 SUGAR BEETS. 

 The production of Sugar Beets for their sugar is already 

 one of our great national industries, and Wisconsin is well to 

 the fore as a beet-sugar producing state. Our Seed is the 

 best procurable, and the varieties we offer excel in sugar 

 content. Do not yield as heavily as Mangels, but as stock 

 feed are much more nutritious. 



Klein Wanieleben — This variety is cultivated more than 

 any other, both on account of its high sugar content 

 (15 to 20%) and its great milk-producing value. The 

 root is straight and even, quite large at the head and 

 tapering rapidly, making it easy to dig. Pkt. 5c; oz.
