Rutabaga 
Rutabagas are also known as Swedish Turnips, Swedes, or 
Russian Turnips. They have firmer flesh than turnips, how¬ 
ever, are more solid, and hence keep later into spring. Like 
turnips, they are excellent for stock feeding and as a rotation 
crop. Stock thrive and increase in value rapidly when tur- 
nips and rutabagas are fed in liberal quantities, and next to MAMMOTH 
mangels are one of the cheapest feeds on the farm. RUSSIAN 
Salzer’s Rutabaga and Turnip seeds enjoy an enormous sale 
on account of the sweet, juicy product of their crops. It will 
pay you to pay 20o to 50c a pound more for our seed than such 
as you buy in stores. Our seeds produce big crops of fine, 
sweet, juicy, rich Rutabagas.
