HOW TO PLANT 
Tubers and rootstocks are very easily planted.

which is between 1 and 2 inches in thickness. Whit- 
tle off one side at end to make a flat surface, then 
drive two nails into this flat surface on a slant to 
make a sort of crotch. Place a tuber into this crotch 
and push it into the mud about 3 or 4 inches. Plant 
these about 3 feet apart. These tubers are usually 
planted from a boat.
