tender, sugary. It is remarkably free from side roots; in fact, in this 
respect it is about the cleanest of all parsnips. It is fine grained and 
of superior flavor. Not only of fine table quality but the heavy yield 
and high sugar content make it very desirable for stock feeding. Par- 
snips will improve the richness of your cows’ milk. Will also store
