LIST OF TESTED GARDEN SEEDS FOR 1922. 
BEETS 
Culture—Where a variety and choice of soil is at command, select that which is rather light for this crop. It must, how- 
ever, be thoroughly enriched. As early in the spring as the ground can be properly cultivated, lay out the drills for the seed 
about a foot apart. Sow the seed thinly, covering to a depth of 1 inch; when large enough to handle, thin out the plants to 
about 6 inches apart. The plants pulled up may easily be transplanted elsewhere, avoiding loss.
