The I eatable portion is the fleshy part of I the calyx, Che bottom or basin of the blossom and the true base of the ' leaves of the flower. I The flesh of the artichoke corre-' sponds closely to that which the old world folks call the cheese of the thistle. On the Continent, in Eu ropc, the artichoke is frequently served raw as ,a salad with either French or Parisian dressing. Under ordinary circumstances the fruit as prepared for maiket will keep several weeks. The canned artichoke, which was imported quite extensively before the war, con sisted of the fronds and bottoms. Jt came in large quantities from both France and Italy. ' The artichoke buds are used ex clusively for garnishing. The Jerusalem Artichoke This kind of artichoke is a tuber of the species' of the sunflower; it resembles somewhat the Irish po tato. It has a sweetish flavor and contains a larger amount of natural water. This species of artichoke is more valuable than tire common artichoke Two principal types of Jerusalem artichoke are: First. Long, with reddish skin. Second. Round, knobby and white in color. On the Continent they are fre quently eaten raw with just a plain seasoning of salt, pepper and vine gar; in fact, much as we eat the American radish. They aje fre quently made into soup. The word Jersualem is a queer cross of dialect from the Italian word Girasole, meaning sunflower.
