Beets are One of the profitable crops for the market grower. 
Easily Grown IT desirable to be very early they may be grown in 
the hotbed and transplanted. Plant as early in the 
spring as the weather will permit. Beets will stand 
light frosts, but care must be taken, as a heavy frost would destroy 
them. The rows should be 16 to 20 inches apart and the seed planted 
from 1 to 1 % inches deep. Thin to 2 to 3 inches apart. Plant some 
thickly for greens. 
There are no better greens 
than small, tender beets (tops 
and all). Table beets may be 
sown at intervals of four 
weeks until the latter part of 
June to have tender, even¬ 
sized beets throughout the 
season from late summer until 
winter, the later planting be¬ 
ing for siloing to use or sell 
during the winter. 
For Hints on Preparing the 
Soil for Planting, see Page 2. 
Plant 1 oz. to 100 feet of 
drill. Ten pounds will sow an 
acre in rows 18 inches apart.

web worm.
