% 70 Maule’s Early Wonder 
Extremely Early, Deep Red, Tender and Sweet. 40 days 
This wonderful early beet is the result of years’ reselect- 
ing and improving, and is now so perfect that we believe it is 
one of the earliest and best turnip-shaped beets grown. It is 
much earlier than Crosby’s Bgyptian, maturing in about 40 
days, of perfect shape and beautiful, deep red color. The tops 
are not quite as large as Crosby’s Egyptian, which permits 
close planting and is excellent for bunching; a desirable early 
sort for the home garden as well as for market.
