Democrat Watdpan Bellefonte, Pa., February 13, 1903 The Culture of Ginseng. The Result of an interesting Experiment Carried on by Prof Geo. C. Butz, Horticulturist at The Pennsylvania State College. The cultivation of American ginseng is attracting the attention of many farmers who have facilities for growing a small bed of the plants on trial. Dealers in seeds and young plants are freely advertising that immense profits may be made by the cultivation of ginseng, and speculators are allured by seductive arguments to purchase seeds and plants in the bope of some day reaping the profits. The supply of the native root is continually diminishing and the price per pound is correspondingly in- creasing, while the constant demand for the drug in China apparently stands as a guarantee of a steady market for ginseng in the future. An investigation of the ginseng business in Pennsylvania in 1897 and suhsequent correspondence with ginseng growers re- vealed the fact that many difficulties were encountered and that the failures in cul- ture of this special crop are more numerous than the successes. For the purpose of determining by experience what difficul- ties may arise, the experiment affording the data for this bulletin was inaugurated in October, 1897. The general plan in starting these ginseng beds was to test the relative value of, first, the small roots obtained from the wild when collecting the native roots ; second, the two-year-old seedings from a dealer in cultivated plants ; third, the seed which had been properly stratified for a year, and fourth, fresh seed planted as soon as gath- ered from native or cultivated plants. To test the four different ways, roots native and cultivated, and seeds stratified and fresh were procured. The native roots were small. No effort was made to select them with any dis- crimination except to make sure that a good bed and sufficient roots to insure growth were possessed by each plant. The native roots were of many shapes and bore the darker color and wrinkles of roots which had developed under unfavorable circumstances. The annual scars appear- ing upon these plants numbered from three to fifteen per plant, showing that some of these plants were as much as fifteen years old. The cultivated roots were an excellent lot of plants—two-year-old seedlings—ob- tained from George Stanton, a successful grower of ginseng, near Summit Station, Onondaga county, N. Y. These roots fur- nished a remarkable contrast in comparison with the native roots. The former were long, slender, plump, white roots, resemb- ling young parsnips. Being taken from seed beds of deeply prepared soil, the roots with their unbroken rootlets measured from 4 to 7 inches in length. On the oth- er hand, the native roots, having grown in firm soil, usually lost a large part of their rootlets, much to the injury of the plants for transplanting purposes. The stratified seeds were of the crop of 1896, preserved by stratification with moist. finely sifted woods soil. The fresh seeds had been removed from the berry pulp,and to prevent drying were also stratified and kept thus until the soil was ready for plant- ing. Ginseng seed will not germinate until it has been kept eighteen months after mataring, and daring this time it must not be allowed to become dry. An important factor in the successful culture of ginseng is the soil. This should be a light, friable loam, rich in vegetable mold and possessing good drainage. The choice should not fall upon a clay soil or a heavy clay loam. This consideration developed the first obstacle in the begin- ning of this experiment, for the only soil within easy reach of the station is ‘a heavy olay loam. Gingeng has not heen found growing in this yegion within a radius of twenty miles, and it was a question wheth- er any good could:come from an experiment in such soil conflitions as these. How- ever, it was determined to make the best of the clay loam soil. The site chosen is along the northeast side of an old orchaid, near enough to the apple trees to be partial- ly shaded from the warm sun after mid- day. In preparing the soil, everything was done to improve its condition. A covering of two or three inches of good woods carth was spread over the entire surface, and was then thoroughly incorporated with ic by spading ten inches deep. All roots of the apple trees encountered while spading were removed and all stones were thrown out. Is should be stated tbat the plot of ground bad been under cultivation for a consider- able term of years,and had been occasional- ly enriched with barnyard manure. Sawm- mer tillage kept the surface broken, so that there were no grass roots to contend with at time of planting, or in the aftei- calture of the ginseng. The roots aud seeds were all planted on October 9th, 1897. The roots were plant- ed eight inches apart each way. For this work a planter’s dibble, ten inches long, was used ; a hole was made deep enough to admit the longest root without bending. ‘This is an important matter to insure the «development of straight 10ots for the harv- «sti, The top of the root or ‘bud’ was two inches below the sniface of the ground. “The after-growth of these plauts was such ‘that eight inches of space was not too much for® cultivated plants ; six inches would «crowd somewhat, though the development of roots would not be seriously interfered with. It is certain that a dis:tance of four inches, sometimes recommended for plant- 1g, is voo close for plants in 1ich soil. The seeds were planted in shallow drills, dropping them one inch apart and cover- ing with an inch of fine soil. By the middle of November the entire bed was