THE BEST GARDEN BEETS 



(©atatriiben) 



The soil best suited to the Beet is a deep, light and rich loam. For very early crops, the 

 seed is sown in hotbeds, and the seedlings are transplanted to the open ground. For main 

 crop, the seed is sown outside as soon as the soil is in good condition, in drills from 12 to 15 

 inches apart, and covered about an inch deep ; the plants are thinned to stand 4 or 5 inches 

 apart in the rows. For winter crops, sow seed in June, in drills, as for early Beets. An 

 ounce of seed will sow 50 feet of drill ; five or six pounds an acre,
