Market Gardeners' Beet. 



ALWAYS GOOD— NEVER PAST ITS PRIME. 



This new beet is one of the best on my list for general eultl 

 vation by market gardeners and farmers. Makes a very rapid 

 growth from the start, often larger than Egyptian, age for age. 

 It continues to grow for a long period, making a heavy root for 

 autumn or winter use. Only one sowing is necessary to pro- 

 duce early beets for market and a main crop for winter use. 

 The quality is first-rate at all periods of growth, whether the 

 beet weighs a quarter of a pound or six pounds. It is a good 

 keeper and may be used all winter. When cooked, it is of a 

 beautiful, dark red color throughout, and of unsurpassed table 

 quality. The illustration shows the exact shape of the Market 

 Gardeners' beet. It is symmetrical in form and of decidedly 

 handsome appearance. There are but few fibrous roots and the 

 top is small. It should appeal strongly to business gardeners 

 and to everybody wanting an all seasons table beet. 



Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 15 cts.; i lb., 25 cts.; lb., 75 cts.; 5 lbs., $3.00. 



Maulers Midsummer Beet^ 



The roots are deep red in color, and always symmetrical and smooth. 

 The flesh is of a rich, dark red color. In quality it is sweet, crisp and 

 tender, and it is an enormous cropper. It is a heavy beet without being 

 hard to pull. 



It never becomes woody, even in the small portion above the ground, 

 and is always good for table use or stock food, whether pulled young 

 or old. Packet, 5 cts.; ounce, 10 cts.; J^^ pound, 25 cts.; pound, 75 cts. 



HAIjF-LiONG blood.— An excellent maiu crop beet; a great favor- 

 ite as a field sort. It combines good table quality with highest stock 

 feeding value. It is a large cropper and reliable winter keeper. The 

 root is more tapering than the turnip shaped beets, and reaches deeper 

 Into the soil. The flesh is dark red, tender and sweet; foliage rich and 

 dark. This standard beet is an old favorite 

 with market men and stock owners. Pkt., 

 5 cts.; oz., 10 cts.; 14 lb., 20 cts.; lb., 65 cts. 



DETROIT DARK. RED — A splendid beet 

 of a deep red color, for home or market. By 

 far the best for canning, on account of its 

 beauty. (Small, upright tops and perfectly 

 smooth roots. Flesh zoned with lighter and 

 darker bands; tender and sweet. Packet, 5 cts.; 

 ounce, lU cts.; % pound, 25 cts.; pound, 75 cts. 



Jesse Hughes, Ackerman, Miss.— No seeds on the 

 American Continent as good as Wm. Henry Maule'e

NEW CARDINAL 



NEW CARDINAL.— I picked up this excellent 

 variety in England, in 1895. It has proven a worthy % 

 introduction. Ready for market six weeks from l 

 sowing. The shapeis well shown in the illustra- \ 

 tion, from a photograph. The flesh is dark crim- 

 son, changing into rings of a lighter color, very 

 tender and of delicate flavor. When cooked it is of a 

 beautiful, solid crimson, and of rich, sugary flavor, 

 entirely free from fibre Packet, 10 cents; ounce, ' 

 15 cents; % pound, 25 cents; pound, 90 cents. 



MAULE'S IMPROVED LONG RED. — Next 

 to Market King this is the best long red beet on 

 the market, being of unexcelled quality for table 

 and live stock. It has yielded twelve tons to the 

 acre. In color it is rich carmine, and in quality it 

 is sweet and tender. In rich ground it may be 

 sown with advantage in July or August, as a sec- 

 ond crop. It will not be injured by the October 



frosts and will produce a great abundance of first- .. 



class root food for winter. No other beet can take Maule's Imp. Long Red. i| 

 its place. Packet, 5 cts.; ounce, 10 cts.; % pound, 23 cts.; pound, 65 cts.: 



H. G. Frank, Freeland, Md.— Your seeds are always reliable and true to name. 1 : 

 did not send you my early orders this year, as I was persuaded to send to another 

 Company, whose seeds were a trifle cheaper, and at the same time they boasted of 

 sending more extra packets than any one else. I gave them a trial order amount- 

 ihg to |4.00, and received tiie large amount nf two extra packets, and in consequence . 

 of planting their seeds, had to du without cantaloupes, watermelons and curnml ers. 

 Had I sent to you I could have seli-c\ed my extra pockets, and would have been 

 sure of my early trucli. Your seeds ureas good as Government Bunds. ,,,
