ARTICHOKE 
Seed may be sown in February and March. When seedlings are 
large enough for transplanting they should be transplanted in rows 
three or four feet apart, and two feet apart in the row. Seed can 
also be sown in hills, thinning out to one plant to each hill. Arti¬ 
chokes grown from seed are not always satisfactory owing to the large 
percentage of undesirable types produced.

Artichoke, Jerusalem or Tuberose Rooted 
This produces potato-like tubers. The tubers, which are 
planted and cultivated the same as potatoes, are well known 
in European countries as a fine vegetable for the table. 
Used in this country in a moderate way—mostly as a feed 
for hogs and are considered as one of the best feeds, re¬ 
markable for their fattening properties and productiveness 
(over one thousand bushels have been raised on one acre), 
and the ease with which they can be grown. They need 
riot be dug as the hogs help themselves by rooting. Also 
considered an excellent feed for rabbits and other stock. 
Plant ten bushels per acre.
