EXTE3. EARLY PURPLE TOP 



MUNICH.— Introduced from Ger- 

 many; flat, with red or purple top; 

 same as the American variety, but 

 fifteen days earlier to mature. It 

 "s very hardy, tender and of fine 

 flavor. 



PURPLE TOP GLOBE.— Of the 



same shape as the Pomeranian 

 Globe, but with purple top. Fine 

 variety for table or stock. It is 

 not quite so early as the Early 

 Red or Purple Top. We recom- 

 mend it very highly. 



SEVEN TOP.— This variety is quite largely 

 planted in the South for green forage during the 

 winter months. The plants do not produce bulbs 

 but are of strong growth with abundant green 

 foliage. In some sections Turnips are largely 

 planted to make a green crop to turn under to enrich the 

 soil, and this variety is one of the best for the purpose. 

 EARLY LARGE SMOOTH RED.- An early kind of me- 

 dium size; smooth and productive. 



EXTRA EARLY WHITE MILAN.— A splendid extra 

 early turnip, in which the extreme earliness, small top and 

 tap root of the Purple Top Milan are united with clear 

 white skin and flesh. Very desirable for early planting 



EARLY RED OR PURPLE TOP. (Strap- 

 Leaved.) — This is one of the most popular 

 kinds. It is flat, with a small tap-root and 

 a bright purple top. The leaves are nar- 

 row and grow erect from the bulb. The 

 flesh is finely grained and rich. 



AMBER GLOBE. — This is a very beauti- 

 ful formed variety, quite productive, solid 

 flesh and attractive color; it keeps well and 

 is desirable for either table use or for stock 

 feeding. 



YELLOW ABERDEEN.— It is shaped like 

 the Ruta Baga; color, yellow with purple 

 top. Good for table use or feeding stock. 



EXTRA EARLY WHITE FRENCH OR 

 WHITE EGG. — Is very early, tender and 

 crisp. The shape is oblong, resembling an 

 egg. Having tried it we found it as repre- 

 sented, quickly growing, tender and sweet. 



WHITE SPRING. — This is similar to the 

 White Flat Dutch; not quite so large, but 

 round in shape. The tops are large. It is 

 early, a good quality, and best adapted for 

 spring planting.
