CULTURE.—The soil best suited for the culture of the Beet is that which is rather light than otherwise, always provided that it is thoroughly enriched with well-rotted manure. For an early supply sow in spring, as soon as the ground is fit to work in drills about one foot apart and two inches deep. For main crop, sow the first week in May, ai^d for winter use sow in June. These'dates are for the latitude of Philadelphia. For the South, sow earlier ; for the North, later. When the plants have attained three or four leaves' thin out so that they may stand five or six inches apart. In October, the roots may be taken up and stored in cellar or pits outside.
