TURNIP FOR FRAMEWORK AND EARLY USE 
Comparative Tests of Turnips in our Trial Grounds 
Carter’s Early Long Forcing (see Photograph). — Quite a distinct Turnip for Frame or Outdoor work. 
Pure white flesh, and of most delicate flavour. It matures very rapidly, and is fit for table sooner 
than any other Turnip. Included in the Large Gold Medal Exhibit, Shrewsbury, 1912. Award 
of Merit, Royal Horticultural Society, for roots sown in cold frame March 6th and exhibited May 8th. 
Price, .15 per pkt.; .20 per oz.; .45 per 34 lb.; 1.50 per lb. 
The Cultivation of Turnip. — Sow Carter’s Little Marvel or Carter’s Jersey Lily for early use the first week in March on 
a gentle hotbed under glass, and later in a warm situation in the open ground. For main succession crops, sow every three 
weeks in the open ground until the beginning of July. Turnips for winter use must be planted during August and early 
in September, sowing the seed in rows about IS inches apart and thinning the plants to 3 or 4 inches apart. The Ruta 
Baga sorts should be sown from the 15th of June until late in July. One ounce will sow 150 feet of drill; 2 pounds will 
sow an acre in drills.
