SUGAR BEETS AND MAN 

 GEL WURZEL. 



The following varieties are valuable for stock 

 feeding. We can honestly urge our friends to 

 plant them in quantity; they give immense 

 crops, are easily raised, harvested and kept 

 through the winter. The results from their use 

 are wonderful, and are clearly shown in the 

 improved health and condition of animals, the 

 increased yield of milk in cows, and the great 

 saving in hay and corn. Sow in drills 30 inches 

 apart, on rich, well prepared ground early in 

 spring. Cultivate well and thin to 8 inches in 

 the row. For winter, store in pits or cellar as 

 soon as heavy frost is feared. From four to six 

 pounds will sow an acre.
