Tlli "H^MRTA DREER ^PHILADELPHIA^A ^^ RELIABLE VEGETABLE SEEDS 43 Navet, Fr. TURNIP Nabo, Sp. One ounce will sow 200 feet of drill, one to two pounds for an acre Culture. For early, sow seed of flat varieties in open ground in spring in drills one foot or more apart, using seed sparingly. Thin to 3 or 4 inches apart. For succession sow every two weeks until June. For fall and winter sow in July and August. A good crop may often be grown by scattering seed thinly in the cornfield at last cultivation. For Ruta Bagas sow seed in seed- bed in spring and transplant to good warm soil, in rows at least 2 feet apart and 8 or 10 inches apart in the rows, or sow in open ground during June and early July. Take up the roots just before winter, top and store in cool cellar, or pit outdoors. Purple Top White Globe. (See cut.) This type of Turnip is more largely grown than any other, both for table use and feeding stock during the winter. It is in fine condition for table use when of medium size, but should be allowed to grow large when used for cattle feeding. It is globular, in shape, very handsome and of superior quality. The flesh is white and skin white, with purple at portion which grows above the ground. It is in best condition for table use when roots are about three inches in diameter. Grows rapidly and produces large crops. It keeps well and is one of the best var- ieties grown; very largely used for mar- ket.
