BEETS ARE EASILY GROWN 
One of the profitable crops for the market grower. If desirable to be 
very early they may be grown in the hotbed and transplanted. 4 , 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 froih 1 to IV 2 inches 
deep. Thin to 2 to 3 inches opart. Plant some thickly for greens.
