Turnip seed may be sown when the I'eaeh is in bloom, or among the first i i ds in early Sprint;: Indeed, the only hope of a suecesslul Spring crop is in an early start, as otherwise the |>eriod of maturity extends into hot weather, when the bulb becomes fibrous and pungent Midsummer and early Autumn are the BeasnnB for SUCCesslul Turnip drilling, though frequently the conditions of the soil then are not favorable to satisfactory vegetation. The seed of Cuttle Turnips la always drilled in rows, while the enrlv-mattiring and surface-rooted Table Turnip is generally sown broadcast. We advise the Sowing, either in drills or broadcast, of not less than three |*iuuds to the acre to insure a satisfactory stand. The Bloonwlale Swede, like other Ruta Bagas, is slower in growth than the rough-leaved Turnips, but produces roots more solid ami more nutritious—leas laxative and more fattening. The Ruta Haga is a gross feeder ami will do best H Ith twenty to twenty-live tons of stable manure to the acre ; when it cannot be obtained apply 5oo pounds superphosphate.
