Table Queen Squash 
TOBACCO 
Culture. The seed is sown from February to April in 
open beds. Ground must be clean, very finely pulverized, 
raked fine and smooth. It is customary to burn over the 
top of the bed by piling brush or litter to destroy weed 
seeds and add fertility for the young plants. After sowing, 
beds are protected with thin cotton cloth, similar to cheese- 
cloth, to protect them from Tobacco flies. About June Ist 
the plants are set in rich or highly fertilized ground in 
rows 4 feet apart each way. An ounce sows about 50 
square yards, sufficient to set 2 or 3 acres. 
3827 KELLY’S IMPROVED TYPE WHITE BUR- 
GEY. A heavy yielder of rich, bright leaf, large, long 
and broad. It is fast becoming the most popular type of 
Burley and is largely grown by planters in all Burley 
sections.

328 JUDY’S PRIDE TYPE WHITE BURLEY. This 
variety has won great popularity in certain sections of 
Kentucky and Tennessee, and we think it is a good 
stand-up Burley. The leaf is broad, long and tapering, 
with prominent white ribs. The stalk is strong and 
holds the leaves well up off the ground. :

TURNIPS 
Culture. For early use, sow in March or April, 
either broadcast, or in drills, using preferably Milan 
or Purple Top Strap Leaf or Globe.

tember 15th, broadcast 11% to 2 lbs. per acre. An ounce 
will sow about 300 feet. Turnips for greens can be 
sown as late as October Ist, and require 2 lbs. per acre.

larly valuable for sowing in early spring. Roots are

Rutabaga or Swedish Turnips

earlier. To get heavy crops of large Turnips sow the seed June 15 to July 1, in rows phe ps plants. The Vegetable Spaghetti is light golden color 
2 to 214 feet apart. Thin the plants to a foot apart. Rutabagas make excellent AL measures abcut 10 inches long and 5 inches in diameter. 
winter feed for sheep. For table use, Rutabagas can be sown later and will be of good keeper and can be used as required. Cook whole and 
better quality, but not as large as when sown early.
