ping 3 to 5 Chufas together, 16 to 18 inches apart in 
the row, and cover 2 inches deep. In the fall pull up 
a few plants for your stock to taste, and they will 
then go over the entire field and will attend to the 
harvesting. Requires 1 to 1% pecks to plant an acre,

just as you woyld potatoes: Cut them two eyes to the 
piece and plant 2 inches deep, 15 to 18 inches apart in 
3- to 3%4-foot rows. In the fall when they have ma- 
tured, turn the hogs into the field, and they will feed 
on them all winter except when the ground is wet or 
frozen. They are more productive than potatoes. 
Yields of 700 bushels have been grown on an acre of 
good land, but 300 to 400 bushels is nearer the aver- 
age crop. Although grown principally for hogs, they 
are fine food for cattle, sheep and horses. Also make 
an excellent table dish when served hot or chilled. Re-
