10 to 12 pounds.

ly grown for stock feed. 
SEVEN TOP. Grown exclusively for tops, 
which are used for greens. 
SOUTHERN PRIZE. Splendid foliage tur¬ 
nip which produces an abundance of leaves 
for greens and forage as well as a large,

JAPANESE FOLIAGE or SHOGOIN. A 
Japanese variety very popular in the South 
for turnip greens. Bright green leaves 
grow upright about 2 feet. Roots semi¬ 
globe, pure white, sweet and tender. Pro¬ 
duces an enormous yield of upright-growing 
foliage ready for use in about 25 days. 
Grown extensively for the canners—as it 
grows upright and is free from insects. 
RUTABAGA. American Purple Top. The 
standard variety for table and stock feed¬ 
ing. The culture is practically the same as 
for turnips, except the plant should be thin¬ 
ned to 8 to 10 inches apart in the rows. 
ASPARAGUS ROOTS 
When planting roots for the permanent 
bed the soil should be worked to a depth of 
16 or 18 inches and a liberal dressing of 
stable manure or peat moss and a good fer¬ 
tilizer applied. Make trenches about 4 
inches deep and 6 inches wide and place the 
roots crown up, about 2 feet apart. Leave 
the roots at least 4 feet apart. With care, 
a bed 500 square feet, requiring about 100 
roots, will amply provide for an average 
family for 8 or 10 years.
