Stock Feeders—Raise Mangels 
The average yield of mangels per 
acre is 30 tons. Aside from the min¬ 
imum feeding value of $2.50 per ton, 
the mangel is a regulator that keeps 
stock in the best health. 
Mangels are very easily grown. 
A loose or sandy loam type of soil 
is best to grow mangels on. Drill 
about 6 pounds of seed per acre in 
rows 2 feet apart. Cultivate right 
after planting down the drill rows.
