THE Swede Turnips, or Rutabagas,

 are of greater value for stock

 farmer and stock raiser should grow 

 Rutabagas and Stock Beets for win- 

 ter feeding.

ASPARAGUS ROOTS. 



A saving of one to two years is 

 effected by planting roots. A bed

 should give a sufficient supply for 

 an ordinary family; 7.260 roots will 

 plant an acre. Select good, loamy 

 soil, plow-deep, put in good quantity 

 of manure and 100 pounds kainit to 

 1000 square feet of bed. Incorporate 

 thoroughly, make a trench 8 inches 

 deep, set plants 9 inches apart. In 

 field culture rows are placed 4 feet 

 apart.
