CULTURE. They do best in highly en- 

 riched, light, sandy or gravelly soils. Com- 

 mence sowing the earliest varieties in April 

 in drills from 12 to 15 inches apart, and 

 thin out early to 6 to 9 inches in rows. 

 For a succession sow at intervals of a fort- 

 night until the last week in July, from 

 then until the end of August sowing may 

 be made for the fall and main crop. Tur- 

 nips may be preserved until spring by cut- 

 ting 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 com- 

 paratively hardy, few will survive the win- 

 ters of the Northern States in the open 

 ground.
