Turnip. 



For early use, sow the small sorts as soon as 

 the ground can be worked in the spring, in drills 

 fourteen inches apart, the Rutabagas thirty inches. 

 As the seed is very fine, it should hi covered but 

 slightly, excepting in very dry weather. Select 

 light, and, if possible, new soil, and manure with 

 plaster and ashes or phosphates. Should the 

 young plants be troubled with insects, a sprinkling 

 of slug shot will be beneficial. For fall and winter 

 use, the early kinds should be sown from the mid- 

 dle of July to the middle of August, and the Ruta- 

 bagas from the middle of June to first of July, using 

 from one to one and a half pounds of seed to the 

 acre.
