Maule's Best Table Beets 



S2 Maule's Market Gardeners 



Half Long, Sweet, Tender, Fine Grained, Heavy Yielder, 

 Firm and Solid 



(55 days) The popularity of this splendid beet is well deser\»ed. It is always 

 good during any season. Never past its prime. The roots are of a uniform, even, 

 half-long shape. They grow rapidly into a solid, firm-fleshed root that is par- 

 ticularly suited for winter storing. It is valuable alike to market growers and 

 home gardeners, Roots deep red, half long, and smooth; distinctly 

 zoned. Sweet, tender, fine grained, and of good color, Pkt, iOc; oz. i5c; 

 1/4 ib. 40c; 1/2 lb, 60c; lb. $1.00; 2 lbs, $1.85; 5 lbs. $4.40; 10 lbs. $8.00. 



91 Edmand's Early Turnip Beet 



Bright Purplish Red Color; Turnip Shaped; Tender, 

 Fine Grained and Sweet 



(45 days) Many gardeners swear by this excellent, quickly maturing variety. 

 It is indeed a most desirable turnip-shaped beet with deep blood-red skin and 

 flesh. It has a short top which makes close planting possible. The roots are 

 almost round and at times taper off at the base into more of a turnip shape. 

 The flesh is bright, purplish red showing a little zoning of a somewhat lighter 

 color. In fact, the inside of this beet is so uniform in color that it seems to be 

 solid red. It has established itself firmly in certain market-growing sections, 

 and it is also highly valued by many home gardeners who appreciate its fine, 

 tender-grained flesh and rich sweetness. Pkt. 5c; oz. lOc; V4 lb. SOc; 

 V2 lb. 45c; lb. 75c; 2 lbs. $1,35; 5 lbs. $3.20; 10 llJS. $5.60.

77 Crosby's Egyptian 



Medium Size Tops, Roots Flattened 



Globe Shape With Small Tap Root. 



Flesh Deep Red, Zoned Lighter 



(42 days) Our strain of this quality beet 

 is a decided improvement on the older 

 forms of Egyptian beet and we claim 

 there is no better early garden beet. The 

 roots are larger and more globular 

 though still somewhat flattened at the 

 top, representing more or less of a turnip 

 shape. The skin is a very deep red and 

 the flesh is somewhat lighter in color. 

 The foliage is quite short so that by close 

 planting the yield from a given area can 

 be considerably increased. Market gar- 

 deners will find this an ideal variety for 

 bunching. Pkt. 10c; oz. 15c; 1/4 lb. 30c; 

 1/2 lb. SOc; lb. 85c; 2 lbs. §1.55; 

 5 lbs. $3.60; 10 lbs. §6.35.

70 Maulers Early Wonder Table Seet 



Extremely Early, Deep 

 Red Roots ; Tender 



and Sweet (40 days) 



This early beet is the result 

 of yearly selection made over 

 a long period of time. As we 

 offer it today it seems almost 

 impossible to still further im- 

 prove its appearance 

 and excellent quality. 

 The roots are of turnip 

 shape, of a beautiful 

 deep red color, and of 

 medium size. This 

 characteristic makes it 

 possible to grovi' them 

 quite close and there- 

 by increase the yield 

 from a given area. 

 Equally desirable for 

 home garden planting 

 as for market. Pkt. 10c; 

 oz. 15c; Vi lb. 30c; 

 1/2 lb. 50c; lb. 85c;
