Mangel-Wurzei ar)d Sugar Beets. 
LARGELY GROWN FOR FEEDING STOCK- 
Five or six pounds will sow one acre. The seed should be planted in rows 2 feet apart and thinned 
to 8 inches in the rows. To obtain the best results from tins crop, use deep ^ 
soil, well plowed ; if the soil is thin, a liberal application of an honest " 
chemical fertilizer is necessary. The value of beets for stock feeding cannot 
be overestimated. The results from their use are clearly shown in the/ 
improved breadth and condition of animals, the increased yield of milk in 
cows, and the great saving of hay. They can be raised at a very trifling cost, 
and yield immensely. 
m- A liberal deduction allowed for anantltles over S ponnds. 
If ordered toy mall, add 8 cents per pound for jtoatsigc.
