esculent

Newsom trans-sends the singular self in the American transcendentalist manner—saying, with Walt Whitman, “I find I incorporate gneiss, coal, long-threaded moss, fruits, grains, esculent roots,/ And am stucco’d with quadrupeds and birds all over,/ And have distanced what is behind me for good reasons,/ But call any thing back again when I desire it.”

It suits many of the esculent crops, as onions, beans, cabbages, carrots, beet-root, asparagus, &c.; the quantity applied varies from 5 to 10 bushels per acre.

This has been one of the most remarkable potatoes known in the history of this esculent.

They are among the most popular of old-time remedies for colds, having the advantage of always being readily procured, and it is said that affections of the lungs and liver have been largely benefited, and even cured, by a free use of this palatable esculent.

There is no more delicate and finely-flavored esculent to be found in our markets than the egg plant, when cooked in the right manner.
