One ounce will sow a

PARSNIP. grisyecte 
HOW TO GROW THEM. Parsnips need a deep, loose, 
rich soil to produce straight, smooth clean roots. Sow seed as 
early in spring as weather permits, when soil is warm. Make 
rows 114 feet apart and sow seed in rows; cover seed 14inch 
when soil is moist; then when plants are 3 to 4 inches high, 
thin out to 4 inches between the plants. The roots are improved 
in quality and flavor if left in the ground over winter. Enough 
for winter use should be stored in pits or cellars and covered 
with earth to preserve their good quality.

MANGEL-WURZEL (Stock Beets) 
Six pounds will sow an acre and will produce from 25 to 
50 tons of Beets. Dairy farmers should grow more of these 
for their cows. They make the best kind of winter feed, cost 
little and make more rich milk than almost any other feed. 
Fattening, breeding, and milk cattle do equally well on 
them. About one-fourth of the daily rations should be of 
roots. They are also excellent feed for poultry and hogs. 
Make rows 24 inches apart and thin plants to 9 inches apart 
in the rows. They grow very large. Here is a way to cut 
your feed bill way down. 
Mammoth Long Red. Very large; red flesh. 
Golden Tankard. Flesh yellow. Makes richer milk. 
Sludstrup. Reddish yellow; very large.
