TURNIP 
HOW TO GROW THEM—To have 
Turnips early, sow seed in early spring; 
for winter crop, sow in July and August. 
Sow alone or in corn fields at last cultiva¬ 
tion of the corn. Do not sow too thick; in 
small gardens thin plants to 4 inches apart. 
Do not make soil too rich. Where chicken 
manure or heavy applications of stable 
manure have been used, it has caused the 
growth principally of foliage with only a 
small thin root instead of the heavy globe 
root and medium foliage it naturally should 
produce. One ounce of seed will sow a row 
^ 200 feet long; 2 pounds to the acre 
Swiss Chard, Lucullus (Ligh G^In? wish 
One ounce sows 50 feet of row; 7 lbs. an acre. More of it is being 
grown every year as more persons learn how delicious it is. The 
leaves are cooked as a salad or like spinach. The midrib is also fine 
when prepared like asparagus. If you have not already 
grown it, be sure to try it this year. Pkt. 5 cts.; oz. 15
