Big YteId of Ginseng.

NJ. Harrington, a correspondent Of
the Iowa Horticultural Society, related
that from beds of gensing altogether
forty feet long and five feet wide, in
Guiding the path between the beds, he
secured $55 worth of dry roots besides
SIC worth of roots for planting. He
reckons the crop at the rate of $4,000
per acre. He stated that from one-sev-
enth of an acre 81 $50 worth of ginseng
was produced in the preceding year.
Last year he stated the same patch pro-
duced six hundred thousand seeds with
an estimated value of $4,000, or at the
rate of $21 600 per acre. OF course,
with a crop like this, the main diff
Guilty would be to sell the seed at the
estimated price.
