MAULE’S DARK RED EGYPTIAN.—Absolutely the most popular beet among market 
gardeners for forcing purposes; considered by many the earliest of all. Roots are turnip 
Shaped, and when young are hard, crisp and tender; color a very dark red. I can particularly 
recommend my strain to those desiring to sow the best strain of Egyptian Beet on the mare 
ket. Packet, 5 cents; ounce, 10 cents; 4 pound, 20 cents; pound, 60 cents; 5 pounds, $2.50. 
ECLIPSE.—My special strain of this popular beet is as early as the Egyptian, and by 
many of my customers is considered to be of better quality and flavor. It has a remarkably 
sma!}l top, is very smooth, fine grained and'tender. Bright redin color. During the last few 
years many of my market gardening friends have discarded Egyptian for this strain of 
Eclipse Beet, and each year witnesses an increased demand for this variety. Packet, 5 cents; 
ounce, 10 cents; 44 pound, 20 cents; pound, 60 cents; 5 pounds, $2.50. 
DMAND’S TURNIP.—This is a very thoroughbred strain of Turnip Beet; very early, 
good shape with smalltop. It has given excellent satisfaction on the Boston and other New 
England markets where it has loug been considered a most popular variety. Packet, 5 cents; 
ounce, 10 cents; 144 pound, 20 cents; pound, 60 cents; 5 pounds, $2.50. 
PHILADELPHIA EARLY TURNIP.—This is a very early beet, maturing about the 
same time, or a little later, than Eclipse. Itis very rich and sugary, and is highly thought of 
by all who have ever sown it. Flesh is in alternate rings of light and dark pink, but boils red. 
It is a very smooth variety, and a decidedly profitable one for marketing. Packet, 6 cents; 
ounce, 10 cents; 14 pound, 20 cents; pound, 60 cents; 5 pounds, $2.50. 
BASTIAN’S EARLY RED.—Very early, quick large growth, fine form and bright red 
color. Profitable for either market or home garden. Packet, 5 cents; ounce, 10 cents; 44 pound, 
20 cents; pound, 60 cents; 5 pounds, $2.50 
MAULE’S BLOOD TURNIP.—The Blood Turnip beet is known the world over as a most 
desirable variety, and there are any number of strains, good, bad and indifferent. Havin 
grown what I consider the most desirable and carefully selocted of all these various stocks, 
have for several years been supplying it to thousands of my customers to their entire satisfac- 
tion. It is nearly as early as Egyptian, but surpasses the latter variety in flavor. Colora § 
| rich, dark red; roots fine grained, globular shape, with small top. Free from side or fibrous 
| roots, always remarkably smooth. Excellent for forcing and a very superior keeper, thus 
making it also desirable for winter use. Cooks sweet, tender and crisp, and in every way may § 
be considered the standard sort for the market and home gardener. Has made a good crop 
seven weeks from sowing. Pkt., 10 cts.; 0z., 15 cts.; 14 Ib., 35 cts.; 1b., $1.00; 5 1bs., $3.75. 
EARLY BASSANO.—Grows to a good size, an excellent strain for greens; an old variety, 
but still much thought of by many growers. Pkt., 5 cts.; 0z., 10 cts.; 4 lb., 20 cts.; lb. 50 cts.
