BEETS 
Sow seed as early in the spring as possible, 
in drills 15 to 18 inches apart, covering about 
1 inch deep, and thin the plants to 2 to 3 
inches apart. Plantings every three weeks un- 
til mid-July will furnish a supply of fresh Beets 
until late fall. Late in June make a large plant- 
ing to produce Beets for winter use. Harvest 
before frost and store in pits outdoors, or in a 
dry cellar. For an extra-early crop start the 
seed under glass.
