a pure white skiu variety of the Jerusalem 
Artichoke. The tubers, which are more regularly 
formed than those of the old variety, are some- 
what globular in shape, and of excellent quality.

and also tend to increase the popularity of this 
useful Winter vegetable.

NEW VEGETABLE— CROSNES (Stachys 
tuberifera). First Class Certificate, Royal Horticultural Sooiety. 
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 be left 
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. 
Fine English grown tubers, per lb. 1/-; 3 lb. 2/0 ; 7 lb. 4/0.
