BEET. 
Tender and of peerless quality.. Vividly rich in color. Unequaled for slicing. 
The principal points of excellence in Henderson’s Half Long Reet are the vividly 
rich blood-color which characterizes it, and peculiar adaptation for slicing. The top is 
medium in size, of such very rich glossy crimson color that it can be used in ornainental 
bedding. The bulb is three inches in diameter at shoulder. taperieg in pear-shaped 
form to the slender root. It grows partly ovt of the ground and is entirely free from 
roughness. No more brilliant color can be desired than is shown on slicing this variety, 
while its extreme tenderness and freedom trom woody fibre or tough string evidences 
its peerless quality, 1cce pkt.; 15c. 0z.; 30c. % lb.; $1.00 lb.

smail, starting clear from the bulb without taper; the maximum of edible bulb with the 
minimum of root and foliage. ‘The color is dark crimson, ringed with a lighter hue. 
It is extremely early, coming in right along with Extra Early Egyptian, Prepared for

flesh, rich sugary flavor and entire absence of fibre stamp it as most valuable. roc. pkt.;
