TURNIP 
For early, sow as soon as the ground can be prepared, in drills 15 inches apart, and 
thin the plants to stand 8 inches apart. Sow for succession at intervals of two weeks 
until the last week in July, and from that time onward until the last of August sow for 
main crop. The sowings should always be made just before a rain, if possible, as the 
success of the crop depends, in a great measure, upon quick germination and rapid 
growth of the young plants. One oz. to 300 feet of drill; 1 pound to the acre.

TOMATO. 
As the plants advance in growth support them by brushwood. To have the Tomato 
very early it is necessary to start the plants in a hotbed, or they may be reared in a 
flower pot in a window and subsequently transplanted. Plants for an early crop should 
be raised under glass. For intermediate crop they may be raised on outside beds. For 
late crops the seed may be planted in permanent position.
