For the successful cultivation of this root the soil should be light (sandy soil is best) 

 and deeply tilled. For an early crop the seed should be sown as early as the ground 

 can be properly worked. For later crops it may be sown any time until about the mid- 

 of June. Sow m rows about 15 inches 



die 



apart. The seed can be best sown by mixing 

 it in moist sand. Keep down weeds. Thin 

 out young plants as soon as they can be han- 

 dled, leaving them about four inches apart.
