Turnip 
(NaVone, Nabe, Weisse Rueben) 
CULTURE—One ounce of seed will sow 150 feet of drill; 2 pounds an acre. Turnips 
should be grown quickly to be of the best quality and should be sown in good, deep, 
rich soil. Sow from March to the last of August, as you want the crop to mature, in 
drills 12 to 18 inches apart, or broadcast if preferred, using about 2 pounds of seed 
per acre. Rutabagas require a longer time to mature and should be sown earlier in the 
season. They also require more space and should be planted further apart. The Fly or 
Flea Beetle is very destructive to turnips, especially during dry weather. The dusting of 
lime or plaster on the plants when the ily or beetle appears will often check them. 
AMBER GLOBEi —Grows to a large size, skin yellow, with green crown. Flesh 
yellow. 
EXTRA EARLY WHITE MILAN —Remarkably early; top very small, upright 
and compact, so that rows can be planted close together. Roots clear white, 
very smooth, flat and symmetrical; flesh white, sweet and tender. The best 
sort for growing under sash. 
EXTRA EARLY PURPLE TOP MILAN —Similar to White Milan, except roots 
are a little flatter and purple-red on upper portion. 
PURPLE TOP FLAT STRAP LEAF 1 —An early flat sort; crown purplish red, 
white below, flesh white. Used principally for stock. 
Purple Top White Globe 
PURPLE TOP WHITE GLOBE —The favorite for the 
table because of its mild flavor and attractive ap¬ 
pearance. It is purple or dark red above ground 
and pure white below. It is a heavy yielder and 
keeps well. 
POMERANIAN WHITE GLOBE —One of the most 
productive kinds, and in good, rich soil roots will 
frequently grow to 12 pounds in weight. It is 
globe-shaped, skin white and smooth. Used for 
stock feeding; also excellent for table use. 
SEVEN TOP —Grown exclusively for the tops, which 
are used for greens. 
SHOGOIN (Foliage Turnip) —A Japanese variety be¬ 
coming very popular in the South for turnip 
greens, displacing the Seven Top. Bright green 
leaves grow upright, about 2 feet. Roots semi¬ 
globe, pure white, sweet and tender. Leaves re¬ 
sistant to plant lice. 
SNOWBALL (Early)—A quick-growing, ball-shaped, 
pure white variety, with short top and free from 
bitter taste. 
WHITE EGG—A very early variety and the most 
popular in this territory for both the market and 
home garden. It is egg-shaped, pure white, fine 
grained, and does not become strong - . It is one of 
the heaviest croppers and the best all-season 
turnip on the market. 
Rutabaga or Swede 
AMERICAN PURPLE TOP (Long Island Improved)— 
The best of the yellow purple top rutabagas. The 
flesh is tender and sweet. 
BANGHOLM—An improved strain of Purple Top 
Rutabagas. The roots are large size, oblong, 
globular shaped, with small neck, yellow flesh, 
very dark purple top. A large cropper.
