Speaking OF plants that may be Gull
tivated with little trouble and with

Green's Fruit Grower advises those

considers it one OF the most remuner-

it requires very little care.
The roots OF this plant sold fifteen
years ago at 80 cents a pound. The
price has steadily advanced. The root
is now worth $3.50 a pound, and the
dry leaves and stems now sell for rs
cents a pouEd. 1t is one of the most
widely used drugs known to the mod
