important con growing rhubarb in winter months it is interesting to know that a sup ply of fresh rhubarb stalks may be made available from january to the following spring by forcing in the cellar for fresh growth during the winter months the procedure is ex plained in a circular issued by the dominion department or agriculture a few good sized crowns or pieces cut oft the plants in the garden will furnish enough forced stalks for a family as the crowns or plants from which the stalks are to be forced have received the necessary nourishment during the season it is not necessary to plant them in soil in the cejar although this may be found the most convenient material in which to put the plants as the roots must be kept moist for best results the roots are dug up just beore winter sets in and before being put in the cellar they ore left out to freeze solidly an exposure to frost from ten days to two weeks is desirable as roots force more quickly afterwards if they have been frozen next the plants are set close together in the cellar either in boxes or on the taor they may remain in total or almost total darkness while being forced bj without light the colour of the rhu barb is a very attractive shade of pinkish red the one lot of plants will continue to throw up stalks for six weeks or two months or until the roots are j exhausted to ensure a continuous supply some roots may be kept frozen and not put in the warm cellar until stalks from the first lot are ready for use the temperature in the cellar should not be high between50 to 60 degrees fahrenheit is a good range and rhubarb will force at even lower temperature though more slowly beautifying weeds cultivating weeds for their btuty and marketable value seems a defln tte departure from the classifies ion which man
