BEETS

Garden beets may be grown in any
good soil, but thrive best on rich,
sandy loan. The seed can be sown
about the time the last frosts are due.
and the young beets will be ready for
nse in four to six weeks. The seed
should be sown in drill with about
eight or 10 seed balls to the foot.
1T should be borne in mind that each
seed ball contains from three 10 six
seeds, and that the beets will require
considerable thinning. The young
beets that are pulled out in thinning
may be used as greens during the
early spring Where the beets are to
be given hand cultivation entirely, the
rows may be placed as closely as IL
TO u inches apart and the plants should
be thinned to two to three inches in
the row.
A late planting of beets may r..
made in June, or as late as August in
some localities. for fall use and for
storage. United States Department

TURNIPS

In the Northern states ii Is an old
saying that you plant turnips July
25. whether wet or dry While this
is not literally true 1T is customary
to plant turnips in Juy and on land
that has produced a crop OF early veg
etables.
Tnrnips, however. may be grown to
perfection during the early spring
time, and throughout the South they
furnish zone OF the main sources OF
early green's, In addition to the use
of their roots. Fall-sown turnibs
produce winter and early spring
greens throughout the Southern states
without any protection or special cult
vation.
Where they are planted in the
springtime, the seeds nre generally
sown in rows about II inches apart
and the plnts thinned to about two
inches in the row. the Trimmings being
used as greens. For fall planting the
seed is generally sown broadcast and
slightly raked into the soil.-UnIted
