ENORMOUS YIELDING PRIZE WINNERS. 



PI FAQF RFAR IN MINH That all experimental investigations and other tests have placed Carrots among the leaders as 

 rLCAJC DCA.I\ 111 iTiH^ii desirable food for stock. Dairymen prize them very highly for their great fatteijing qualities 

 and increasing the supply of milk to a wonderful degree. There is no better food in winter for horses and other stock than carrots 

 cut small, then sprinkled with salt and fed with meal. Do not fail to take advantage of the exceedingly low prices which I have 

 placed on this seed, for it wiU'pay you a hundrea fold for time spent in caring for same. You cannotfail tohavea good crop by plant- 

 ing my Superior Western Grown Carrot Seed. I would particularly recommend that those interested in growing roots for stock feeding 

 send to the United States Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C, for a free copy of Bulletin No. 11, giving the analysis of 

 American Food Stuffs. 



If you wish to grow Carrots for stock you will make a serious mistake if you grow any other than these two kinds. It seems no 

 exaggeration to say that we could fill a book as large as this catalogue with the written and spoken praises that our custorners have 

 lavished upon these Carrots. We have yet to learn of a single instance in which they have failed to give the fullest satisfaction. 

 Whenever they are shown at fairs, exhibitions, etc., they invariably capture the prize. 



BUCKBEE'S MAJESTIC— This is the largest and unquestionably the 

 heaviest cropping and most nutritous yellow variety in cultiva- 

 tion. It is the largest and best form of orange or yellow carrot 

 known. The roots are remarkably fine, very symmetrical and of 

 excellent quality, possessing high feeding properties. It is a 

 heavy cropper on all soils but especially adapted to strong or 

 rich land. It grows fully half as much weigjit again per acre as 

 the ordinary varieties, and as the roots grow more above the 

 ground it is much easier to gather the crop. This grand variety 

 is sure to suit every one who grows it. Pkt. 5c, oz. 10c, lb.

We are frequently asked, ''Which is the better of these two carrots'? 

 MAJESTIC, lam free to say that VICTORIA is equally as much in favor.

BUCKBEE'S VICTORIA— This is the heaviest cropping carrot grown, 

 yielding more tons to the acre than any other sort. The flesh is 

 white, crisp, solid and very sweet in flavor. It is a vast im- 

 provement on the white and green Belgian soi'ts as it is not only 

 much more productive but vastly easier to handle. The roots 

 are short and very heavy at the shoulder, rendering them easily 

 harvested. Too much can scarcely be said of their size and great 

 productiveness. The roots frequently measure from fifteen to 

 twenty inches in circumference, and eighteen to twenty-five tons 

 to the acre is not an extravagant statement as to the yield. Pkt.

 It is true that yellow carrots are some- 



what more in favor than the white, but there is no other white stock carrot that can compare with BUCKBEE'S 

 VICTORIA for all-around good qualities. In order, however, that our customei's may test the comparative merits

 MAJESTIC and VICTORIA CARROTS for Only $1.40. My five pound price, viz; 70c (postpaid) per pound is absolutely the lowest price 

 at which it will be possible for me to sell these two greatest of all carrots in quantity. 



BUCKBEE'S IMPROVED SHORT WHITE— This distinct variety is, MAMMOTH WHITE BELGIAN— A splendid variety for fattening 



we think, destined to take first rank as a field carrot, owing to its 

 enormous productiveness and its growing well out of the ground, 

 making it comparatively easy to harvest. Roots one-half long, 

 smooth, very heavy at the shoulder, but taper regularly to the 

 point; color light green above ground, white below; flesh rich, 

 white, solid and crisp, and of excellent flavor. This variety is a 

 heavy vielder, easilv harvested, and the best of its class Pkt.

 LARGE WHITE VOSGES— This is a field carrot and especially suit- 

 able for soils that are not very deep ; it is very productive, keeps 

 well and is easily pulled. Very broad at the neck, narrowed 

 abruptly at the point. One of the verv best for cattle feeding.

stock. The roots are surprisinglT mammoth in size and its pro- 

 ductiveness is amazingly enormous, often yielding ten tons and 

 over of roots per acre. It is highly recommended by experimen- 

 tal stations and agricultural colleges for fattening all kinds of 

 stock, and exceptionally desirable for its great milk producing 

 qualities. The lower part of the root is white, that growing 

 above ground and exposed to the air being green. You will be
