ABBOTT & COBB 
Early Lentz 
This stock of beet has been grown and selected by a Bucks 
County market gardener. He has gone to considerable trouble 
and expense to grow this stock of seed for us, and it can now be 
relied upon to be absolutely true to the type. Color is rather 
light, quality excellent; in fact, one of the best table beets wci 
know of. Matures very early.

Detroit Dark Red (Late) 
Turnip shaped beet of a very rich red color, largely used by Market 
Gardeners and Canners. Flesh is very red throughout. Our stock of this 
important variety is very fine.

Model Red Globe 
This is a similar beet to Eclipse, except that it is a trifle later. Per- 
fect globe shape, with a rich crimson color. Flavor is fine and sweet. 
Beets are uniform in shape, with a rather heavy top. Fine middle-season 
variety.

Bastin’s Half Long 
We have been working for some time to get a first-class stock 
of this variety, and the result is we now have an excellent stock 
to offer. This beet is grown principally in and around Philadel- 
phia County for winter or storing purposes. The roots are dark 
red, very smooth and uniform in shape. The quality of this beet 
is also very fine. It retains its tenderness longer than most va- 
rieties. The tops are rather heavy, making a fine appearance 
while growing.

Swiss Chard 
Giant Lucullus 
This is a variety of beet grown exclusively for its large tender leaves. 
Light-color leaves, cut and cooked the same as spinach. If cut within four 
inches from the ground it will regrow and produce another large crop. 
This can be done throughout the entire season. Also a valuable crop to 
grow for poultry feeding.
