An ounce will sow 200 feet of drill. If sown in drills, 
one pound is required for an acre; if sown broadcast, 
less seed is sufficient if sown evenly. 
Culture. For early, sow seed of flat varieties in open 
ground in spring in drills one foot or more apart, using 
seed sparingly. Thin to 3 or 4 inches apart. For succes¬ 
sion, sow every two weeks until June. For fall and winter, 
sow in July and August. A good crop may often be grown 
by scattering seed thinly in the cornfield at last cultiva¬ 
tion. For Rutabagas, sow seed in seed-bed in spring and 
transplant to good warm soil in rows at least 2 feet apart 
and 8 to 10 inches apart in the rows, or sow in open 
ground during June and early July. Take up roots just 
before winter, top and store in cool cellar, or pit 
outdoors. 
EARLY WHITE MILAN. Roots flat, smooth and sym¬ 
metrical, pure white. Top very small, upright, and 
compact, permitting close planting. The earliest and 
much the best of any extra early white variety. Pkt., 
10c; oz., 20c; V 4 lb., 50c. 
EARLY PURPLE MILAN. Differs from the preceding 
in that the roots are not quite so thick and are purple 
on top. Pkt., 10c; oz., 20c; V 4 lb., 50c. 
EARLY PURPLE-TOP FLAT. A well-known variety and 
very extensively grown. Roots smooth, white, with the 
upper portion purplish red. Pkt., 10c; oz., 15c; V 4 
lb., 25c; lb., 75c. 
EARLY PURPLE-TOP WHITE GLOBE. One of the hand¬ 
somest varieties, the upper portions of the root being 
a purplish red, the lower pure white. A rapid grower, 
attaining a marketable size sooner than other large 
globular varieties. Of the best quality and an excel¬ 
lent keeper. Pkt., 10c; oz., 15c; V 4 lb., 35c; lb., 
$ 1 . 00 . 
Swedish, Russian or Rutabaga 
SWEET RUSSIAN. An old variety, yet largely grown, 
mainly for table use. Sweet and mild. Pkt., 10c; oz.! 
15c; V 4 lb., 35c; lb., 90c. 
WHITE FRENCH, or ROCK. Also an old and popular 
sort. Roots a little longer than Sweet Russian, but 
does not otherwise differ. Valuable for table or feed¬ 
ing. Pkt., 10c; oz., 15c; 1/4 lb., 35c; lb., 90c.

at top; medium size, tender, mild and sweet. Pkt.,

oblong. Pkt., 10c; oz., 15c; V 4 lb., 35c; lb., 90c. 
LONG ISLAND IMPROVED. This is undoubtedly the 
finest variety of Purple-Top Rutabaga. It grows much 
larger than other American varieties, is, therefore, 
desirable for stock, but equally desirable for the table 
and market, as it is tender and sweet and of very at¬ 
tractive appearance. Pkt., 10c; oz., 15c; V 4 lb., 35c; 
lb., 90c.
