Turnips may be sown at all seasons from 
April to August in our climate, although 
those will be the best which are sown very 
early in spring for summer crop, and early in 
August for a fall and winter crop. A light 
soil well manured the previous year is the 
best; no manure should be applied at the 
time of sowing, unless it be well-decom- P«**ple-Top White Globe Turnip, 
posed compost, or the roots would be liable to be bad-flavored. The ground should be dug or ploughed deep and 
made mellow and fine. Sow the seed of the flat sorts broadcast, and rake in evenly. After they are well up, thin to 
six or eight inches apart, and keep them clear from weeds. The Ruta Baga sorts should be sown in drills 15 inches 
apart, and for winter use may be sown from the 20th of June to the middle of July, on land that has been well manured 
for other crops in spring; thin out as for the early crop. One ounce will sow 150 feet drill. Two pounds will sow one 
acre in drills. One pound 7vill sow one acre broadcast.
