MANGEL-WURZEL AND SUGAR CATTLE BEETS 



CHIRK CASTLE MANGEL-WURZEL BEET 



Remarkable for its handsome, thick, uniform shape 

 ana very broad shoulders, its diameter being greater and 

 its weight much heavier than Mammoth Long Red, as shown 

 in our photograph above. Flesh is deep red, containing lesa 

 water and more sugar than any other Mangel, making it more 

 nutritious and milk-producing. Sheep also thrive better 

 when fed on it, picking out pieces of it in preference to other 

 kinds. It was originated in Scotland, where it has been known 

 to produce 60 tons to the acre. Pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; £ lb., 25c; 

 lb., 60c, postpaid; by freight or express, lb., 50c; 5 lbs. 

 (enough for one acre), $2.25; 10 lbs. and over at 40c per lb. 



GIANT FEEDING SUGAR MANGEL BEET 



A new strain which, while giving as large a yield of easily 

 grown and harvested roots as a crop of ordinary Mangels, sup- 

 plies a food richer in sugar and of very much higher nutritive 

 value. Roots grow partly out of the ground, and because of 

 this and their shape, the crop can be harvested and stored 

 easily. Pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; \- lb., 20c: lb., 60c, postpaid; bv 

 express, lb., 50c; 5 lbs., $2.25.

Originated bv Mr. Taber, the prominent English seed 

 grower. Since its introduction in England and in this country, 

 a few years since, has rapidly popularized itself, and is pro- 

 nounced by leading farmers the most useful Mangel that can 

 be grown. Its handsome, clean roots are very heavv, often 

 weighing 40 pounds and over, and producing 2,000 to 2,500 

 bushels to the acre. Our seed of this now famous sort is grown 

 for us by the originator in England. Pkt., 5c; oz., 10c: \ lb., 

 25c; lb., 70c, postpaid; by freight or express, lb., 60c: 5 lbs.
