VEGETABLE SEED SPECIALTIES ^ 



Hendersons Superior TABLE TURNIPS 



Early White Milan Turnip. An extra early vari- 

 ety. The bulb forms very rapidly, making but few 

 and small leaves. It is eminently adapted for early 

 spring and summer planting, and if sown at month- 

 ly intervals will furnish a continuous supply of the 

 most tender and delicately flavored turnips; the 

 root is of medium size, very handsome, smooth and 

 of a clear ivory-white both inside and out. The 

 flesh is fine-grained, tender and of mild, sweet 

 flavor, it never becomes pithy or stringy. It will 

 undoubtedly find a welcome in all gardens, as, in 

 addition to the heavy crop assured by its adapt- 

 ability for close planting, it will be found to be 

 fit for use at least a week earlier than any other 

 white variety in 

 cultivation. (See

 table qualities are unsurpassed ; texture fine-grained 

 and tender ; flavor sweet and rich. It is of quick growth 

 and adapted for spring, summer or early autumn

 crisp, tender and sweet. It is a fitting companion to 

 the yellow-fleshed Golden Ball offered above, and 

 equally early, maturing in six weeks from sowing.
