MANCHESTER; & ALTRINCHAM. 
Turnip, Garden (Brassica rapa). 
Sow at iatervals^from the end of March to the end of July. The earlier crops should be sown on ground that has been dug over and 
manured the previous Autumn. '^ When the plants are well up, thin out to about 7 inches apart. As turnips are fond of phosphates, it 
would be well to apply Clibrans' Phosphate Manure at the rate of i oz. to the running yard, and well raked in about a fortnight before t^ 
seed is sown. In land where the turnip is liable to become clubbed, a dressing of quicklime, at the rate of 2 lbs. to the square yard, should 
be applied in as fresh a state as possible during the Winter.
