Chinese Esteem Ginseng When a product has no market value for fo^B, medicine, or other use in this country it is surprising to find it representing an export value of more than $2,000,000 a year, with an established market extending back more than half a century. Ginseng is such a product. American medical authorities have never "recognized it as having curative value, but for more than a hundred years its root has been highly esteemed by the Chinese, and the 1919 shipments of 282,000 pounds sold at from $3 to $23 a pound. American cinsenc was taken to Chi na by early traders, and formed the principal part of the carro taken by the first American ship that visited China. This ship the Empress of China, sailed from New York for the Celestial Empire on February 22, 1784. Decrease in the available quantity of wild ginseng has led many American farmers and gardeners to undertake the domestic culture of ginseng, and the United States Department of Agriculture has issued a nev.bulletin, Farmers Bulletin No. 1184, outlining the best methods of culture. The department previously issued Farmers' Bulletin No. 736 on diseases rvvvvvvvvvw* W IT 8 Great!