mulched with a good covering of forest leaves and brusb. This mulch was removed the following April, to permit the sun to warm up the goil. The first appear- ance of growth in the spring was recorded April 25th, 1898, when the heads of the cultivated plants began to break through the ground ; the seedlings followed April 28h, and the sluggish native plants on May 1st. ; A few roots grown in pots in the green- bouse for study showed a considerable development of new fibrous roots all along the old root, and even upon the short stem under the growing bud. ~The shade afforded by the fruit trees near the plot was not considered sufficient. Therefore a lattice was constructed over the beds. Eight uprights made of 2x4 ch hemlock scantling were planted, four on either side of the plot, two feet in the ground and six feet above it. These were joined by cross-bars of 1x3 inch stuff, The cross-bars were stiffened with braces at the sides. The top of this frame was covered with lath screens. Lath one inch or less apart were also nailed against the sides wd'ends from the ground to a beight of shree feet, and on account of the nearness to poultry, wire netting was tacked upon the remaining three feet of sides and ends, to exclude them. The care of ginseng after it is planted and shaded is exceedingly light and simple. As already stated, the beds were mulched at the approach of winter, and this mulch was removed in the spring. About three times during the year weeds were hoed out and the surface soil broken up.’ When the seed was ripe it was harvested and stratified. A record was kept of the growing plants to show the. losses which occur from time to time. The cultivated plants made ex- cellent growth, but the native plants and the seedlings were very uneven.

There was a small crop of seed in the season of 1898, but no record was made of it. The number of seeds per seed-bearing plant in 1902 averaged 55 on cultivated plants, 17 on native plants and 30 on seed- ling plants. The entire planting of 1897 was taken up on October 22nd, 1902. The roots were dug with great care to avoid breakage. After weighing the several lots, all the rootlets under the thickness of a slate- pencil, which it is known would dry into mere brittle hairs, were removed and the trimmed roots were then washed clean, again. The selected roots are those which were chosen for drying and marketing, rejecting those which were under one-half inch in diameter. These latter roots were re- planted for a future harvest. The caulti- vated roots in every way far excelled all the others. The largest root of each lot when trimmed and washed weighed as follows : seedling, 3 ounces; native, 2 ounces ; and cultivated, 5 ounces. This last magnificent root was seven and one- half inches long when trimmed and meas- ured five inches in circamference. The loss of weight on account of rootlets is calculated from above figures to be : 12.81 per cent for the cultivated root, 14.75 per cent for the native root, and 13.54 per cent for the seedling root. Roots in drying lose about two-thirds of their weight. Cultivated roots lose less than native roots. Drying is usually done by spreading the roots on trays or tables in the suu. This method will require six to eight weeks. A quicker and better method is to use artificial heat and subject the roots to a temperature of 100 to 120 degress Fahrenheit. This mecshod was used in drying all the roots of this experi- ment, using the heat from a steam radiator. In niveteen days the roots, even the larg- est, were as ‘‘dry as a bone,’’ and ready to be packed away. The drying could have been dove in fourteen days if aun oven, through which the warm air could pass over the roots, had been employed. The 106 cultivated roots weighed fresh, when trimmed, 200 75 ounces ; when dry 74.5 ounces, or 37.1 per cent. The weight of thirty-six native roots was 39 ounces, and when dry 13.5 ounces, or 34.62 per cent. The profitableness of growing such a crop could not be estimated until the 100t was marketed and the proceeds noted. The root was sent to Samuel Wells & Co., Cincinnati, Ohio, a long-established firm dealing extensively in ginseng, who, after seeing it, wrote as follows: ‘‘Enclosed find statement for your ginseng. . . . . Your cultivated root is very handsome, and the large, smooth, heavy, white, dense- fibred root is the ideal sought. . . . . . Root averaging up to your cultivated lot would be ured without sorting."’ Their price offered, was : 5 1-16 ponnds cultivated root, at $8.50 per POUR: - curessinesratan ans entnesnrsssunsimt ssn nessa 13-16 pound native root, A $47 90 This offer was accepted and the price was paid. Estimates of profits from crops, based upon the experience of a very limited area are as a rnle not very reliable. Much of the literature on ginseng, being dissemi- nated to induce speculators to go into givseng culture, promises such returns as few, if any, will ever realize. The meth- od~ set forth for calculating profits, are faulty, and ave intended to secure pur- chasers for <eeds, plants or capital stock rather than to benefit the grower. In our experiment 138 plants occupied 1-580 part of an acre, counting in a proper share of the walk space. To plant an acre thus would require 80,040 plants. In vari- ous ways, through losses and the rejection of small roots, the number of roots actually marketed was 23 per cent less than the number planted. The experimental plot having yielded five pounds of dry root, an acre, under equally good conditions, should yield 580 times five pounds, or 2,900 pounds. The cost of labor and materials will vary greatly, according to local conditions.

