SPINACH. 
One of the most important crops grown for greens, and may be had in good condition from very 
early in the spring until cold weather. For early use sow very early in spring, and for succession at 
intervals. The main crop for spring and winter use should be sown in September and the plants 
covered for winter. 
One-half oz. to 100 feet of drill; 6 to 8 pounds to the acre.

TURNIP. 
For early, sow as soon as the ground can be prepared, in drills 15 inches apart, and thin the plants 
to stand 8 inches apart. Sow for succession at intervals of two weeks until the last week in July, and 
from that time onward until the last of August sow for main crop. The sowings should always be made 
just before a rain, if possible, as the success of the crop depends, in a great measure, upon quick 
germination and rapid growth of the young plants. One oz. to 300 feet of drill; 1 pound to the acre.

TOMATO. 
As the plants advance in growth support them by brushwood. To have the Tomato very early it 
is necessary to start the plants in a hotbed, or they may be reared in a flower pot in a window and 
‘subsequently transplanted. Plants for an early crop should be raised under glass. For intermediate 
crop they may be raised on outside beds. For late crops the seed may be planted in permanent position. 
One oz. to 2,500 plants; 2 ozs. to the acre.
