Mangel -Wurzel and Sugar Beet 



Sow early in spring in deep, rich soil, in rows 18 to 24 inches apart. 



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



For feeding stock few crops equal Mang-el-Wurzel and Sugar Beets. Canadian farm- 

 ers 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. 



Mangel-Wurzel are also very nutritious and yield very heavy crops, often exceeding 

 1,500 bushels to the acre. It is not unusual to grow roots weighing upward of 20 lbs. 

 each on fairly rich soil. 



Prepare the ground thoroughly, using a liberal supply of barnyard manure, previous 

 to sowing the seed.
