RUTABAGAS OR SWEDES 
Rutabagas require about four weeks longer to mature than 
ordinary varieties of turnips, but are more solid, of firmer 
flesh and therefore keep later into the spring. They are for 
this reason more desirable for storage, while turnips are 
better adapted for the early market. Sow during July either 
in drills or broadcast. 
Neckless Purple Top Our superb strain of this 
excellent variety has _ be- 
come a favorite because of its hardy and productive nature.

1 oz. to 150 feet of drill: 1 lb. per acre. 
Being primarily a cool weather vegetable, turnips thrive best when planted 
in early spring or in the fall. For spring crop sow the seed early in April, while 
for fall and winter use, plantings should be made from July to August. Sow in 
rows not less than 18 inches apart and one-half to three-quarters of an inch 
deep. A very popular method, however, is to broadcast the seed between rows 
of corn or in the cultivated orchard. Proper control of root maggots 
is effected by rotation of crops, the use of commercial fertilizers in- 
stead of manure and the application of Mag-o-tite or other carbolic 
acid emulsion.
