-Long Scarlet White Tip 



Days to Maturity, 28. A variety introduced by Ferry ia 1891 

 under the name of Early Long Brightest Scarlet. Owing to the sim- 

 ilarity in this name to Long Scarlet, and owing to a very general 

 tendency to be white tipped, the name, Long Scarlet White Tip, 

 has come into general use. It is a variety with the root four and 

 one-half inches long, cylindrical, smooth and uniform. The color 

 is a brilliant scarlet within, perhaps, one inch of the bottom of the 

 root, which will be white. It is slightly earlier than Icicle, and will 

 become pithy in a correspondingly shorter time. For all general 

 purposes, this variety is more desirable than Long Scarlet. Pkt.

No. 886— White Icicle 



Days to Maturity, 30. An old American variety. The root will 

 attain a length of about five and one-half inches, tapering regularly 

 from near the shoulder to the tip, holding this thickness for nearly 

 its entire length, the thickest part being about one inch from the 

 top. It will hold a week to ten days before becoming pithy. The 

 color is a pure white, almost transparent, maturing five days later 

 than Scarlet Globe and five days earlier than White Box. Having 

 an attractive appearance and fine eating qualities, this variety is 

 widely popular. Pkt. 10c, oz. 15c, }i lb. 40c, 1 lb. $1.25, postpaid. 



WHITE 

 ICICLE 



No. 888— Long Scarlet 



Days to Maturity, 30. One of the oldest varieties 

 known in this country, having been listed by Minton 

 Collins in 1793. The bright scarlet root will attain a 

 length of from five to six inches, having a diameter of 

 one inch. The flesh is crisp and tender. Care must be taken not to 

 allow this variety to remain too long after attaining its full growth, 

 for it is likely to become pithy after a week's time. Pkt. 10c, oz. 

 15c, H lb. 40c, 1 lb. $1.25, postpaid.
