A Few Flowers Add Greatly to Home Appearances 
31 
Turnips 
For summer use sow early in 
the spring-. Rows 12 to 15 inches 
apart. Plant seed % inch deep. 
Sow for winter use about the 20th 
of July. Do not seed in hot dry 
dusty soil as seed will lose germ¬ 
ination within a few days and 
you will think the seed is no good. 
Better wait until you have plenty 
of moisture or dampen the ground 
and cover with burlap for a few 
days to hold the moisture.

Rutabagas

much larger in size, firmer in flesh and flavor. Better 
adapted for storage use. If kept cool and sufficiently moist 
to prevent wilting they remain in prime condition all winter.
