 
numerous tubers. They may he loft 
in the ground until required for use, 
as the severest frost does not injure 
them in any way. The best and 
simplest way of cooking this vegetable 
is to boil in water with a pinch of salt, 
then fry them. They are of delicate 
flavour, somewhat resembling boiled 
Chestnuts.
