CULTURE— Ruta 
Baga seed shoiilrl ha so^vTl 
three or four weeks earlier than 
that of the table vanetit^ of tur- 
nips. The ground should be en- 
riched with well-rotted manure 
and the peed sown in drills 214 
inches apart and thinned out to 
six or eight inches in the rows. 
When the roots have fully matured 
and before severe weather sets in, pull, cut off the tops 
and store them in a root-cellar or pit. In some sections 
the seed is sown broad-c^st and the Riita Bagas arc allowed to take their chan. 
cee with the weeds, but this methofi is seldom successful except on nt'w clearing-

The Best Stock Feeding Carrots. 
Sow from 3 to 4 pounds to acre. 
Excellent feed for stock and extensively grown for this purpose. 
Horses relish and fatten on them and keep in healthier condition. 
One of the largest raisers of thoroughbred stock in the West says : "I consider Carrots indispensable, and no one 
who raises cattle can afford to be without them." 
CULTURE— For field culture, seed should be sown in drills 3 to 3% feet apart, so as to cnltivat<3 by horses. They 
succeed best in a good light .soil, well enriched by manure. The seed should l>e covered about one inch deep, 
and be sure and see that the soil is well firmed above the sce<l.
