5 Ibs. to the acre in drills 2 feet apart. Thin out to 9 inches apart in the row.

farmers appear to appreciate this more than we do. The roots are stored in barns 
or pits before hard frost sets in and fed during the winter months. 
The Giant Half-Sugar Beets are much more productive than the Sugar Beets 
and fully equal to the best of them in feeding qualities. A large portion of the 
root being above ground renders them easy to handle. Every stockman should give 
them a trial.

ing 1,500 bushels to the acre. It is not unusual to grow roots weighing upward of 20 
Ibs. each on fairly rich soil. 
Prepare the ground thoroughly, using a liberal supply of barnyard manure, pre- 
vious to sowing the seed.
