GOLDEN TANKARD YEL- 

 LOW - FLESHED MAN- 

 GEL.— This distinct vari- 

 ety is a most important ad- 

 dition to our list of roots 

 for stock feeding, as it con- 

 tains less water and more 

 sugar than any other Man- 

 gel. A special feature is 

 the rich, deep yellow color 

 of the flesh, nutritious and 

 milk producing qualities. In 

 England, where it Is con- 

 sidered indispensable for 

 farming, large dairy farm- 

 ers state that they are not 

 only able to obtain a high- 

 er price per gallon for milk 

 from cows fed on this Man- 

 gel, but also that the cows 

 are in much better condi- 

 tion.

 Cabbage family /^

 miniature heads from ,t^, ,

 delicacy, boiled in the same way 

 as Cauliflower. Seed should be 

 sown about the middle of May, 

 in a seed bed, and the plants 

 afterwards set in rows 2 feet 

 apart, and cultivated like Cab- 

 bage. This vegetable does not 

 require extremely high cultiva- 

 tion, however. It is ready for 

 use late in Autumn, after the 

 early frosts.
