 TfRXIP. 



Cnltnie. They do best in highly enriched. light, sandy or gravelly soils. Commence sowing the earliest varieties in 

 April in drills from U to 15 inches apart, and thin out early to 6 or 9 inches in rows. For a succession sow at intervals 

 of a fortnight until the last week in July, from which until the end of August sowing may be made for the fall and main 

 crop. Turnips may be preserved until spring by cutting off the tops about 1 inch from the bulb, storing in the cellar or 

 cold shed during the winter, covering the roots with dry sand. They should be harvested before the severe frost sets in, 

 for. though comparatively hardy, few will survive the winters of the Northern States in the open ground.

 solely for the seed produced, which is used for flavoring cakes, bread, confectionery, etc. The young 



and leaves of the plants used for flavoring may be gathered in the green state, or in the fall the 

 plant may be pulled up and carefully placed in a dry room, and thus assure a winter's supply.
