TURNIP. 



Navet. Nabo. 9iiibe. 

 Culture.— For early Turnips sow as soon as ground opens in spring. Nos. 1767 to 1774 should be sown 



from anytime 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 (particularly 

 of the Ruta-Bagas) by cultivating in drills 18 inches apart, and thinning to 

 6 inches in the drill. Sow in drills one pound to the acre ; broadcast, two 

 to three pounds to the acre.
