Those requisites can be we'll understood

the roots are started TO grow, or
routing is induced. Heaps that are covered
with straw and then with q coat of earth
are kept best with plenty of straw to ab-
sorb any foul air and protect the roots,
while the quantity of earth in cover may
be limited. A farmer who raised large
quantities of roots was always very
successful with his large heaps of pota-
toes by using o compact foot of straw 10

to hold it down. Ventilating holes at the

They increased the thickness of the foot Of
