HORSERADISH.

Every family garden should have

commonly the plant is set in an

an unsightly nuisance, and a weed
difficult of determination. The
proper way to grow horseradish is
to plant it in the spring, and to
allow IL to remain in the soil but a
single season. Instead of setting
IN poor soil it should have rich
one. The market gardeners plant
