JERUSALEM ARTICHOKE, flcfin'nthus
lulHH'o'siis, flourishes most in a ricJi light
soil with an open exposure. Plant
middle-sized tubers, or cuttings of the
large ones, one or two eyes being pre-
served in each. Plant towards the end
of March, though it may be performed
in February, or even preferably in Oc-
tober.
Insert by the dibble in rows three
feet apart each way, and four inches
deep. The only attention necessary
is an occasional hoeing to loosen the
surface, a little of the earth being
drawn up about the steins. Farly in
August cut the stems off about their
middle, to admit more freely the air
and light, and in other respects to be
beneficial to the tubers.
They may be taken up as wanted
during September ; and in October, or,
as soon as the stems have withered
entirely, for preservation in sand for
winter's use. They should be raised
as completely as possible; for -the
smallest piece of tuber will vegetate
and appeal' in spring. It is for this
reason that they are often allotted
some remote corner of the garden ; but
their culinary merits certainly demand
a more favourable treatment.

them from vermin ; also grafting and budding
the more rare species and varieties: in budding,
the small, almost inconspicuous buds at the
base of the year's shoot are to be chosen ; deep
loamy soil. In such soils the nut should be
inserted where the tree is to grow ; in all poor
soils it is better to be transplanted, so as to cut
the tap root, and cause the roots to feed more
among the good surface soil.

Annuals and biennials, by seed, in a hotbed,
and to be treated as tender and half-hardy an-
nuals ; many of them, and all the shrubs and
herbaceous species, are easily propagated by
cuttings, old shoots, and young side shoots,
striking very soon in sandy soil, under a glass,
in heat, most of the leaves being allowed to re-
main. As they are fast growers, where room is
at all valuable, young ones should be grown,
and the old ones thrown away every year ; peat
and loam. Summer temp., 60 to 85 ; winter,
48 to 55. The following are a few of the
best : Coccinea, Cornea, Comata, Formosa,
Lucida, Salviteflora, and Speciosa.
