TURNIP 
Navet. 
Nabo. 
Niibe. 
One ounce will sow 159 feet of row; 2 pounds is required for one acre. 
Turnips do best in a rich and mellow soil. Commence sowing the early varieties as soon as the ground can be worked, in drills from 
12 to 18 inches apart and 1% inch deep. 
When the plants are a few inches in height, and strong enough to resist the attacks of insects, 
thin out to some 5 or 6 inches apart in the drills. Rutabagas should be sown in June, the rows being about 18 inches apart, and the plants 
in the rows thinned to not less than 10 inches. 
If to be forwarded by mail, add at the rate of 6c. per pound for postage.
