The value Of tur- 
nips and rutft-bagas 
for feeding stock 
in fall and winter 
is not fully appre- 
ciated, as they are 
much liked by all 
kinds of stock aniJ 
serve to keep them 
in good condition. 
We earnestly rec- 
ommend that farm- 
ers increase their 
sowings largely 
for we are sure 
the crop will prove 
remunerative. 
This wholesome 
vegetable is very 
easily affected in 
its form and flavor 
by soil, climate and

many varieties, but
