ENORMOUS YIELDING PRIZE WINNERS. 



PI FASF RFAR IN MINH That all experimental investigations and other tests have placed carrots among the leaders as a 

 r iJL/\t\ 111 itllllLy desirable food for stock. Dairymen prize them very highly for their great fattening qualities and 



sincreasing 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 will pav vou a hundi'cd fold for time spent in caring for same. You cannot fail to have a good crop by planting my 

 SUPERIOR WESTERN GROWN CARROT SEED. I would particularly recommend that those interested in growing roots for stock feed- 

 ing 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 the?e two kinds. It seems no 

 exaggeration to say that we could fill a book as large as this catalogue witli the written and spoken praises that our customers 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 prizes. 



BUCKBEE'S MAJESTIC — This is the largest and unquestionably 

 the heaviest cropping and most nutritious yellow variety in cul- 

 tivation. It is the largest and best form of orange or yellow car 

 rot 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 weigLt 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 everv one whoig-rows it. , Pkt. 5c, oz. 10c. "

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 

 improvement on the white and green Belgian sorts 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 1.5 to 20 inches in 

 circumference, and 18 to 25 tons to the acre is not an extravagant 

 statement as to the yield. Pkt. 5c, oz. 10c, ^ lb. 25c, }4 lb- 40c.

J I imi WE ARE frequently asked " Which is the better of these two carrots?" While there are many who prefer the 



MAJESTIC, I am free to say that VICTORIA is equally much in favor. It is ti-ue that yellow carrots are some- 

 l»u aji>*rMiii what more in favor than the white, but there is no other white stock carrot that can compare with Buckbee's 



' I "" Victoria for all around good qualities. In order, however, that our customers may test the comparative merits 



of these two great carrots, we will send to any address, postpaid, to any part of the United States, One Pound Each of Buckbee's 

 Majestic and Victoria Carrots for only $1.40. My five pound price, viz. : 70c (postpaid) per pouud is absolutely the lowest price at which 

 it will be possible for me to sell these two greatest of all carrots in quantity. 4 



BUCKBEE'S IMPROVED SHORT WHITE— This distinct variety is, 

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

 enormous pi-oductiveness and its growing well out of the ground, 

 makiug 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. easily harvested, and the best of its class. Pkt. 

 4c, oz. 7c, lb. 20c, K lb. 35c, lb. 60c, 5 lbs. onl>- $3.75, postpaid. 



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 ab- 

 nyitlvat the point. One of the vei'y best for cattle feeding. 

 Pkt. he. o7.. (ic, i< lb. 15c, K lb. 35c, lb. 40c, 5 lbs. SI. 75, postpaid. 



MAMMOTH WHITE BELGIAN — A splendid variety for fattening 

 stock- The roots ai-e surprisingly mammoth in size and its pro- 

 ductiveness is amazingly enormous, often yielding 10 tons and 

 oyer 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 

 pleased with it. Pkt. 2c, oz. 5c, ^ lb. 15c, )4 lb. 25c, lb. 40c.
