ARTICHOKE—Culture. Requires rich, heavily manured soil. 
In the North, plant in a protected position. Sow the seed late 
in February up to the middle of March in a hot bed, trans- 
plant into cold frames and plant in the open when danger of 
frost is past. Press the dirt FIRMLY to the roots of the 
seedlings, but never plant them deeper than they stood be- 
fore transplanting Artichoke must at no time be allowed to 
suffer from lack of moisture. One can also sow the seed in 
the open late in April. From this sowing you will get a crop 
the following year and then for many years. The plants must 
be protected over winter with a layer of dirt a foot deep with 
manure placed on top of this dirt. The dirt must be removed 
gradually with the approaching spring else the plants are 
liable to rot over winter. Before dirt is placed on top of the 
ae cut the stalks and leaves close to the surface of the 
ground. 
MANY LONG ESTABLISHED, big, wise and experienced 
growers use our seeds, There is a reason.
