when one attempted to pqli up a pliat by tikiug hold close to the ground tbs white hume was perfectly blanched and ot ex cellent quality late in autumn the golden self blanching plmta were packed away in a narrow trench dug as deep as the planta were long many ot them being i feet where the stalks continued blanch ing we are so wellpleased with this method that we shall try it again the com ing
