BEEZTS FOR STOCK. 



sow 4 POUXDS TO THE ACRE. 



STOCK BEETS grow larger than other Beets, and hence re- 

 quire more room. They should be sown from April to June, 

 in drills 2!4 feet apart, and the plants thinned to 12 to 15 

 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 cQ«-dition of the stock. It supplies good, rich food for cattle j 

 Iduriiig the winter.