Dogs and cats, if allowed'so run over the beds, may break down or dig out some plants. Chickens and turkeys eas the ripe berries and are fond of scratching in the rich loose soil. Moles and field mice are a nuisance in the seed-beds and should be trapped or killed with poisoned bait. No particular species of insects are known to injure ginseng. Maggots or larvee of a fly have been found about decaying roots, but they are not the cause of the rot. The most serions loss may be caused hy a fangus ur several fungi usually present in wood soii. In consequence, a disease known as the ‘‘damping off’ of seedlings, and cuttings speedily attacks young gin- seng plauts at the surface of the soil, caus- ing the stem to become soft and shrivel in a very short time. This disease was found in some ginseng seedlings sent by Mr. N. B. Curstead, Olyphant Farnace, Pa., in 1898. This fungus extends rapidly from plant to plant when they stand closely and in a sin- gle night may mow down and area of two or more square fees. The only treatment that can be recommended is to scatter hot saud over the area of the disease to kill the fungus, or to remove the neighboring heal- thy plants at once, take up an inch of the infected soil and replace it with new soil. Another enemy likely to do damage is a microscopic worm known as a nematode worm. Such worms are often found in the soils used for seed-beds, and they are very numerous where favorable food is found. They attack young ginseng plants at the root, causing them to shrivel or turn black or brown. Upon asmall plant may be found from fifteen to twenty of these minute ene- mies,but only with the aid of a microscope. Soils infested with such animal life should be baked or sterilized with live steam be- fore using for delicate plants. A Hero at Fourteen. How Earl Gulick Won the Gold Medal of a Life Saving Society. When Andrew Carnegie presented the gold medal of the United States volunteer life saving corps to Earl Gulick, a fourteen- year-old boy, in Carnegie hall, New York, in the presence of 5,000 persons a few days ago, he introduced the blushing lad as a “hero of the higher civilization of to-day.”’ ‘‘A strange kind of hero,’’ said Mr. Car- negie. ‘indeed would he be to our ances- tors, for he has never killed anybody. He has only at fourteen years of age saved a man of thirty from drowning. That’s all. ‘What is he compared to the slayer of thou- sands ?’ inquires the barbaric past, which hailed not the man who had served or saved bis fellows as a hero. The civilized future is to hail none other. So moves the world to higher ideals.”’ Earl Gulick had previously won fame as a sweet singer. He is known by the title of ‘The American Nightingale.”” He has sang in wany of the big cities of the coun- try in concerts, in which he has scored al- most unprecedented success. Musical critics have nunited in conferring the most nnstinted praises upon his technical ability as well as the wonderful sweetness of his rich soprano voice. The deed which the gold medal of the life savifg society commemorated was per- formed last summer. Young Gulick, who is a member of the boy’s department of the society 10 New York, was spending his va- cation at Freeport, on Long Island. One day James Lawless, a man thirty years of age, was swimming in Rutledge channel at that place, when he became exhausted and called for help. Earl happened to be near- by and at once went to his assistance. It proved a difficult feat for the hoy, but he finally succeeded in bringing Lawless to safety, though in an unconscious condition. On investigating the facts the society award- ed him the gold medal. That the feat called for the highest exhi- bition of skill and courage is apparent. It is extremely difficult for even astrong man who is also an expert swimmer, tohandlea drowning man. In numberless instances would be rescuers have met death in the grasp of those whom they try to succor. This fact was recognized by the life saving society, which only awards its gold medals for the noblest display of courage in saving human life. Notes from The Pennsylvania State College. Mrs. Isabel Beecher gave a recital in the College chapel Jan. 31st.- All of her work was very much appreciated. Her rendering of ‘‘A Man Without a Country’’ was espe- cially fine. In order to express a little of the feeling of relief which comes when examinations are over, the students held a ‘‘stag’’ dauce in the Armory Friday evening, Jan. 30th.

