TABLE Bttls 
4 TABLE BEETS may be planted as early in the spring as the ground can be worked, since they 
can stand light frosts. A moist soil that is well drained suits beets to perfection. One ounce 
of beet seed will plant about 100 feet of row and should be planted about one inch deep. The 
rows should be 16 tq 20 inches apart and the plants should be thinned out to stand three 
inches apart in the row. Beets may be stored for winter use with very little trouble by packing 
them in sand or loose soil in a cool cellar where they will not be touched by frost.
