These, as well as the Mangel Wurzels, should be sown in April or May in drills 2J/2 feet apart, and afterwards thin out to stand 8 to 12 inches apart in the row; keep well cultivated until the roots begin to form, then discontinue it, as late cultivation retards the development of sugar. One ounce will sow a drill 50 feet in length; 6 to 8 pounds are required per acre. ' Klein Wanzleben—An excellent sort for sugar mak- ^ ing, especially for the experimenter. Eighteen tons of sugar have been made from 100 tons of this beet. It grows a little larger than Vilmorin's.
