New Beet 



The Fireball 



Mr. Vaughan, the introducer, says: 

 This new beet is perfectly globe shap- 

 ed, extra early in season and earlier 

 than Crosby's. The skin is smooth, the 

 flesh is solid with a very sweet flavor, 

 and of a bright intense red color. The 

 top root is tiny and the leaf stalks are 

 quite small, making it valuable for early 

 and late sowing in frames. It is also 

 very desirable in the open ground where 

 it retains its fresh table qualities better 

 than most beets. In home gardens it is 

 absolutely without a superior. We be- 

 lieve this variety will prove one of the 

 most popular beets introduced in years. 



Price per pkt. 5 cts., oz. 15 cts., X A

Early Model Beet 



This splendid variety has attained perfec- 

 tion for table use. This is indeed a model 

 variety, and will be highly appreciated both 

 for forcing and growing outside. It is a med- 

 ium early variety. The roots are of good size 

 and run uniformly perfect, almost round, with 

 small dark crimson leaves, and a slim tap root. 

 In quality and color it is peerless, very fine 

 grained, tender and sweet, never woody or 

 stringy. Color of flesh deep rich blood crim- 

 son, equalling that of the best long Beets. 



Price per pkt. 5 cts., oz. 15 cts., % lb. 50 

 cts., lb. $1.75. 



Have had good results from your seeds in the past, so have induced my neighbors to order from you 

 'his year, as you will notice from the many orders you receive from our place. — Mrs. M. H. Nolan, Fron-

CRIMSON GLOBE BEET 



This is a most valuable intro- 

 duction. It is a very early variety, 

 skin smooth and it is as handsome 

 a beet as you can find. The root is 

 not large, averaging about 3 inch- 

 es in diameter. The leaves are 

 quite small with slender stems. 

 There is no variety where richness 

 of color in both top and roots is so 

 beautifully combined as in this 

 sort. Color of flesh rich deep red 

 shading to purple, is fine grained 

 and flavor cannot be surpassed. 

 Judges appear to be unanimous as 

 to its excellent quality and as a 

 superior market beet. Price per pkt. 

 5 cts., oz. 10 cts., M lb. 40 cts., lb. 

 $1.50.
