Uncle Nate on Sugar Beets.

The Farmers Review, published at
Chicago. recently asked for an
opinion from each of it's cOrrespOn.
dents on the question of how sugar
beets should be grown. Hon. N.
Richardson, who is correspondent
from this section, gave the folio wing
opinion, which from the preference
shown 1t by the publishers of that
paper. was evidently considered a
good one:
"Beets to do best should be on a
clay subsoil. the top soil to be a
mixture of sand and CLAW. The land
will be good for beets if it has been
first seeded to clover and timothy,
and used for a pasture for two years
at least. Then let sheep run on the
pasture in place OF cattle. Turn over
the sod and pulyerize well before
planting in the spring. Plant the
seed in the spring as soon MS danger
from frost is over. We do not use
fertilizer on beets here, but nse old
pasture. We.put the seeds in rows
eighteen inches apart and from four
to six inches apart in the rows.
They are not affected by drouth II
planted in proper soil, such as men,
toned above. but On sandy land
without a clay subsoil drouth affects
them badly. Old land that has be-
come exhausted and is very weedy is
totally unfit to grow beets on. We
harvest about October first, and use
the crop to feed to CATTLE
