As to the scarcity of the fungus, I can sup post the gatherer's statement. When I met him he was on his way to the market with his half-load, and on getting there the total mom. ing's supply did not.weigh ten stones, And for several days in succession inquiry showed that the country fields continued to give a very dia- appointing yield.

You may pass a patch of ground in a good season, perhaps, and find nothing, but if you come back a little while after you will mayhap pick up enough, to fill your hamper. The kinds of mushrooms we chiefly get around here are the Jocks, or horse-mushroom, the medium pinki, the 'buttons, and the 'smaller, blacks. The Jocks' are the big, broad-canopied mushroom with a black under-surface. They are used for making ketchup. I have picked Jocks' with, a diameter measuring fourteen or sixteen inches, and even bigger specimens have been found. The medium pinks are chofce stuff, and always "sell well if the market isn't overstocked.

They very seldom find their way into the shops; Black's Fine Qld if they do, it is the result of careless picking, and then we hear about it. Poisoning mostly follows where people have picked them who do not know a mushroom when they see one. There are various ways by which you can tell a mushroom. The pink under-surface is a safe guide; you can also peel the rind off a mush room just as you can off a baited beet-root. There is nothing slimy about a true mushroom; which mostly thrives on good pasture land- land that has been grazed by horses, whore droppings seem to act as the best of fertiliser, fadeed, if you grow-mushrooms, borse manure bas to be used in large quantities.
