TURNIPS 



Culture.— For early Turnips, sow as soon as the ground is warm enough in the spring. For winter use, sow from the middle of July 

 to the end of August. The seed is generally sown broadcast, but larger crops are obtained, particularly of the Rutabagas, by cultivating; 

 in drills i8 inches apart and thinning to 6 inches apart in the drills. ^ 



One ounce will sow 150 feet oJ drill; 1 pound of seed to the acre in drills ; 2 to 3 pounds to the acre if sowa broadcast
