Salsify, A Toothsome Yet Underused Garden Plant
The Prairie Farmer notes salsify as a delicious biennial like beet carrot and parsnip. It needs protection in winter to prevent crown rot, but can naturalize in eastern states and Iowa. Roots reach up to 12 inches, with plumed seeds spreading by wind, and winter storage is best in sand or earth in a cellar.

Outlook for Hogs Brighter for Farmers and Markets
Farmers can expect rising pork prices as hog numbers grow with clover pastures and coral feed. A May pig weighing 75 to 100 pounds may double by fall with clover and corn mixed, with clover pastures supporting eight to ten hogs per acre. Increased demand from population growth and open foreign markets further boost pork profitability, aided by abundant corn and grain crops this year.
