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 eau 1 pound to the acre.
