 VARIETIES 



These attain a larger size than the 

 preceding, requiring a longer time to 

 form, and more room to grow.

 markets. It matures in 6 to 8 weeks, 

 though it is usually pulled earlier.

 after the early and second early sorts 

 have matured. The roots are pointed 

 four to five inches in length and one 

 and a half to two inches in diameter. 

 The skin and flesh are pure white and 

 quality very good and an additional 

 recommendation is that White Stras- 

 burg will remain solid much longer 



than will the earlier varieties. Price, oz. 15c, \i lb. 35c, lb. $1.00, 



10 lb. lots @ 90c lb.
