Ginseng has been known and used as a medicinal herb for 
generations. the Chinese have used it for countless years as a preventative 
medicine. In China, doxzters are engaged to keep pesple wells; whereas, in 
America, we s21%om caji 4 docter wnlees we are sick. For many, many years, 
China and othee Orienial «ccnivtes have imported large quantities of Cinseng 
from the United States. It foxmerly grew wild, but the great demand haz 
practically cause! the wiid growth to disappear and it is now a profitable 
cultivated crop. Yeeus ago Indians, hunters and woodsmen would bring in the 
Ginseng roots and seli inem fox but a few cents a vovnd; but, it now brings 
$ 5.00 or more per pouid, depending on the cuality and the market. ‘This 
Quotation is tew, In the Department of Agriculture Bulletin # 1184, a high . 
price of $17.50 pex pound. an’a lew price of $ 3,62 per pound is quoted; 
and, this was vack in 193,, when the dollar ha¢ more purchasing pewer., Today 
@ conservative average; and we .'!o mean conservative, is $ 5.00 per pound, 
If you have 1/4 Acre; suitable for the growing of 
Ginseng, 2 4 powds of owr Special Canadian Grown Stratified 
Seed will sow ‘his area broadcast. The price of the seed is $ 30,00 a pound $ 
or $ 70,00 for c% pounds, transportation pre;aid, This price of 
70,00 for <3 pounds is a special f:r those interested in thie | 
yam, The seed may be sown according to inatrvctions which we will supply, 
ar follow those set foxth in the above mentioned Farmers Bulletin # 1184, which 
you ¢an order through your Congressman, for ten cents, The best time for 
planting is from now on until Spring, In five years from this original 
planting, with reasonable care and attention, you should have ‘between five 
and six hundred powds of marketable roots; but, let's say that you get only 
+00 pounds, at $5.00 a poun? this amounts to $ 2,000.00 During the 
sive years, you will have had three seed creps, which, following the instructions 
which we will furnish you, or as sre set forth in said Bulletin, when replanted 
should provide for the 7th, Sth, and jth years, and the approximate total of 
249000 pounds. If the figure of $ 5,00 per pound holds, you should gross around
