HALF-LONG BLOOD.—An excellent second 
early beet; a favorite sort. One of the best lor 
winter keeping purposes; valuable for table or for 
stock feeding. Packet, 5 cents; ounce, 10 cents; 
14 pound, 20 cents; pound, 60 cents; 5 pounus, $2.90. 
MAULE’S IMPROVED LONG RED. — The 
best long red beet on the market, especially desir- 
able for winter or fall use. Excellent for the table 
as well as for live stock. This beet has yielded 12 
tons to the acre. The shape is well shown in the 
cut. Sweet and tender in taste; rich carmine in 
color. No gardener or dairyman should be 
without beets of this variety. ‘Ine Improved 
Long Red may be sown with great economic 
advantage in July or August, in rich ground, 
as a second crop, for late tall and winter use. 
Packet, 5 cents; ounce, 10 cents; 4 pound, 
20 cents; pound, 55 cents; 5 pounds, $2.50. 
IMPERIAL SUGAR BEET.—One of the 
best beets ever raised for feeding cows and 
other live stock. The cost of production is 
low, and the crop has reached 30 tons per 
acre. Very free of side roots and altogether de- 
sirable. This beet is in high favor with many 
dairymen. My prize offer of $25, a few years ago, 
for the heaviest Imperial Sugar 
beet, brought me an authenti- 
cated record of 35% 
pounds. Pkt., 5 cts.; 
oz., l0cts.; 14 1b., 15 cts.; 
Ib., 39 cts.; 5 Lbs., 31.50. 
KLEIN WANZ- 
LEBEN. — Held 
in highest’ es- 
teem at the best 
sugar factories, 
on account of its 
great peacentage 
of saccharine 
matter. The 
German chem- 
ists unite in re- 
ecommendad- 
ing it asthe 
best for 
sugar mak- 
ing pur- 
poses, ‘ 
and the IMP. LONG RED. KLEIN WANZLEBEN. IMPERIAL SUGAR, 
American experience coincides with this testimony. It is said that as much as 18 
tons of sugar have been made from 100 tons of Klein Wanzleben beets. I urge 
dairymen to try this beet as winter food for milk cows. Packet, 5 cents; ounce, 
10 cents; 144 pound, 15 cents; pound, 35 cents; 5 pounds, $1.50. 





























— S NOT A recent bulletin issued by the Coriell (N. Y.)Experiment Station says: 
2 gp “The successful manufacture of sugar from the beet root in America, is 
=e no longer in doubt. That question has passed the experimental stage. * * * In- 
S vestigations conducted in New York by this Station during the season of 1897 in- 
dicate that the State is not behind any of the Western States in adaptation of soil 
and climate to the production of sugar beets.”’ 


THE JUMBO MANGEL.—The Jumbo has pro-— 
duced over 60 tons to the acre, and is the very best& 
jong red mangel in cultivation. It is not coarse,
