CHUFAS 
815 The Chufa is a species of ground-nut, most easily 
grown. Any land suitable for corn, cotton, or peanuts 
will make a bumper crop of Chufas. Plant from April 
until the end of June, in 2%- to 3-foot rows, drop- 
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. 
The crop is usually matured about September 15, and 
ean be left in the ground until time to turn the hogs 
in. Lb. 60c; 2 Ibs. $1.10; 5 Ibs. $2.15. Not pre-

ARTICHOKE 
816 Jerusalem or Ground... Every hog-raiser 
should grow Artichokes, for they come year after year, 
and keep the hogs in fine condition. You grow them 
just as you would potatoes: Cut them two eyes to the 
piece and plant 2 inches deep, 15 to 18 inches apart in 
3- to 3%-foot rows. In thé fall when they have ma- 
tured, turn the hogs into the field, and they will feed 
on them all winter except when thé 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 maké 
‘an excellent table dish when served hot or chilled. Re- 
quires about 250 pounds to plant an acre.. Plant dur- 
ing March or April, the earlier the better; they stand 
considerable drought and extreme cold weather. Lb,
