Turnip. 



Navet. Nabo. Hubert. 

 Culture. — For early Turnips, sow as soon as ground opens in spring. Nos. 1769 to 1774 should be sown 

 from any time in July to first of August; but the other kinds, for winter use, may be sown from middle of 

 July to end of August. Turnips are generally sown broadcast, but much larger crops are obtained (particu- 

 larly of the Ruta-Bagas) by cultivating in drills eighteen inches apart, and thinning to six inches in the drill. 

 Sow one pound to the acre.
