Root Crops

ANOON AIOpN
 Many of our soldiers in the late World war while in France, Bel glum and Germany, were impressed by the enormous quantities of root crops grown in those countries. In those countries such crops must De harvested in the fall and put away in cellars to be available as food for man or beast during the long winter months. The work and expense at tending the conservation of the crop is enormous, yet they consider their economic value worth while. Think of how easy similar crops may be grown III the south. without the ne- eessity of providing any shelter or even harvesting, except as may be needed from time to time for man and beast. Still the people of the south do not seem to consider such crops of any particular importance. That's one of the serious faults with our people. Just because nature has been so hounteous to us In soil and climate, We should not fail to take advantage of O many opportuni- ties 1t will soon be time to begin planting fall root crops, such as tur- nips, ruta baga, carrots, parsnips, beets and salsify. Let every garde- ner set aside portion of the garden plot for those rooot crops that he Is fond of.
