GINSENG CuLTIvATIoM.

A GRICULTURAL- JOURNALS have
II begun calling attention in recent
months 10 the cultivation of the gin
seng root. 1t is pointed out that one
man made a profit of So, 600 from

that others may do IS well or better.
We are shown Illustrations setting
forth that ginseng may be raised IN
field and garden and forest and under
glass and that every ounce OF it may
be sold at an enormous profit
The word ginseng" is supposed to be
a corruption Of the Chinese gen
seng." which means king Of plants.
Every bit of the ginseng grown in the
United States is exported 20 China
And in spite OF the liberal profit de-
rived from il. the expectations have
gradually decreased from 6,0O0.000
rounds in 1852 TO 5000 pounds in 1902.
The price. in the meanwhile, has risen
from % cents a pound in 1852 to $3.50
q pound in 1902 Indications are that

demand. Every Chinaman purchases
ginseng. the amount being limited only
by the purse Of the buyer. The rich

with it. while the poor keep a root and
worship it as they would worship an

The Chinese insist that ginseng pos

ailments OF every description. In some
parts of the south ginseng tea is used
in the spring as sassafras tea is used
elsewhere. But careful Investigations
have disclosed the fact that the root