Members of the Women’s Christian Tem peravece Union of Philadelphia added their protest Thursday to those already filed to the Legislature against the passage of the bill to permit liquor selling in Fairmount Park. Mrs. A. C. Peacock presented a res- olution at the semi-annual conference, held in the Wharton Street Methodist Church, whieh was carried unavimouslyv. It assert- "| ed “‘that our beautifal park would he chang- ed from an orderly, safe place for women, children and respectable citizens to a resort where the dissolute and intemperate would menace the entire community.” We -de- plore such attempted vicious !egislation. A petition now in ciremnlation in Ger- mantown is receiving many signatures of those opposed to a Park licensescheme and '| it will be forwarded to the Governor and members of the legislative committee hav- ing she Park bill in charge. A largely at- tended meeting of business men was held Monday evening at which Dr. Harry Mans field, Dr. Naman Keyser and John J. Ken- nv were appointed to draft’ the petition. Members of Prospect Section, No. 63, Sons of Temperance, have taken similar action. ‘Judge Breggy was commended at the Women’s Temperance Union meeting for his recent utterance regarding indecent theatrical posters, and in another resolution the nnion protests against the bill aff-eting the Sunday closing law. Miss M. J. Bark described the prevalency of policy playing throughout the city and said : “I know women very prominent in the church, who rent their houses for policy shops.”’ Choking Restored Sight. Recovery of Vision Lost Thirty-Seven Vears Ago. Blind for thirty-seven years in the left eye. Emil Fradeneck, of Bethlehem. found three days after having bad a narrow escape from being choked to death by a shirt sleeve catching in cogwheels at the Beth- lehem Silk Mill thas he could see from the optic. . The sight, surgeons say, was restored by congestion of the blood vessels. Fraden- eck’s eyes were almost bulged from their sockets by the accident. Phyericians have hopes that he will now retain his sight. Scolding. Yes, I know you are tired and worried, and your nerves are ‘‘like needle points,” but do try not toscold. It don’t help mat- ters in the least, and you do feel so self- condemned after it is all over. If only we could go away, by ourselves, when we feel the ‘scold fever’’ coming on us, how much better it would be for all concerned. And if only ‘‘the family’”’ would understand, and take no notice of it, until you could get yourself together again. But they are human, too, and add fuel to the flame by losing their temper, and blaming it all on- you—poor dear ! Bat for the children’s sake, don’t scold. They often learn to take pleasnre in fret- ting you, because of the continual fault- finding and fretting; and as they are al- ways getting the blame of wrong doing whether they deserve it or not, they grow callous and unamiable, and lose all ambi- tion to please or help one who is so unlove- ly, and it is the greatest misfortune that could befall you. Whatever happens, try hard not to scold. MYSTERIOUS CIRCUMSTANCE.—One was pale and sallow and the other fresh and rosy. Whence the difference?

At times the lameness was so acute I could lift nothing aud if I stooped it was impossible for me to straighten. Whendriving there was steady aching over my kidneys the whole time and [ had a dull, tired feeling which took away all my ambition. I procured Doan’s Kidney Pills from F. Potts Green’s drug store and they soon cured me from the whole combination of troubles and they did it quickly and thoroughly. “My wife was also suftering from a tired grinding backache and she used Doan’s Kidney Pills and they invigorated her generally.
