ROOTS AND HERBS

For mcclellan purposes. roots and
herbs should be gathered when their
medical properties are at their best.
For instance, roots of annual plants
should be dug just before their flower
ing season, and roots of biennial or
perennial plants after the tops have
dried. All these things are taken into
consideration in gathering the roots
and herbs. many tons of which are
used annually in preparing that most
