SUPERIOR VEGETABLE SEEDS 
Turnip 
, 1 oz. to 150 ft, 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 POp- 
ular method, however, is to broadcast the seed between 
rows of corn or in the cultivated orchard. Proper con- 
trol of root maggots is effected by rotation of crops, the 
use of commercial fertilizers instead of manure and the 
application of Mag-o-tite or other carbolic acid emulsion.

They are for this reason more desirable for storage, while turnips are better adapted
