Beside the above Prizes the letters received from customers confirm Carters Invicta 
as a splendid variety for exhibiting. 
“ I won First Prize in the Guildford Foot Crop Competition for five acres of Carters Holborn Invicta Swedes, also Second 
Prize in Open Class, and Second Prize in the Special Class for Roots at the Chertsey Show, being beaten in both cases by another 
exhibitor of your Holborn Invicta Swede. Indeed this variety was considered the best Swede shown. — A. D., f hertsey, 1909. 
Mr. John W. Dryden, who won F'irst Prize for best managed farm in Durham and Northumberland, writes : — “ The judges 
seemed delighted with your Invicta Swedes when they went over my farm. The roots possess size, shape, <jualily, and arc grand 
keepers. I have won several prizes with them during the past three years.” — Seaham Harbour, 1908. 
THE SWEDE FOR HEAVY CROPS. 
Wc drew 79 large cart loads of your Invicta Swedes from one acre, and, we think, you will agree that this is a heavy crop 
considering the bad year, but we have had larger and heavier ones in better seasons. We like the light coloured top. 
W. H. R., Guildford, 1911. r 1 1 r i -j u i 
“ They arc the finest crop of Swedes I have ever grown in my life, even customers of other seed firms have said they have 
never seen better. The weight from the whole field averaged well over 50 tons ])cr acre.’ T.P., Kornfoid, 1910 
“ I grew a nice crop last year of 3 acres of Invicta Swedes, 60 tons per acre, and all good solid roots which kept till May. 
This year they promise even better.” — J. G., Co. Down, 1910. 
THE SWEDE TO KEEP WELL. 
“ I must say that I am well pleased with your Holborn Invicta Swede ; they kept very sound until the lime I finished using 
them, that being the end of May. I cannot speak too highly of them.” — P. II., Wanirglon, 1911. 
“ The Invicta always give us satisfaction and we find that they come equal, and even more than what you claim them to be. 
There is nothing to beat them for keeping.” — D. P. & Sons, Brecknockshire, 1910. ^ 
“ I have seen no Swedes which keej) so well as your Holborn Invicta i we ha\’e used them continually since December, and have 
only just finished feeding them. In over ico tons we have not seen a single rotten one and the last were as solid and sweet as the 
first used.” — B. P. , Aldhorough, 1909.
