MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFOHD, OREGON MONDAY. OCTOBER 22. 1962 7 ZA Small Worlds Around n v -v us IRtfUter fc Tribune Syndicate, I4S2) MOKE FOR El Turnip Has No Glamour; Tends To It Job-Growing There was a really big meet ing going on. In fact it was be coming more crowded every day. In this vegetable society, contained in the wide field, a million turnips (give or take a few hundred) were growing sold, plump and round. The turnip hardly attains anything like glamour, but it can make up for that discrep ancy by becoming solid, heavy and pleasantly flavored. No turnip aspires fn be anything different than whi t it is; can't accomplish a thing except to vegetate, each in its own little space in the ground. Neither does one turnip care what any other turnip does; it doesn't even know that others of its kind are fill ing out right in the next space, and in the same row. Fortunate, probably, that each is an individualist. Imag ine how a turnip would worry if it knew that a thousand bushels can grow in a single acre of ground. A thousand bushels to an acre is big pro duction, which ever way we look at it. No Crowding Knowing full well how each little turnip aspires to attain girth and weight, the raiser of turnips spaces the vegetables an adequate dis tance apart, so one turnip can't crowd brother - turnip growing right alongside in its own little spot of earth. It is a silent but highly efficient process, the growth of the tur nip. Under the influence of warmth, soil elements and a little time and moisture, the turnip pushes the soil away from itself; forces the earth back a little to attain growing room, occupying a space pre viously taken by soil. According to its ancestral beginnings, each turnip will develop into a "flat-rooted" or a "long-rooted" species. It may even be a winter or sum mer turnip; may even be Swedish turnip and wind up in a store to be sold to a lady who asks for a "rutabaga." Become Greens Some turnips will lose their tops, the leaves later becom ing turnip greens, with a mild bite, indicating the vegetable's relationship with the mustard family of plants. The turnip also claims the plebian cab bage as a relative. Aside from the men who come to dig the plump turnip folks from the ground, the tur nips have a few enemies which enjoy nibbling on the green tops. The flea-beetle hops around on the leaves, eatine as he goes. He has well developed rear legs that makes jumping a way of loco motion. Then there is a turnip-fly which deposits eggs that hatch into larvae which joyously cuts furrows into the body of the turnip. So. let's leave them there and "turnup" the next row.
