CULTURK— Turnips do best in a highly enriched, sandy gravelly, 
or light loamy soil. Commence sowing the earliest varieties in 
April, in drills from twelve to fif- 
teen inches apart, and thin out 
early to six or eight inches in the 
rows. For a succession, sow at in- 
tervals of a fortnight, until the last 
week in July, from which time to 
the end of August, sowing may be 
made for the fall and main crops. 
Turnips may be preserved until 
spring, by cutting off the tops 
about an inch from the bulbs, 
and storing m the cellar during 
winter, covering with dry sand : 
or they can be buried outside in 
heaps, covering with straw, and 
twelve to fifteen inches of earth, 
with wisp of straw put at top for 
ventilation. kxtra kari.v mil.w.
