MANGEL WURZEL 
For Stock Feeding 
Mangel Wurzel, also called Mangel or Stock Beet, has become a very popular crop as the 
roots give an immense yield of valuable food at small cost for cattle, hogs, sheep and poultry. 
They excel as a Winter feed, as they keep all stock in a healthy condition, increase the yield 
of milk, and save in fodder. In feeding, they should be sliced, and are even better if steamed 
and mixed with bran. Plant early in the Spring in drills 2/i feet apart, covering the seed V/l 
inches with fine soil, firmly pressed down. Cultivate frequently, and when 3 inches high, thin 
out to stand 8 inches apart.
