Mangel Beets for Stock Feeding 
Mangels or Stock Beets are a splendid feed for cattle and hogs. Increases the milk yield 
from cows. Puts animals in better physical condition. Yield larger crops than turnips and are of 
greater feeding value. The best food in existence for all kinds of livestock. Over 40 tons have 
been grown on a single acre, and in feeding value this is equal to 130 bushels of corn. 
CULTURE. Much depends on good culture, so prepare your land thoroughly and plow 
deeply. Sow and give thorough cultivation. After the first cultivation, thin out, so as to stand 
six inches apart in the row, and cultivate like corn. If late in planting, soak the seeds for 24
