WEISSE RUBE (Ger.) 
TURNIPS 
NAVONE (It.) 
One of the easiest crops to grow and profitable for stock feeding and in most cases for markets. 
They cost so little to grow, make splendid nutritious feed and should be more generally used. 
Culture. For early use, sow in March or April either broadcast, or in drills, using preferably 
Milan or Purple Top Strap Leaf or Globe. 
Turnips for main crop are sown from July to September 15th, broadcast 1 y 2 to 2, lbs. per acre. 
An ounce will sow about 300 feet. Turnips for greens can be sown as late as October 1st, and 
require 3 to 4 lbs. per acre. 
349 EARLY PURPLE TOP MILAN. Extra early variety which is very sweet and particu¬ 
larly valuable for sowing in early spring. Roots are medium size, plants purple, top flat. Best 
for private gardens and preferable to grow for early market crop. Fkt., 5c; oz., 15c; Vi lb., 
35c; 1 lb., 85c.

Fkt., 5c; oz., 10c; Vi lb., 25c; 1 lb., 60c. 
Rutabaga or Swedish Turnips 
Rutabagas require longer to mature than the common turnips and should be sown earlier. To get 
heavy crops of large turnips sow the seed June 15 to July 1 in rows 2 to 2% feet apart. Thin the 
plants to a foot apart. Rutabagas make excellent winter feed for sheep. For table use, rutabagas 
can be sown later and will be of better quality, but not as large as when sown early. These turnips 
keep well and may be stored in the cellar in moist sand or in pits for use during the winter. 
358 AMERICAN PURPLE TOP. Our stock of this is extra choice and can be depended on 
by the most critical growers. Rutabaga besides being best food for stock, is the sweetest of all 
Turnips for table use. Fkt., 5c; oz., 10c; Vi lb., 25c; 1 lb., 75c.

finest varieties for home use. It is purplish 
pink in color. Vines vigorous, tall, fairly 
productive. Fruits are very solid and have 
exceptionally few seeds. It is fairly smooth 
for so large a variety and sometimes attains 
such a size that one slice will cover a dinner 
plate. Very free from acid, has few seeds, 
is of delicious flavor and most excellent for 
slicing; ripens about midseason. Most de¬ 
sirable for home use, and the large showy

producing large, very smooth, solid fruit 
slightly flattened, deep red color. It is very
