RED L1BERIAN. 



This old variety, known under so many synoimns, made a very good 

 showing in this season's trial. It is very distinctive in its character, gives 

 a good yield peraere, and has a good contentof sugar. I ts greatest fault 

 is to be found in the small round seeds it produces. These produce 

 plants which are very small and feeble at first, and when the planting 

 is done with a corn-planter the seed is apt to be (oo close in the hill.
