comparatively thicker and are deeper colored than the

of this variety will produce the largest and fiuest roots

 many strains of the same sort offered under other 

 names, such as Norbitan Giant. Colossal, 3Iouarch,

Ar^tnnP filnhp ^^ think this one of the best vari- : 

 WI aiiyc; UIUUC etles of mangel wurzel grown for i 

 Stock feeding. It has exceedingly small tops and few 

 leaves; leaf stalks and blades green; roots medium 

 sized, uniformly globe shaped, having a very small 

 r,- tap and few side roots; coloi- of skin deep oiauge yel- 

 low; flesh white and of excellent qualiiy. The roots 

 grow almost entirely above ground, making them 

 admirably adapted to shallow soil and very easy to

 ground; 

 flesh white, sweet and tender; tops green, comparatively small; 

 neck small, short. We think this is perhaps the best of the yel- 

 low field beets, because its fine flesh never becomes woody and 

 its roots grow so well out of the ground that the crop is easily 

 harvested. Pkt. 5c; Oz. 10c; 2 Oz. 10c; %Lb. 15c; Lb. 35c.

BROGOU 



Although originating from a very distinct type, 

 the modern improved sorts of Brocoli can scarcely 

 be distinguished from cauliflower; the points of 

 difference being that they are generally taller and the heads more 

 divided. The culture is the same as that given for cauliflower. 



EARLY LARGE WHITE FRENCH. The best variety. Heads white, very compact and 

 hard, continuing firm for a long time. A hardy, vigorous, easily grown sort. Pkt. 5c; 

 Oz. 45c; 2 Oz. 85c; H Lb. $1.50 



BRUSSELS 

 SPROUTS 



Improved Half Dwarf. The 



plants, which are very hardy, 

 grow two or thiee feet high 

 and produce from the sides of 

 the stalk numerous little 

 sprouts which resemble very 

 small cabbages, one or two 

 inches in diameter. The 

 leaves should be broken down 

 in the fall, to give the little 

 heads more room to grow. 

 They should be treated in 

 all respects like winter cab- 

 bage or kale. We offer a care- 

 fully grown strain, -very hardy, 

 and giving compact, round 

 sprouts of Irtrge size and good 

 quality. Pkt. 6c; Oz. 15c;
