Turnips do best in new ground. 
When the soil has been worked long, 
it should receive a top dressing of 
land-plaster or ashes. If stable man¬ 
ure is used the ground should be man¬ 
ured the spring previous to sowing, so 
it may be well incorporated with the 
soil. When fresh manure is used the 
turnips are apt to become speckled. 
Sow from end of July till October for 
fall and winter, aud in January, Feb¬ 
ruary and March for spring and sum¬ 
mer use. They are generally sown 
broad-cast, but the Buta Baga should 
be sown in drills, or rather ridges, and 
should not be sown later than the 
end of August; the Golden Ball and 
Aberdeen, not later than the end of 
September. The White Flat Dutch, 
Early Spring and Pomerian Globe 
are best for spring, but also good for 
autumn.
