Our Beet is carefully grown from the very best stock seeds in the world. In addition to this, 
we take out of the ground each Beet and examine it carefully; if the color ts not a fine dark red, 
and is not perfect in shape, and if it is late in maturing, we will destroy it, as we only save our 
seed from as near perfect roots as it is possible to grow. 
ulture. Fibrous loam, well drained und well enriched, will raise good Beet crop. For 
early table Beets, have drills 16 to 20 inches apart, and sow the seed about 1 inch deep, as early 
as the ground can be put in good shape, or seed may be sown under glass 4 weeks sooner and the 
young seedlings transplanted to open ground, to give an extra early crop. 
Give thorough and clean cultivation, and thin the plants to stand 3 to 4 inches apart in the 
row. 
For succession, sow at intervals to middle of July. For earliest sowings, a light dressing of 
nitrate of soda, say 100 pounds per acre, will sometimes work wonders.
