ASPARAGUS ROOTS 
Asparagus roots are planted in trenches 1 foot wide and 6 inches 
deep. Lay the roots 18 inches apart, taking care to spread the 
roots well with the crown up. Then cover them with about 4 
inches of soil. As the plants begin to srow, gradually fill in the 
trenches to the surface. They may be planted in either single-row 
or double-row beds, allowing about 8 to 4 feet between beds, in 
either case, 2-year-old plants, set owt in the Spring, will yield tips 
for use the following Spring; however, it is best to cut sparingly 
the first season. One-year-old plants should not be cut until the 
second season. 40c for 25; $1.25 per 100; $11.00 per 1000.
