Turnips, Cabbage and Onions.
The, curs ip is one of our best root
crops, and one, which has become
standby in 111111 y families,
The garden turnips, the only kind
to ceoeidered here, are divided into
til iu e and yellow fleshed, or tur-
nip and rutabagas, although properly
Speaking the latter name belongs
Alone to the Swedish division of the
yellow ones,. Tho yellow -fleshed tur-
nips are grown principally for winter
use, the white early ones being used
for the all -season and early crops.
The turnip is a gross feeder and de-
mands good soil or poor crop will
be the result. The soil should be
well worked so as to be find and mel-
low before the planting is dune, and
the soil in the drills, when they have
been made, freed from small clods,

d ruse make
the drills foot
apart and an inch deep.
Sow the seed in the drills sparingly,
dropping them about an inch apart,
and cover with fine soil and gently
press down over the top of the drills
with the back of a hoe or a piece of
board. Germination will be hastened
if you keep the drills moist, hut not
sclggy, until the young plants appear.
When• the plants get to a height of
an•inch thinning should be done. This
is important and depends as to spac-
ing on the kinds planted. Most of
the early, flat strap -leaved ones grow
to a diameter of three inches under
good cultivation, although most per-
sons begin to pick them whenthey
are half an inch smaller, Foi' this
`reason they should be thinned out to
four inches apart in the drills. If
you are fond of turnip sauce and like
the tops asrecns used like spinach,

pick the turnips when they are two
inches. in, diameter and thin them out
to three inches apart is the drills.
This will enable you to grow more in
the same space of ground and enjoy
the turnips ,when they are the best.
If successional planting' is done, you
will have early ones corning on until
the first ones of the late crop are
ready for use.
When sown in the garden in drills,
the working of the soil should com-
mence as soon as the thinning is done,
as every effort should be made to keep
down the weeds and keep the soil
loose and the dust mulch on it all the
time as the hot weather approaches.
To check turnips during the hot, dry
weather of midsummer means pithy
or tough roots. When the soil is to
be worked by the wheel hoe the drills
must be made far enough apart to
enable it to 110 used.
A
Growing the Cabbage
For the early crop of cabbage.the
soil should be as rich and mellow as
you canmake it, and should be of the
]rind known as "warm," which means
one which lies well up and drains
% quickly after rains and gets the full
effect of the sun all day. We in-
el'eaee the warmth of the soil .for
early cabbage by ridging it -heaping
up the soil into ridges a foot high and
of the same breadth. It also should
be light in texture or the plants will
not mature quickly. Growing' early
t•ahbagc is at "rushing" business.
For late cabbage the soil should be
heavier and more retentive of mois-
ture and not so rich as for the early,
OS the crop has longer to mature, anti •1
if rushed is likely to burst open, which s
spoils its keeping qualities. An

Tho early cabbage plants should be
set twenty inches apart in the rows
and the rows two feet apart, as the
Ileads and root mass, are not an large
as are the late ones, which should be
set two feet apart in the rows and the
rows two feet apart i$, to be worked
with the hoe; or, if to be worked with
the wheel -cultivator, make the rows
three feet apart.
When setting out the early Babbage
have the ridges made at least the day
before and properly leveled, Go over
them with a trowel Or pointed hoe and
scoop out a hollow at the right dis-
tance apart to set the plants. This
is better than making holes with the
dibble f0Iplants transplanted
from
boxes or flats and also provides for
those which have been growing on
in two-inch pots.
This method of planting will allow
the rootsto remain in the sante re-
lative position they had before being
moved. This saves time in maturing.
Plants pulled out of boxes and set
10 holes, straight up and down, and
pressed tightly together, will require
time to readjust themselves to an al-
tered environment and a disturbed
root -mass. There will be no trou-
ble about continuous growth in the
case of dross- "young cabbage plants

The Culture of Onions
A loose, sandy loam is best, well
filled with humus and dressed - with
well -rotted manure, dug in the trench.
For this purpose poultry droppings,
wood ashes and stoh;e manure cul be
used.
The rnalrl101 of sowing will depend
somewhat on how the garden is to be
worked. If with a wheel hoe, the drills
may be made a root to fifteen inches
apart. If worked entirely by hand,
eet the drills eight to ten inches apart.
Sow thinly in the drills, 5o as to run
about half an inch apart, is it pays to

When sowing he sure to cover
the seeds with fine soil. This will
require care, and is .very important,
as. the yong seedling onions .are very
tender, and cleds, even of sma11•siz0,
are an obstruction to their growth. A
good plan is to fill a hugest with fine
soil, and go along the drills covering
the seeds with soil sifted through'the
fingers.
Covering of the seeds must be fol. -

insure a good contact with the soil.
