MANGEL=-WURZEL AND SUGAR CATTLE BEETS 
We strongly recommend the Mangels and Sugar Beets for 
feding to cattle, sheep and swine. The roots grow to a very 
large size, make a much heavier yield than Turnips, and are 
more nutritious and fattening for food during the winter, 
largely increasing the yield of milk in cows. They can be 
grown at trifling cost.

«Beets, Mangel-Wurzels and Sugar Beets for Stock 
Feeding,’’ will be sent free with orders when requested. 
CHIRK CASTLE MANGEL-WURZEL BEET 
Remarkable for its handsome, thick, uniform shape 
and 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 less 
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 wasoriginated in Scotland, where it has been known 
to produce 60 tons to the acre. Pkt., 5c.; oz., 10c.; 4 lb., 20e.; 
lb., 60c., postpaid; by freight or express, lb., 50c.; 5 Ibs.

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