BEETS 
Time to Plant—Sow quite early in the Spring (about 
April 20) and at intervals, from then until about July 25. 
Soil Preparation—A light, rich soil is best. Do not 
use fresh manure for it will cause the roots to become 
scabby. Old, well rotted manure well mixed with the 
soil is excellent; also a standard vegetable fertilizer with 
a high potash content. 
Planting—Sow the seed thinly in rows and later thin 
‘out so that the plants will stand about 2 inches apart. 
Allow about 11% feet of space between rows. 
1 ounce of seed should sow a 50-foot row 
_ All varieties are suitable for freezing.
