Robertson's Golden Ball. Is the best 

 of the Yellow Turnips for table use. It is 

 very smooth, oval in shape, and of a beau- 

 tiful orange color. Leaves aresmall. Should 

 be sown in the fall of the year, and always 

 in drills, so that the plants can be thinned 

 out and worked. This kind ought to be 

 more cultivated. 



Amber Globe. This is very similar to 

 the above kind. 



I/arge White Globe. A very large 

 kind, mostly grown for stock. It can be 

 used for the table when young. Flesh 

 coarse, but sweet; tops very large. 



Pomeranian Globe. 



Pomeranian Globe. This is selected 

 from the foregoing. It is smoother and 

 handsomer in shape; good to plant early 



in spring. When pulled before it is too 

 large, it is a very saleable Turnip in the 

 market.
