TURNIP 
Culture Sow early varieties in April, in drills 12 to 18 inches apart. Cover seed one-half inch, and thin out to 4 to 6 
inches in the row. Cultivate frequently. For fall and winter crop, sow in July or August in drills or broadcast. An ounce 
will sow about 150 feet of drill; 1 pound per acre in drill, or 2 pounds broadcast. 
5c less per lb. in lots of 10 lb. or more. 
RESELECTED RED TOP WHITE 
GLOBE Owing to the great amount 
of care and labor involved in making 
this the best strain on the market, 
we are obliged to ask a higher price 
than for the ordinary stock. How¬ 
ever, the better price you will obtain 
for these extra fine turnips will more 
than offset the small increase in cost. 
Its particular feature is its very 
bright red top which goes well down 
on the root. It is a quick growing 
type, with fine flavored white flesh. 
Keeps well for such an early variety.
