PARSNIP. 
German, $ajHnafe. French, Panais. 
The soil most suitable for the Parsnip is a deep, sandy loam, well enriched with 
mauure the year previous ; its cultivation is in all respects similar to the Carrot. 
Seeds should be sown as early in the spring as the ground is in working condition, in 
drills from twelve to fifteen inches apart and about an inch deep. An ounce of seed 
is sufficient to sow 150 feet of drill, and four or five pounds of seed are required to 
sow an acre. When the plants are of sufficient size, thin to five or six inches in 
the row. Pkt. Cts.
