Seneca Root.

This article is used in this country and
Europe very extensively. There is but
a small quantity of Southern root pro.
duced. The large crop is in the North.
west. 1t is dug principally in Northern
Minnesota and the northern part of North
Dakota, also in Manitoba. In Manitoba
the principal section is commencing say,
about at Berson, and running in a north
westernly direction to Edmonton. The
way to handle it after digging is to wash
it clean, remove the tops, and thoroughly
dry it The Indians and half-breeds dig
a great deal as we'll as the white people.
At the present time there are a few large
lots of old loot held by spectators at
high prices; some Of it 2 and 3 years old.
These spectators do not want to sell ex-
cept at high prices because including the
interest, storage and shrinkage, it costs
them high. Other dealers have none
with which to supply their trade, except
the new root they are receiving. 1t is
worth. laid down in Minneapolis, 2IH c.
for the poor roo up to 22H c. for the best
root. This nets nearly 2oc. at the
farthest points of digging, and more than
this at the nearer points where the freight
is less. If there should be any change
in price either way, prices will 60 higher
because it rarely ever sells for any length
of time at less than the present prices.
As there is a cash market for this root
at all times and an unlimited demand,
whatever money it sell for brings that
much more money into the county that
otherwise would not be received.
Dig all you can early in the season to
help supply the demand. The principal
markets for this root are Minneapolis,
Mimi, and Winnipeg, Manitoba, and
from there it is distributed all wei the
world. The general store-keepers
generally handle it in the interior places.
