A. G. TILLINGHAST'S SEED CATALOGUE 
MANGEL WURTZEL 
BEETS 
For Stock 
Long experience has proved that 
the nutritious, juicy beet aids in the 
digestion of dry foods. Cows keep in 
better condition, give more and better 
mills, and fatten more rapidly when 
beets are ted with their daily rations. 
No root is more easily grown or pro- 
duces greater yield per acre. Sow in 
rows three feet apart, and thin to 12 
to 18 inches apart for large roots. 
The Giant kinds grow to weigh forty 
to fifty pounds each on good soil. 
(Four pounds of seed to the acre.)
