GROWTH OF ARTICHOKES.
QUESTION OF REPLANTING. The opinion has been advanced that if an area of artichokes, after being rooted up and eaten by pigs, is closed up again without further treatment, just as good a crop will eventuate the next season, the small portions of roots left in the ground being sufficient to promote, €he growth of the new crop. Two Tatuahui farmers, however, have had experiences quite the reverse to- this. They have, according to advice given them, closed up their artichoke paddocks after the pigs have rooted them up, but the crops the following season were most disappointing.
