GOLDEN TANKARD MANGOLD. 



Beets for Stock. 



(SOW FOUR POUNDS TO THE ACRE.) 



Mangold Wurzels are grown for stock, 

 and as they grow larger than other Beets require 

 more room. They should be sown from April to 

 June, in drills two and a half feet apart, and the 

 plants thinned to twelve or fifteen inches in the 

 row. The attention of farmers to the growing of 

 Beets for stock feeding has rapidly increased, but 

 it should be grown more generally, and will show 

 the results in the health and condition of the stock. 

 It supplies good rich food for cattle during the 

 winter.

Cabbage. 



(One Ounce of Seed to 100 Yards of Row.) 

 Cabbage will thrive on any good corn land, 

 though the stronger the soil the better they will 

 develop. New land is preferable. Plow deep and 

 manure very liberally, as cabbage is a strong feeder 

 and will repay for the care bestowed upon it. 

 The early sorts bear planting from eighteen inches 

 to two feet apart in the rows, with the rows from 

 two to two and a half feet apart. The larger varie- 

 ties to be from two to four feet apart in the rows, 

 j with the rows from two and a half to four feet 

 I apart, the distance varying with the size. It does 

 not pay to buy cheap Cabbage seed. Ours is 

 American grown, and from the best stock in the 

 country.
