Mushroom Days In Our Midst:
Early Morning Trips In Order

Mushroom days are here and lovers
OF the succulent fungus in and around
Richmond are alive to the fact that an
early morning trip into the wood. or
even the field that has decaying tree,
will get them many of the "mushe-
rooms" that are good to eat in many
waye besides as a smother for porter
house steak. Lots of people call
them musheroons without knowledge

old English word three hundred years
ago was muscheron. from old French
mouscheron whose root was mousse
moss.
But more interesting than the name
and it's origin is the fact that the
mushroom days are here, and the
hunters will be after them often for a
week or two in these parts. There

toad stool. 1t belongs to the same
botanical family-maybe in it's larger
growth it has acquired the poison;
both plants and men are prone to lose
health by abnormal growth.
Those who know them can distin-
guish easily between the toad stool
and the mushroom, yet yearly there
are serious sicknesses and even deaths
from the mistakes made by picking
the deadly for the edible agaricus

of mushroom and toad stool.
The sponge-shaped mushrooms,
which are the best of all species. are
the kind that are now forcing their
way through the warm earth. Some
people never have any success in
hunting mushrooms. while others
bring them home by the basketful.
The fact is. most people do not know
where to look for the tempting NOR
sells. The best place is around old
rotten stumps. where the soil is very
rich. If there are no old stumps, they
often grow in rich soil where the
leaves have rotted. In some instan-
ces they are found growing where the
grass is the thickest, but the soil is
always black. Where there is one

History, long forgotten: Mushrooms
come up in the night, and yet they
are unsown. and therefore such as are

they are SO delicious to eat, the other
that they come SO hastily. as in a
