TURNIPS

The turnip requires a rich soil and may be grown either as an early or late crop. For an early crop, sow the seeds In drills 12 to IS inches apart as early in the spring as the condition 'of the soil will permit. A half ounce of seed is sufficient for a 100-foot row. lAfter the plants appear thin to about "3 inches apart. - The roots will be eady for use before hot weather. Z For late turnips, the seeds are usually sown broadcast on land from v -which some early crops has been removed, and for this reason the turnip 3s a good crop to grow for storage for "winter. They are quite hard, and the '.roots need not be gathered until after ,tbe first frosts. They may be stored Jn banks or pits or In the outdoor cave ,or cellar, and keep best when kept .Tather cool. Z The turnip is a good crop for inter"planting between rows of late corn or tjate beans. U. S. Department of Agriculture.
