MANGEL-BEETS 
CULTURE. Sow six pounds to the acre in rows three 
feet apart, and thin to nine inches in the row. Seed 
should not be sown until the ground is warm and the 
weather fully settled, Shallow planting is desirable be- 
cause the seed germinates more quickly and a larger pro- 
portion will make more vigorous plants than when plant- 
ed deeply. Deeper planting will be required on sand lands 
or when the soil is dry. Cultivation should begin within 
a day or two from planting. Sow one inch deep. Mangels, 
when fed in combination with grain, are worth almost 
as much, pound for pound, as the grain. Experience has 
proved that mangels so aid digestion and assimilation, 
by Keeping the animals in a healthy condition, that they 
increase the feeding value of other feeds consumed be- 
sides the nutrients the roots contain. Mangels, when fed 
to cows, materially increase the flow of milk.

CULTURE FOR EARLY CABBAGE. Seed of the early 
varieties should be sown % of an inch deep in a green- 
house, hotbed or in boxes in the house, about 6 weeks 
before the plants are needed for planting out. One-fourth

If, when the second leaves appear, the plants can be 
transplanted, spacing them 3 inches apart, better and 
more hardy plants will be obtained. 
As soon as the soil can be worked in the spring the 
plants should be removed to the open field and set in 
rows 2 feet apart each way. 
CULTURE FOR LATE CABBAGE. The seed may be sown 
in rows one foot apart or broadcast in the garden, about 
the middle of May, and the plants set in the field in June.
